Love Island contestant Haris Namani has been kicked off the ITV show. It comes after a video of him allegedly being involved in a 'street brawl' has emerged.
Despite this, it is being claimed Haris was given the boot in a dumping rather than on producers' orders. The booting comes just days after he was involved in a spat with fellow Love Islander Shaq Mohammad.
Chronicle Live reports viewers who tuned into Monday's episode of the ITV dating show were left speculating the young boxer had 'gone missing' when Haris was nowhere to be seen, as love interest Olivia Jenkins clashed with Zara Lackenby-Brown.

And his 'absence' came just as a video, appearing to show a street fight in Doncaster. A Love Island insider told The Sun: "Haris was booted off Love Island last night. There was a dumping and he got the chop. It is, in part, a relief for the show's bosses in light of the video of Haris in a street fight."
At the end of Monday's show, narrator Iain Stirling informed viewers that a dumping was looming and they had to play a part by voting for their favourite Islanders, with the two with the least votes being put at risk of being given the chop.
Love Island is refusing to reveal whether Haris has left the villa or not, with a spokesperson for the show saying: "We would never comment on dumpings or show formats to avoid ruining the show for the viewers."
