Love Island’s biggest Ofcom complaints
Love Island has been hit with thousands of complaints over the years – here are the most moaned about moments
Dani’s tears: In 2018, Ofcom received 2,644 complaints when Dani Dyer was left in floods of tears over Jack Fincham during the Casa Amor.
Viewers felt the show had been manipulated to make it appear Jack was going to cheat, when in fact he wasn’t. And poor Dani didn’t learn the truth for days.
Maura fury: Although she later won over the public, Maura Higgins got off to a bad start in 2019. After arriving as a bombshell, she made a beeline for Tommy Fury – who was coupled up with Molly-Mae Hague – and tried to kiss him while straddling him on a daybed. 709 people accused her actions of being ‘sexual harassment’.
Faye explodes: The 2021 series of Love Island remains the most complained series about yet. 4,330 complaints were made to Ofcom after Faye Winter received a postcard from Casa Amor, which appeared to show her fella Teddy Soares kissing a bombshell.
But a whopping 24,763 complaints flooded in when Faye came face-to-face with Teddy again. Faye’s shocking outburst even sparked a reaction from male domestic abuse charity, ManKind Initiative, who branded her ‘unacceptable’.
Bish bash: The following year, the fallout from Movie Night sparked 3,617 Ofcom complaints. Fans of the show were horrified by Luca Bish’s harsh reaction when Gemma Owen was shown speaking to bombshell Billy Brown.
Muggy Mitch: Almost 1,000 Ofcom complaints flooded in from viewers unimpressed with Mitchel Taylor’s treatment of Abi Moores.
They felt he was ‘targeting’ her and even urged Love Island bosses to check on Abi’s ‘mental health and welfare’.
There were also 29 complaints related to concerns for Harry after seeing him upset following his breakup with Helena and disclosing his feelings for Shakira.
But the majority came from viewers who were left furious at the way Shakira had been treated by some of her fellow Islanders.
This comes after the 2025 series of Love Island came to an epic conclusion on Monday night.
Toni and Cach were crowned as the reigning champions and took home a £50K cheque.
Shakira and Harry were the runners up, and Yasmin and Jamie came third.
Placing fourth was Angel and Ty.
