Read our privacy policy Broadcasting watchdog Ofcom has received almost 800 complaints about ITV2 reality show Love Island since Friday. How many times does a guy have to say no!” An Ofcom spokeswoman said: “We will assess these complaints against our broadcasting rules, but are yet to decide whether or not to investigate.” Earlier today Love Island contestant Sherif Lanre revealed more details about his shock removal from the reality series days after accusing the show of “unconscious racism”.
