Love Island in new fix row as fans fume over voting twist and vow to switch off
LOVE Island has become embroiled in a new fix row, with fans fuming over a voting twist.
ITV2 viewers threatened to switch off after Islanders were given the power to choose who was sent home out of the bottom three.
Last night’s explosive episode saw Scott Van Der Sluis and Abi Moores dumped from the island after the public vote left the pair along with Zach, Molly, Mitch, and Ella B vulnerable.
The islanders chose Scott and Abi as the least compatible after naming their connection a “friendship couple”.
Twitter users were left frustrated by the move, venting their anger on the social media platform.
One wrote, “What a total joke and a fix why are they allowed to pick Scott and Abi when Mitch should have gone!”
Another added, “Well. That’s a fix if I’ve ever seen one. And I’m not one of these “oh it’s a fix” people. I’m done with #LoveIsland.”
Someone else agreed, “Absolute joke. Let the public choose not the couples . What an edited fix I’m done. And we always get sucked in joke.”
A fourth fumed, “FIX……because I bet Abi and Scott came third but producers have s**t out and decided to not let that happen, what’s the point in a public vote if the islanders are choosing anyway. It’s a fix.”
It comes after The Sun revealed Love Island bosses have made the shock decision to cancel the iconic baby challenge.
For the past nine years, the final couples have been tasked with looking after crying ‘babies’ for the whole day.
An insider said: “It’s not happening this year – but the show has seen loads of new tasks and challenges that fans have loved.”
