Love Island hit with threats of Ofcom complaints after Ron makes ‘triggering’ comments to Lana
LOVE Island fans are threatening to complain to Ofcom about Ron Hall’s behaviour towards Lana Jenkins.
Viewers have accused the financial adviser of “gaslighting” Lana and are considering contacting the television watchdog.
It comes after Ron, 26, told Lana she had “f***ed up” and made a “mistake” after she didn’t pick him in the latest recoupling.
Having pulled the 25-year-old make-up artist to one side in the garden, he criticised her decision to choose Casey O’Gorman, 26, and told her “I know I’m better”.
Fans were horrified by the scenes and some have even contacted Ofcom on Twitter, claiming his behaviour is “triggering”.
One viewer tweeted: “@Ofcom Ron is acting in a manner that is triggering ladies all over the land, please can you look into this #LoveIsland.”
Another posted a ‘red flag’ emoji and wrote: “’You did f** up’, Lana run. I want to put in an Ofcom complaint because that is mental abusiveness right there.”
Also threatening to contact the watchdog, a third said: “Writing a complaint to ofcom bc of this lana and Ron thing..going on for over 2 weeks!!!”
A fourth added: “Ofcom gonna get something about Ron’s gaslighting manipulative behaviour.”
And someone else begged: “But Ron, it is you that has been checking for every single girl in FRONT OF LANA. Somebody call OFCOM asap.”
During Sunday night’s episode of Love Island, Lana was seen picking Casey in the latest recoupling.
Despite having bounced back and forth between her for two weeks, Ron was clearly unhappy about her decision.
Monday night’s episode focused on the fallout of her decision – and Ron’s feelings about it.
Fans watched as Lana asked Ron if she could chat to him shortly after the recoupling ended, but he refused.
Seconds later, he pulled Casey to one side and gave him his ‘blessing’ to pursue Lana.
Later in the episode, Ron pulled Lana to one side and told her she had “f***ed up” with her decision.
Lana appeared to be swayed by what he said, later telling the girls that she hasn’t walked away from him for good.
A preview for Tuesday night’s instalment sees Lana telling Ron she made a ‘rash decision’ by choosing Casey.
Love Island continues at 9pm, ITV1/ ITVX, Tuesday February 7
