Love Island viewing figures revealed for final as ITV2 show receives ratings boost

The viewing figures for the final of the latest series of Love Island have been revealed. The ITV2 reality dating show wrapped up its latest outing on Monday night when Toni Laties and Cach Mercer were voted the nation's favourite couple and walked off with the £50,000 prize.

And on Tuesday, it was revealed that the grand finale had pulled in 1.3million viewers, up 300,000 from the All Stars spin-off that aired earlier this year. Along with series 10 in 2023, the figure now holds the joint-highest position since series eight, which was won by Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu in 2022, and pulled in a solid three million viewers.

The latest series has seen the highest number of complaints to Ofcom since the 2022 series. A total of 9,339 complaints were made to the broadcasting regulator in this vein whilst a further 298 were made about the way Blu spoke to Toni.

Elsewhere, there were 55 complaints about Megan returning to the villa following her democratic dumping and a further 29 complaints expressed their concern for Harry following his breakup with Helena as he opened up about his feelings for Shakira. It comes after Harry's weird fetish on the show had fans left feeling disgusted for a very specific reason.

One Islander to face criticism from viewers was Harrison, who quit the series three weeks before the final. Amid his stint on Love Island, a spokesperson for the women's charity issued a statement to the Tab, which included mention of women being "lied to, slut-shamed and manipulated, as well as laughed at behind their backs" during their time on the show.

Harrison then addressed the "backlash" in an interview with the Daily Mail, saying he has found it "hard to digest". He told the outlet: "I would disagree with a lot of it in terms of my respect for women, I do respect women."

He said that the "worst" reaction had been from Women's Aid. He said: "I know myself and the girls on the show too, Toni said she knows I'm not a bad person, just went about situations in the wrong way, but the Women's Aid statement wasn't nice ... it's not nice coming out of the villa to my mum upset by that so I would say that's been the hardest."

Harrison said that he is "sorry" to the women that he has "hurt," before saying that he "got it wrong". He added that the "back and forth" between his connections with Lauren and Toni ended up causing "more harm" than he intended. He however said that it wasn't "an ego thing".

The former islander said he isn't proud of the way he handled things in the villa and won't "make excuses". Harrison said that he just wants to "own it" and assured: "If people can give me the space to grow from it, I will do everything I can to be better, and that's the only thing I can do."
