What’s Love Island got to do with her death though ?

I understand she was an alcoholic , suffering depression and was worried about the court case ..

I do think the only reason Love Island has had so many suicides in quick succession and things like BB didn't was social media. Reality TV was tough enough back when it all started, but now they really can't escape the judgement online and off.

Nobody said it definitely has a correlation but this is a good time to think of the mental health of current and future contestants.

I agree the show does need more body diversity not just 1 person but you then have to think of the trolls will they be able to handle it?

That is a very good point, but unfortunately no matter what you look like it’s likely you’ll get trolled if you go on reality TV. I saw a lot more tweets defending Shaughna than attacking her, in fact I only saw she was being trolled because of people condemning a nasty tweet about her in the replies. Also if there was more body diversity, those without a ‘perfect’ body wouldn’t stand out as much.

Get rid and return to 1 CBB every january (with civi BB returning in about 5 years)


What’s the difference...CBB and BB come with the same scrutiny. Maybe it’s time to put an end to all reality TV. One comment or opinion of a contestant can bring catastrophic results and obviously the psycological tests they have prior to going on these shows are not good enough.

Toxic devil program , it needs to go !.

It's utter trash no idea why it's popular :bored: .

Sure, but not because of anything to do with Caroline's death. Hers was in no way related.

Mike and Sophie... I have no idea because I don't even watch the show. What I do wonder though is how many more people will it take to kill themselves before it's stopped? I guess the truth is, we don't really fully know their reasons and what caused them to commit suicide. The same applies for the guy on Jeremy Kyle. Can't understand how that show wasn't allowed to air anymore yet Love Island is though. :think:

In 2018, there were 6,507 suicides registered in the UK, an age-standardised rate of 11.2 deaths per 100,000 population
11 per 100,000 in the population.

So, not seeing correlation in 3 out of a group of just 150 is bizarre to me.

This really.

It doesn't look like the show puts much care into people's mental health.

ITV has bent over backwards for their male stars in trouble so i dont understand why they shunned her and didn't give her the help she clearly needed

Big Brother can stay dead. I will never forgive the public for awarding Cameron the win over Sian.

That is obvious.

Look at The JK show , it took a suicide for them to Axe! that. And that was a mockery freak show.

LI is extremely superficial & shallow , producers don't care about the mental health of these people. They're just pieces of meat to them.

It's basically a show that promotes being perfect looking and those who are not perfect are bullied on Social Media for the way they look.

How is Love Island to blame though ?

Your figures are really down to 2 in however many ... so pure coincidence for those two ?

I’m only surmising , I know zero about the other two individuals.

It’s essentially a breeding ground for normalising toxic relationships, body and mental health issues, it’s a show that teaches you that you have to be or look a certain way in order to feel wanted, loved or accepted, yes the people who go on there attribute to that all because they want a bit of fame, but the only people to blame are the producers who specifically choose these people to exploit them, like people have said already, if 3 people from the same class or school had killed themselves in this same time period, there would be massive investigations and for a channel that has prided itself on its mental health campaign, they’re certainly lapping up this show that is associated with so many suicides and I personally find it shameful.
