Love Island: All Stars has been hit with 200 complaints to broadcast watchdog Ofcom after another bullying row on the ITV2 show left viewers outraged. 

The villa descended into chaos during Wednesday night’s episode, with the girls’ furious bust-up leading to Belle Hassan swearing and storming out.

It came after her co-star Lucinda Strafford found herself in hot water when she stole Sean Stone from Belle – with the tables then turning when Belle made a play for Scott van-der-Sluis, despite his romance with Leanne Amaning.

Earlier this week, viewers watched on as Belle pulled Scott for a chat in the Secret Garden, leaving Leanne in shock as she and Lucinda watched on.

And it sparked a huge row between FIVE of the Islanders last night, as Lucinda then asked Belle to talk to confront her ‘double standards’.

The ongoing drama has sparked a series of complaints to Ofcom by fans watching at home – as Lucinda and Belle’s spat dragged on into another episode.

On February 6, a total of 120 complaints were registered to the regulator, with a number of viewers noting Belle’s conduct as the reason for their complaint, according to The Sun. 

It followed 53 complaints sent over the episode on February 3, after Belle and Sean were seen having a spat over Sean Stone on screen, locking horns in front of show host Maya Jama around the fire pit. 

Belle launched a furious rant at Lucinda before breaking down in tears, saying that her co-star had ‘stolen’ the sweet seller from her after the Villa USA shake-up. 

It came to loggerheads again on Wednesday night, as Belle shouted at Lucinda: ‘What are you sticking your nose in for? Stop making every situation about you.’

‘Lucinda, f**k off, man, I’m not f**king doing this with you, it’s none of your f**king business, and stay out of it,’ she added, storming off. 

The row continued through the evening as the group of girls then clashed again inside the villa, with Belle continuing: ‘I’m done with morals in this place… I am f**king angry. F**k this, what am I doing here?’ 

Lying on the ground outside of the villa, Belle was then seen breaking down in tears to Samie Elishi as she asked: ‘Who are you lot to question my morals?’ 

During Belle and Lucinda’s first fiery clash last week, fans were quick to flood social media with complaints, hitting out at Belle for ‘bullying’.

The ongoing drama has sparked a series of complaints to Ofcom by fans watching at home - as Lucinda and Belle's spat dragged on into another episode

It came to loggerheads again on Wednesday night, as Belle shouted at Lucinda: 'What are you sticking your nose in for? Stop making every situation about you'

One penned on X, formerly Twitter: ‘Belle is out of order for her behaviour against Lucinda. She hated her from the start and now is using Sean to not look like a bully.’

Another chimed in: ‘I understand Belle being upset there just comes to a point where they’re just bullying Lucinda…’ to which another added: ‘Now Belle feels like a bully.’

Someone else posted on Reddit: ‘Belle has gone being a really cool islander to an angry bully exactly as you say.’

Others stepped in to defend Belle, with one writing: ‘To say Belle is a bully is laughable. She stands her ground and shouts the loudest but that doesn’t make her an bully.’

Lucinda’s mother even stepped in to defend her daughter online amid the row, writing on Instagram: ‘That was a disgusting piece of TV. 

‘The production team should be ashamed of themselves. Lucinda didn’t deserve to be violated like that. Disgusting. What a horrid crowd of people.’

The family released a statement, continuing: ‘We just wanted to remind everyone that Love Island is a TV show. It’s about exploring connections and being true to yourself, which is exactly what Lucinda is doing.

‘The hate she’s receiving is not okay on any level. Please remember that she will be coming out of the villa and seeing these comments, just like her family and friends are too.

Lying on the ground outside of the villa, Belle was then seen breaking down in tears to Samie Elishi as she asked: 'Who are you lot to question my morals?'

During Belle and Lucinda's first fiery clash last week, fans were quick to flood social media with complaints, hitting out at Belle for 'bullying' Lucinda (pictured)

‘Words have impact, and this kind of negativity is unkind and damaging. Let’s remember to be kind. Not only to Lucinda, but to everyone’. 

It comes after Love Island: All Stars was slapped with a whopping 1,700 complaints after viewers were left appalled by what’s been going on in the villa.

Fans were left feeling uncomfortable by the on-screen clashes and even took to Ofcom to complain over the Scott van-der-Sluis and Sean Stone feud. 

The pair hadn’t seen eye to eye since footballer Scott entered the villa as a bombshell on day one, and branded the sweet business owner the ‘worst Islander ever’.

Days later they clashed again and Sean was left in tears and accused Scott of bullying him in very tense scenes, after Scott called his behaviour ‘snakey’. 

Many watching at home have been left feeling uncomfortable and took to regulator to share their worries. 

According to The Sun, on January 27 2026 (when the argument was on our screens), Ofcom received 1,590 complaints. The regulator also got 152 on January 26 2026.
