Love Island’s latest episode has left fans absolutely gobsmacked and reaching for the phone to dial Ofcom after some “disgusting” scenes unfolded on the hit ITV2 show.
The Twittersphere, now known as X, was ablaze with irate viewers slamming the show’s producers for bombarding them with cringeworthy close-ups of semi-pro footballer Ronnie Vint getting his smooch on in the villa and let’s just say, the 27-year-old lad from south east London isn’t exactly winning any popularity contests back home.
Ronnie’s already been in hot water with fans over how he treated Harriet Blackmore, his previous match, especially after he ditched her for new bombshell Tiffany Leighton, one of three fresh faces who strutted into the villa last Friday.

But the real kicker came when he planted a kiss on Tiffany during a dare, all while Harriet watched, and then seemed to chuckle right in his former flame’s face a move that had viewers branding him “cruel” and demanding he be chucked out of the villa for his “disgraceful” behaviour.

And if that wasn’t enough to ruffle feathers, footage from a steamy surprise night in Casa Amor showed Ronnie all but devouring Tiffany’s face, prompting even more outrage from those watching. One viewer vented: “Production… please stop showing close ups of Ronnie kissing! It’s disgusting and makes me want to throw up! I BEGGGG PLEASE. Signed, a concerned viewer! ” Another was left questioning: “Is Ronnie kissing or licking her mouth? #LoveIsland.”
And a third didn’t hold back, suggesting: “Ronnie needs some serious kissing lessons #LoveIsland.” One viewer commented: “Ronnie really is a serious player. He’s kissing any girl with a pulse at this point #LoveIsland.”

Another chimed in: ” Why is Ronnie’s lizard tongue straight out the second he starts kissing would put me right off! #LoveIsland.” While another threatened: “Calling Ofcom now! #LoveIsland.”
Fans are speculating that Ronnie isn’t on the show for love, but rather for a lads’ holiday, and they’re warning that his antics could backfire, especially if his kisses with Tiff are revealed during the notorious Movie Night.

As soon as Tiff arrived in the villa on Friday night, Ronnie was quick to make his move. He confessed that their kiss was the highlight of his game, much to Harriett’s dismay, and even laughed in her face knowing she was upset.
As he left the villa for a sleepover twist with Tiffany and others, he acted as if Harriett didn’t exist, asking: “Who’s Harriet? ” This was despite him being seen cuddling up to Harriet in the days before.
Although it’s still early days for Ronnie and Tiff, some viewers have accused him of leading Harriett on, suspecting he’s about to ditch her for Tiffany. Fans will have to wait until tonight’s episode to see what unfolds when Ronnie and Tiff return to the main villa after their night in Casa Amor….
