PIERS Morgan has claimed Love Island’s Maura Higgins should be arrested after she kissed Tommy Fury when he told her ‘no’.

Fans were horrified when she straddled the boxer and tried to kiss him – despite his protests – with 500 complaints being made to telly watchdog Ofcom.

Piers raged on Good Morning Britain today: “What part of ‘no’ means no? What part did he not communicate there, it’s clear premeditated assault, she needs to be arrested.

“Poor Tommy, he looks utterly traumatised.”

He went on: “She’s known as Maura the predator. If this was a bloke she’d be out of there, arrested, career ruined. She’s still in there.  Tommy looked like a victim.”

However, Kate Garraway reasoned: “Isn’t that the whole set up of the show. They’re forced into it?”

A staggering 486 viewers objected to her “predatory” behaviour, which saw many calling for her to be removed for “sexually harassing” the boxer.

The uncomfortable scenes, which aired on Friday night, saw Maura press herself on the 20-year-old while he was stretched out on the sofa.

He was heard saying no and trying to swerve the kiss, with viewers tweeting: “Maura is like a bloody predator. Forcing herself on Tommy like that is wrong.”

Maura asked Tommy if he wanted to get “frisky” under the covers and admitted he gave her “f***y flutters”

But red-faced Tommy said he wanted to “get to know her first” and would kiss her “when the time is right”.

Refusing to take no for an answer, Maura tracked Tommy down to the sofa, where he was settling down for bed.

The persistent 28-year-old, who works as a boxing ring girl, was then seen pestering him to kiss her.

Love Island has been the subject of 794 complaints since Friday – with a little over 300 viewers concerned at the treatment of surfer Lucie Donlan.

She broke down in tears on last night’s show after Joe Garratt told her off for talking to boys in the villa.
