Broadcasting regulator Ofcom has reported that the Wednesday July 24 show received 1,831 complaints.

And the following episode saw 168 furious fans get in touch.

Last week Joey Essex and Sean Stone were slammed by viewers who accused them of “bullying” Mimii and Josh with continuous digs over their romance.

During the game A Couple of Sorts, the Islanders were tasked with guessing where the public had ranked them in a series of categories.

But Joey and Sean teamed up to try and cruelly humiliate Josh.

The group argued over which couple is staying together just to win the show.

Josh said: “I don’t think it should be anyone who was in the most genuine,” referring to him and Mimii who received the most votes in that category.

Joey then brutally brought up the “secret mission” – when he tried to get Ayo Odukoya to meet Mimii on the terrace – and said that Mimii only ran back to Josh because she didn’t get Ayo following their chat.

A furious Mimii slammed Joey for dragging up the past and twisting things.

She told him: “Joey you’re p****** me off, we had a conversation and we sorted it out. You’re actually a d***head.

“You’re actually boring, that’s the only thing you can say.”

One fan wrote on social media: “Joey bullied Grace [Jackson] throughout her stay in there and never apologised.

“Sean has constantly harassed and bullied Mimi and Josh, it’s irritating how some people are making it look like Mimi hasn’t been minding her business and Sean has been poking her.

“Mimi is the calmest girl on the show but when she react now she’s the problem.”
