Niall Aslam recently called out the producers of Love Island, telling them to practise what they preach after the official Love Island Instagram page released a statement in the wake of trolling and death threats to Chloe Burrows's social media accounts, which were being monitored by her friends and family at the time. Burrows's arrival on the show and decision to couple up with Aaron Francis meant his original partner, Shannon Singh, was voted off the island after just two days, leaving many fans upset. Under the official Instagram statement, Aslam commented: "Don't watch the show anymore after everything but assuming you've messed with someone mentally and posting about being nice? Practice what you preach."
This came after Aslam — who appeared on series four in 2018 with the likes of Kendall Rae Knight and Dani Dyer — was flown to a psychiatric ward after after suffering from stress-induced psychosis just nine days into his stay on the island. "I spent two weeks there on the psychiatric ward, where I was placed on lots of medication to try to help me recover, followed by months of care from the crisis team at home," he recently wrote in an article for Grazia.
