Chloe Burrows entered the Love Island villa on day two as a bombshell, but after less than a week of the show, her family have revealed that Chloe has received ‘hundreds’ of death threats.
After Chloe chose to recouple with Aaron during the week, Shannon Singh was left single which led to her being shockingly dumped from the villa – read what Shannon has to say about that here.
As Chloe’s friends and family are currently running her social media accounts, they took to her Instagram Stories to urge people to be kind online, while revealing that her DMs have been flooded with abuse and death threats since the recoupling.
“This morning we woke up to yet another DM encouraging Chloe to kill herself – there have been hundreds. Have the deaths of Sophie [Gradon], Mike [Thalassitis] and Caroline [Flack] taught us nothing?
“People are flooding her inbox threatening to kill her themselves. People… this is a GAME show, there is a cash prize!”
They continued, “We understand the frustration surrounding @shannonsinghhh’s eviction – we feel it too but Chloe does not deserve to DIE because Shannon had to leave the Villa!
“She will have had no idea of the repercussions of her decision prior to making it.
“We are not naive. We know that this post won’t put an end to trolling. Our hope is that this just reminds some of you to #bekind”, they added.
Today, a post from the Love Island official Instagram page was also shared on Chloe’s story. Reading: “We want Love Island to be a positive experience for all of our cast and their friends and family members.
“Last night’s episode created strong reactions but some viewers’ posts were wholly unacceptable. We take these matters extremely seriously and will support cast members and their families in reporting such posts.
“We would once again urge all of our viewers to think before posting, and remember that our Islanders are people with feelings.”
