Love Island bosses have added new protocols for duty of care

Love Island contestants will have to undergo language and behaviour training before they enter the villa this summer.

The discussions will also tackle topics including creating safe spaces and being a good ally.

It's part of the production team's duty of care protocols.

Ade Rawcliffe, group director of diversity and inclusion at ITV, said:

"The world we live in is changing every day, and we want all of our islanders to feel they are part of an inclusive environment in the villa.

Laura Whitmore's back hosting the series.

Among the processes detailed for all contributors on Love Island are:

  • "comprehensive psychological support"
  • "detailed conversations regarding the impact of participation on the show"
  • and a "proactive aftercare package"

Before entering the show, contestants will watch a video on how to cope being filmed 24 hours a day and dealing with social media trolling.
