Chloe's family plead with Love Island viewers to stop shocking online abuse

Chloe has received hundreds of death threats online

Author: Alex RossPublished 1st Jul 2021

The family of Love Island 2021 Islander Chloe Burrows have taken to her social media pages to plead with viewers after receiving shocking online abuse since her arrival as a bombshell into the villa.

Chloe's family, who have taken control of her social media pages, have been subject to vile messages from online trolls, with hundreds even sending the 25-year-old death threats.

Pleading online with Chloe's followers, her family and friends wrote: 'Morning everyone, Chloe's family & friends here. We hate to introduce ourselves under such vile circumstances but we've had enough, after just 3 episodes.

'We all have thick skin but the amount of trolling Chloe has been receiving is absolutely disgusting. This morning we woke up to yet another DM encouraging Chloe to kill herself - there have been HUNDREDS. Have the deaths of Sophie, Mike and Caroline taught us nothing?

'Not only that, but people are flooding her inbox threatening to kill her themselves. People... this is a GAME show, there is a cash prize!

'We understand the frustration surrounding @shannongsinghhh's eviction - we feel it too! She didn't deserve to leave so early 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 naĂŻve. We know that this post won't put an end to trolling. All the advice we get is to 'ignore it' and 'block the trolls', sometimes it's not that easy. Our hope is that this just reminds some of you to #BeKind.'

After arriving into the villa as the first bombshell of the series, Chloe was forced to 'steal' one of the boys during last night's tense show.

The financial services marketing executive chose to couple up with Aaron, consequently sending Shannon home after just 48 hours in the villa.

Following the heartbreaking deaths of former Islanders Sophie Gradon and Mike Thalassitis, and former presenter Caroline Flack, Love Island bosses posted a message online before the new series kicked off, urging viewers to be kind.

The message read: 'Tomorrow we will be revealing the cast for Love Island 2021...

'These Islanders are all single and ready to find love. We can't wait to watch them get to know each other, date, and maybe even find the one.

'We're so grateful they're letting us follow their journey this summer. We hope you enjoy the show, but please think before you post.'
