Love Island 'isn't to blame' for Mike Thalassitis' death - Olivia Attwood
Olivia Attwood has said that their movie titled Love Island is not in any way a contributīng factor to his co-actor Mike Thalassitis death.
Mike starred alongside Olivia in series three of the ITV2 dating show – the pair were locked in a bit of a love triangle with Olivia’s ex-boyfriend Chris Hughes on the show and didn’t stay in touch when the series wrapped. Footballer Mike was found dead in woodland near his Essex home on Saturday morning. Police confirmed the reality star took his own life and after news broke of his death, tributes poured in for Mike from both fans and fellow stars. Love Island bosses have since confirmed that they are making changes to the show and have outlined new safeguarding plans for the islanders that take part, following Mike’s death and Sophie Gradon’s death last year. The decision came after fans and former Love Island stars called out the show for not providing adequate aftercare, but Olivia has said it is ‘totally ludicrous to blame’ the series for Mike’s death.
