Ofcom won’t investigate complaints over Love Island’s Maura Higgins

Ofcom will not investigate the complaints about Love Island’s Maura Higgins’ advances towards Tommy Fury.
The UK communications regulator’s decision comes after 709 viewers alleged the 28-year-old model had "sexually harassed" the 20-year-old boxer when she tried to kiss him as he lay on the sofa and declined her advances.
Tommy was coupled up with social media influencer Molly-Mae Hague at the time, and still is.
A spokesperson previously said of the complaints: "We will assess these complaints against our broadcasting rules, but are yet to decide whether or not to investigate."
However, the regulator has now insisted the episode had been "assessed under generally accepted standards".
A spokeswoman told the BBC: "While we recognise that many viewers disapproved of a contestant’s behaviour in this episode, we took into account the context in which it occurred, including the nature of Maura and Tommy’s relationship, before and after."
However, Ofcom are still undecided about whether to investigate the show over other controversial moments, such as more than 300 complaints from people objecting to Joe Garratt’s treatment of partner Lucie Donlan.
The axed Islander was accused of demonstrating "possessive behaviour" when he appeared to suggest she spend more time with the girls in the villa after spending time with Tommy.
Despite the complaints, Joe recently insisted he is "gutted" viewers perceived his actions as abusive, and insists he was only "trying to help her" because she was having "a hard time" on the show.
He previously said: "I didn’t manipulate or abuse her. I am gutted that it has been perceived in that way because it wasn’t like that at all.
"I always had Lucie’s best interests at heart and I promise you I would do everything and anything to help her because she had a hard time in there and didn’t get on with the girls.
"I was trying to help her and make her experience as amazing as possible. I thought I did right."
