Love Island fans have been left furious and demanding action after bombshell Tommy Murphy’s behaviour during Sunday night’s episode sparked widespread backlash.

The Newcastle-based builder and model made an immediate impact in the villa by kissing two girls in one day — not including his unsuccessful attempt to lock lips with a third. However, it was his interaction with Namibia that has drawn the strongest criticism, leaving many viewers uncomfortable and calling for his removal from the show.

During the episode, Tommy pulled Namibia to the terrace for a private chat and quickly expressed his desire to kiss her. When she made her position clear — responding, “Now? It wouldn’t happen, no, [Ellie] would be p***ed off” — Tommy ignored her hesitation. He pulled her closer, grabbed her by the neck, and kissed her anyway.

The moment triggered an immediate wave of concern among fans, with many describing the scene as coercive.

Taking to TikTok, one viewer wrote: “Tommy forcing Namibia into that after she inherently said No several times was weird and coercive asf.”

Another commented: “I felt so uncomfortable for her,” while a third added, “it was sooo uncomfortable to watch.”

“Get him out of that villa neowwwww,” demanded another fan, with several others echoing the call for producers to intervene.

Tommy had kissed his current coupling partner Ellie just hours earlier in the daytime. He also confided in the boys that he fancied Priya the most and attempted to kiss her too — making it three attempts in a single day. Priya rejected his advances, calling the move disrespectful after seeing him with Ellie.

While Tommy appeared keen to keep his kiss with Namibia under wraps, the secret is unlikely to last. In a first-look teaser for Monday night’s episode, Ellie is seen fuming at Tommy for his dishonesty, as the couple erupts in their first major feud.

The Sun has reached out to ITV for comment on the controversial scenes.

The intense reaction highlights ongoing discussions around consent and boundaries in the Love Island villa, with fans urging producers to address Tommy’s conduct more firmly. As the drama unfolds, viewers will be watching closely to see how the Islanders — and the show — respond to the fallout.
