Love Island’s Laura Whitmore defends herself from ‘humiliation’ criticism
Laura Whitmore has been criticised by Love Island fans.
On the departure show, Aftersun, Laura Whitmore introduced Remi Lambert.
Due to such a short stint on Love Island, Remi didn’t have the opportunity to really show who he was, apart from one freestyle rap.
So on Aftersun, Whitmore asked Remi to do another one. The contestant was unable to think of a final line leading fans to criticise Laura.
One said: “Hope #LoveIsland supports Remi. He looked broken on #Loveislandaftersun. Asking him to rap was done in bad faith and to humiliate. I thought @thewhitmore & crew were supposed to ‘BE KIND’”
Laura responded defending herself though: “Remi is a rapper and asked in good faith in advance if he’d rap and prepare something which he did.”
She added: “Live Telly is nerve wrecking, believe me, so maybe he was a bit nervous but he deserved to have his time. Also I want to make Remi & Afia happen!”
