Love Island will not pay an on-air tribute to tragic Mike Thalassitis next month
She said: “She was a gorgeous person both inside and out. Everyone's thoughts here at Love Island are with Sophie's friends and family at this really terrible time. Sophie we will never forget you.”Former Love Island contestants Sophie Gradon also committed suicide
A tribute message also appeared at the start of the episode that aired on the day Sophie passed, aged 32. Love Island bosses announced they were making changes to their aftercare policy following the deaths of Mike and Sophie, who was confirmed to have committed suicide in an inquest last month. In a letter to The Sun, creative director Richard Cowles said therapy would now be available to “all Islanders and not only those that reach out to us.”ExclusiveExclusiveCRACKING SHOWBusty Carol Vorderman, 58, wows in figure-hugging dress for family weddingHe said: “When something so awful happens we naturally enter a period of soul searching and ask whether anything could have been done.”
Two weeks after Mike’s death, ITV exec Carolyn McCall claimed there was only an “extremely tenuous” link between Love Island and the tragedy.
