According to reports, Love Island bosses are locking this year’s contestants down for 24 hours before they re-enter the outside world.
The Sun have reported that all of the finalists will have to undergo a day of training, which will include advice on how to use social media and how to handle their money.
The day of training has been introduced following the deaths of Sophie Gradon and Mike Thalassitis.
A source told the paper, ‘Bosses are leaving no stone unturned this year. Whereas the first day of freedom after the villa was historically a free-for-all, they are now making everyone stay put and have a ‘down day’ with bespoke sessions.
‘There was a feeling they let them loose too soon and with not enough advice so they’re just changing it entirely this year.
‘It’s a day of adjusting back to civilian life. Their lives aren’t going to be the same again so experts will be on hand for any questions or worries they have.’
Contestants, when they return to England, will also have to undergo a minimum of eight therapy sessions, with the team checking in with islanders for 14 months, whether they ask for it or not.
Amy Hartpreviously told Grazia about the aftercare, 'I can’t fault the support. People have had a lot of bad things to say about them and they might have upped the aftercare, but it’s the same team who’ve worked on the show for five years. I don’t agree with the criticism – they are amazing.’
