GEMMA Collins wants Love Island to be cancelled after Caroline Flack’s “devastating” death.
The 39-year-old spoke out about Caroline’s suicide after it was revealed ITV is advertising for its summer series.
Caroline was forced to quit hosting the show’s first ever winter series in South Africa after being charged with assaulting her boyfriend Lewis Burton.
She was found dead at home weeks before her trial in court.
Gemma told the Guardian Love Island bosses need to have a “rethink” about bringing back the show.
“Maybe they should pull it off air,” she suggested.
“Theyve had three people pass its got a taint over it.
After hearing Caroline had taken her own life, Gemma said she couldn’t stop thinking about the Love Island presenter.
Its absolutely devastating,” she said.
“No one knows exactly what went on, but it did affect me…
The press is a double-edged sword in this industry, but I hope everyone is going to be a lot more mindful and respectful regarding celebrities were doing a job.
Gemma claims she’s worth 5million after being inundated with lucrative TV offers since catapulting to fame on The Only Way is Essex in 2011.
It birthed her alter ego The GC and led to her appearances on more reality shows like Celebrity Big Brother and I’m A Celebrity.
She also launched her own show Gemma Collins: Diva Forever as well as starting up a new podcast with BBC Sounds that went straight to number one.
Gemma, 39, has also lost three stone after becoming the face of Skinny Jabs as she vowed to have a healthier lifestyle.
She’s still in an on/off relationship James ‘Arg’ Argent who has faced his own personal demons lately.
The 32-year-old has been in rehab after two drug “overdoses”.
An ambulance was called to the former Towie stars 1.3 million home in December after worried pals raised the alarm as he went missing for 48 hours.
Caroline was found dead at her flat on February 15 just weeks before she was due back in court accused of assault.
