Since Mike's death, Love Island bosses have now confirmed that they have been working on overhauling their reality show aftercare policy after former star Sophie Gradon was also found dead, aged 32, in June last year.

In a lengthy statement released just days after Mike's death, producers confirmed they would change policies to ensure that all Islanders are offered support before, during and after their time on the show, as well as social media and finance management training.

In the message it also revealed that they would be changing the outlying policy towards mental care of all contestants, after many former stars hit out at producers for the lack of aftercare.
