Love Island UK viewers slam Luca Bish and Dami Hope for their 'bullying' behaviour towards Tasha Ghouri
In the latest episode of Love Island UK, the game of 'Snog Marry Pie' continued.
This time the power switched to the boys, who had to choose one girl to kiss, one to marry, and one to literally throw a pie right into their face.
But what started as playful fun with Billy Brown throwing a pie in Tasha Ghouri's face, soon became difficult to watch for many viewers.

While Andrew Le Page – who is Tasha's boyfriend – decided to marry Tasha, Davide Sanclimenti, Dami Hope and Luca Bish all threw their pies into Tasha's face too.

"The reason why I decided to pie you. I feel like you usually get away with a lot of stuff, but this pie you weren't going to get away with," Dami said.
"I could give you a list as long as Adam (a very tall Islander) but we'll let it go for today," Luca said.

It was followed by laughs, with Andrew looking visibly upset with how the boys had acted.
The boys, in particular Dami and Luca, laughed when Tasha was pied. 9Now
Tasha held herself well in the moment, standing strong. But when talking to her boyfriend and fellow Islander Paige Thorne after the game, she was noticeably shaken up.
"There's banter, and then there's that. That was not banter," Andrew said.

"And it wasn't just a game. That did become very personal," Paige added.
"I'm not worried about the pies, I expected it. It's the reasons after they gave. That was nasty," Tasha said. "It's the fact that they were laughing afterwards."
Following the game Tasha was emotional. 9Now
Viewers were furious, with many taking to Twitter to vent their frustrations about how Tasha was treated.
"Why is everyone attacking Tasha? This is borderline bullying," one wrote, with another going further to say their acts were "literally bullying".
"It's staggering that this season has descended into two lads actively bullying and harassing a deaf contestant and there have been... zero repercussions?" another Tweet read.
But there very well could be repercussions. Luca is Coupled Up with Gemma Owen, and the pair have been very close on the show.
But Gemma has made it clear that she will not make her relationship with Luca official until he has met her family – which includes famous former footballer Michael Owen – and they approve of him, due to her being very close to her family.
After the incident Gemma's mother Louise Owen commented on one of Tasha's Instagram photos.
"I hope Tasha is ok. I feel it's close to bullying now which is so sad to see," she wrote.
It could spell the end for any chance Luca has in making his relationship with Gemma official.
Even a former Islander, Amber Davies had her say over the incident.
"Gosh I hope Tasha is ok. These boys are basically bullying her at this point," she wrote.
Dami and Luca eventually came around and apologised to Tasha for their actions, however we're not sure if that will be enough to soothe things over.
