Love Island producers are in discussions with Women's Aid over the behaviour of its contestants amid concerns over some of the boys' conduct.
Things have become tense at times on the ITV show in recent days, with social media users outraged with the reaction of the group on the infamous 'movie night' episode.
During the episode, the couples saw clips of each other getting intimate with other Islanders while they were split up during Casa Amor - a period when contestants are introduced to new bombshells at another villa.

On Monday evening, Women’s Aid posted on social media that it is working with ITV to understand its relationship guidelines for the show.
The anti-domestic abuse charity said on Twitter : "Everyone has a role to play in ending domestic abuse, including Love Island.
"A programme based around the formation of romantic relationships must have guidelines on what behaviour is acceptable and unacceptable in those relationships.
"It's a really positive move for us to be in discussion with the team at Love Island about how we can work together moving forward, to address the issues and concerns raised."
Teresa Parker, head of communications and media relations at Women’s Aid, told the Metro that her organisation was being "tagged into a stream of Twitter posts".
She said viewers of the reality show were "highlighting the misogyny and controlling behaviour being shown on screen."
Ms Parker added: "We are talking to ITV, and they have shared with us information on their inclusion training, but what appears to be missing is specific information on abusive relationships and an understanding of controlling behaviour in relationships."
It is not the first time Women’s Aid has spoken out during a series of the hit programme.
In 2018, it said there were “clear warning signs” in the behaviour of contestant Adam Collard towards Rosie Williams that could turn into “gaslighting”, a form of emotional abuse.
The modern term is defined as making someone question their own reality through misleading behaviour.
What has happened so far in Love Island?
Italian Davide Sanclimenti - who kissed two girls during Casa Amor - has come under fire for "double standards" with partner Ekin-Su Culculoglu after branding her a “liar” during arguments.
Over the last few days, Luca Bish has accused his partner Gemma Owen of "flirting" with Casa boy Billy Brown.
She has insisted in recent episodes that she was not interested in Billy, denying she was "entertaining" his advances as furious Luca put it.
Meanwhile, Love Island fans have accused Luca and Dami Hope of bullying Tasha Ghouri, prompting Andrew Le Page to lose his rag with them in Monday evening's show.
