Maura trying to kiss Tommy

Love Island will not face investigation, after more than 700 people complained into Maura trying to kiss Tommy on the sofa.

Regulator Ofcom say the incident, which took place last month, needed to be "taken in context".

Boxer Tommy is now happily coupled-up with Molly-Mae.

An OFCOM spokesperson told the BBC  that it didn't breach TV's "generally accepted standards".

"While we recognise that many viewers disapproved of a contestant's behaviour in this episode, we took into account the context in which it occurred, including the nature of Maura and Tommy's relationship, before and after," a spokeswoman said.

However, Ofcom is still considering whether to investigate the show over other controversial moments. At least 300 people complained about the treatment of Lucie Donlan by some fellow contestants in June.
