The following day, fans made 154 objections to the show after Alima was dumped from the villa.
July 3's episode also brought a wave of complaints from fans.
This time 130 viewers contacted Ofcom over alleged bullying by Meg and Dejon.
This came after the couple vented at Billykiss over a comment she made in the Superman Look Up challenge.
Then on July 4, Ofcom said they received 57 complaints relating to alleged bullying by Dejon and Harry.
