LUCA Bish’s family have said they were reduced to tears and felt sick after the Love Island star was sent death threats following a row with Gemma Owen.
Sunday's episode saw him accuse the 19 year old of flirting with bombshell Billy Brown and telling her "I can't be with someone like that".
The fishmonger was accused of overreacting on Twitter, while his family revealed he had received a flood of vile abuse on Instagram as they begged Love Island fans to "please stop".
After Sunday’s episode aired on ITV, they wrote: “Please, please, please stop messaging abuse. Luca can’t even see it… the people that love him most can.
“I’ve just been sick from crying so much at the death threats (an hour on from that last story). How can people be so inhumane.’
Luca’s sister who is running his account whilst he is in the villa, added: “The hardest night of my entire life. This is happening every second.

After watching the clip of Billy flirting with Gemma during Casa Amor in last night's Movie Madness episode, Luca said: "I'm telling you now, I don't even want to speak to her.
"I'm f***ing fuming. I am not going f***ing near that bird mate. Bring me a f***ing bird in, watch me then flirt.
"Trust me when I say, if she wants to play it down to me I will f***ing explode. I can't be with someone like that, sorry."
Pointing to his snake tattoo, Luca added: "See this tattoo on my chest, that's what she is."
In the beach hut, Gemma defended her self and said: "I don't really know where he is coming from. I think everything that I did was fine, I stand by, I don't think it was that deep at all and everyone just needs to get on with it."
After sharing a frosty silence in the corridor after movie night, Luca later told Gemma "I'm not happy" and "you were entertaining it" which Gemma vehemently denied.
