Love Island Aftersun has been cancelled tonight as ITV bosses decided to pull it following Caroline Flack's untimely death.

The main show will be returning to screens tonight after a two-day break, but the Aftersun programme will not air as usual following Monday evening's episode.

"We apologise for this change but ask that you respect the show's decision during this difficult time."

The show didn't air over the weekend, with Saturday night's Unseen Bits and Sunday night's show cancelled out of respect for Caroline's friends and family.

The TV presenter's loved ones made a statement about her tragic death, saying: "We can confirm that our Caroline passed away today on the 15th February.

"We would ask that the press both respect the privacy of the family at this difficult time."

The body of the former Love Island host is believed to have been found at her London flat after a suspected suicide.

Caroline had been keeping a low profile in recent weeks after being arrested and charged with assault by beating following an altercation with her 27 year old boyfriend in December.

She is thought to have spent time in Los Angeles following her appearance in court, but returned to social media on Thursday.

Caroline had been due to stand trial on 4 March after pleading not guilty to the charge.

Speculation sparked on social media surrounding Caroline's death after a number of worried tweets from fans emerged on Twitter.

Despite the drama surrounding their relationship, Lewis has maintained he was still in a relationship with Caroline, and sent her a Valentine's Day message on Instagram.

He posted a gorgeous photo of him and his girlfriend on a date night.
