Soon, the news spread like wildfire, and people were on his Instagram commenting on his posts for him to be canceled and calling him toxic.
Despite the rage from the public, Love Island did not kick Danny out of the show. Fans were shocked that the case of racism was not taken seriously by the show, and Bibby got to stay in the villa.
The model apologized to the public for his post and the use of his racial slurs, but the public was not buying it.
@LoveIsland Danny needs to be removed, he’s racist and I’m not interested in his apology or seeing him on the show. Having him in a house with black contestants who may be unaware of his history is irresponsible and triggering to watch. You need to fix this. #LoveIsland

It has been a year now since the racism scandal with the Love Island star, and the controversy seems to have died down, considering the model has around 114k followers on Instagram and not any mean comments calling him out.
