Caroline Flack was one of Britain’s most successful presenters – and also one of the most talked about – when she was arrested in December 2019 and charged with assaulting her partner, Lewis Burton. She lost her job as the host of Love Island – she stepped down in order to not detract attention from the show. She lost her home – it was so besieged by the press that she never went back there after her arrest. She felt she lost the public, too, especially with the drip-drip of damning (crucially, incorrect) detail in tabloids and across social media.
