"Love Island"

Read the following case about the popular TV show, "Love Island". Love Island is a reality television show in which contestants compete for a cash prize. In the 2016 season of the show, (then) Miss Great Britain, Zara Holland appeared. Holland, during the show, engaged in sexual activity with another islander in the Hideaway Bedroom, which was caught on camera, after which she was stripped of her crown. Some think that this decision was rooted in sexism. Do public figures, such as beauty pageant winners, have a moral responsibility to maintain a certain image, in virtue of being role models? If so, what sort of image are they responsible for maintaining?
