Wrigley gum, General Motors and H&R Block are the latest advertisers to pull out of Skins, the highly controversial new MTV series, RadarOnline.com has learned.

They've joined Taco Bell who led the retreat.

"It was never our intent to endorse content that would offend consumers," the folks at Wrigley said in a statement released Saturday.  The company had advertised its Extra and Orbit chewing gums in the premiere episode.

As RadarOnline.com reported, that first episode last Monday drew 3.3 million viewers, a blockbuster number for a cable show.

But since then, groups like the Parents Television Council have been lambasting Skins for its sexy content in a show being "marketed directly to children."

MTV so far hasn't blinked. The net faced similar criticism during the early days of Jersey Shore, and while some advertisers also pulled out of that show, others got in line to get in on the game once the reality show proved to be a hit.

In a statement, MTV said it is in compliance with all "applicable legal requirements, but also with our responsibilities to our viewers."

And the image has been splashed across billboards in China with the slogan 'Feel The Romance of British Royalty' emblazoned down the side of the picture.

The company has produced a line of 'Diana' underwear, which they insist is meant to honor the Princesses taste in lingerie.

See it here.

But they have come under fire from fans who believe they are cashing in on her death.

"It does seem to be just blatant exploitation of a dead lady's name," said Alan Berry, co-founder of the Diana Appreciation Society.

And a British man, who saw the image when it was unveiled at Shenzhen airport in southern China, was outraged.

"I was just going to collect my baggage from the carousel when I saw it flash up on a rolling advertising screen and couldn't quite believe what I was seeing," Sam Chambers told the Daily Mail newspaper in the UK.

"I thought, surely not, because it was rolling quite quickly. So I waited to check when it came up again and, sure enough, there was an image of Diana.

"It's all the more striking because today is the anniversary of her death."

Representatives for Prince Charles have not commented on the advertisements.

Diana died on August 31st 1997 after a tragic car crash in a Paris tunnel.

With Tiger Woods many endorsement deals flying out the window since his much publicized cheating scandal erupted, you'd think Tiger would be pleased to once again be featured in a major ad campaign. But when it comes to the ad that RadarOnline.com has learned PETA is planning on running, we somehow doubt it!

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Tiger Woods In Rehab

PETA is famous for their attention-grabbing, controversial advertising campaigns and for their willingness to court celebrities and capitalize on controversy. Now, the animal activist group is combining both elements in a hilarious upcoming ad campaign featuring Tiger Woods.

EXCLUSIVE: Tiger Woods' Wife Refuses To Take Family Portrait

In the ad, which will run on billboards, PETA feature a picture of Woods and the message, "Too much sex can be a bad thing....for little tigers too. Help keep cats (and dogs) out of trouble: Always Spay and neuter."

PETA hopes to run the ads on various sites, including those near to Tiger's Windermere, FL, home!

Elin And Tiger Apologize For Paparazzi Presence

Not surprisingly PETA say that Woods has not endorsed the ads, going on to explain though that the image and idea were "too good to pass up."

PHOTOS: Tiger And Elin Fly Out Of Orlando Together

PETA’s Executive Vice President Daphna Nachminovitch says, “The millions of cats and dogs born each year in this country without good homes to go to don’t make tabloid headlines, but their suffering is 100 percent real.”

Maybe some good can finally come out of Tiger's cheating scandal - at least for our four legged friends!
