Welsh Love Island contestant Paige Thorne narrowly avoided being dumped from the Love Island villa as she is chosen by bombshell Jacques O'Neill. That meant that Afia Tonkmor was the first contestant to be dumped from the villa.
Due to Liam Llewellyn making a shock exit from the villa, through his own choice, this left more girls in the villa leaving Paige and Afia single when they were not picked in the re-coupling on Friday, June, 10. The girls were thrown a lifeline in the form of Jacques, who is the ex of fellow Islander Gemma Owen, daughter of famous ex-footballer Michael.
Soon, any budding relationships with Jacques were put to the test when he was asked to pick either Paige or Afia. The girl not chosen would be dumped from the villa and Jacques chose to save Paige.
