Love Island star Jacques O'Neill has returned to his former rugby club to receive a warm welcome from teammates and fans. Jacques left Castleford Tigers in west Yorkshire to go on the ITV2 reality show in June and on Friday he was delighted to join them for their win over Catalans Dragons.
Jacques, who left the dating contest show early over his mental health after struggling to see newcomer Adam Collard flirting with his partner in the villa Paige Thorne, was beaming as he chatted with and hugged supporters after being introduced onto the pitch. "Can't beat the rugby fans especially the tigers' family," he wrote on his Instagram as he shared video clips from his day.
With another clip of himself joining in the dressing room celebrations with the players he said: "What a night @ctrlfc topped off with a win." Jacques also made an appeal as he shared a video of himself meeting one fan: "Being able to make someone smile like this genuinely makes me so happy, he said." "Honestly one of the best feelings ever yesterday. Can someone please help me get in contact with the lads' family?" he asked.
