Love Island has suffered another blow after Love Island star Zach Hartman quit ahead of his bombshell debut. The made model was reportedly due to fly out to the villa this week but has decided to turn the opportunity down.
It comes just days after Welsh contestant Liam Llewellyn quit the villa. The student, who hails from Newport, claimed he was not "giving 100 per cent" as he made his early departure. You can read more on this here.
Zach was due to enter the villa as a late arrival but has reportedly "decided against it" as he wants to focus on his career.

According to The Sun, new contestant Zach told friends: "I was meant to be going on Love Island this year and flying out this week.
"After long conversations with my family and thinking about what I wanted out of my career, I decided against it."
Zach reportedly added: "Would've been an easy year to win seeing as none of the guys have any game on there. But I've got to do what's best for me."
Love Island continues 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox. For more showbiz and television stories, get our newsletter here.
