Many Love Island fans were unhappy about Adam Collard's decision to pair up with Paige in tonight's tense recoupling. Fans rushed to Twitter to share their views after his decision to couple up with the paramedic was aired on Thursday evening (July 14).
Adam, who was previously on the hit reality show in series four back in 2018, chose to pair up with Paige Thorne after her partner Jacques dramatically quit the show. The ceremony gave the islanders their first opportunity to choose a new partner since the dramatic post-Casa Amor recoupling last week.
This time the boys made the decisions with Adam given first pick as he was the newest islander in the villa. Former personal trainer Adam, who previously appeared on the 2018 series, delivered a speech about Paige, describing her as “beautiful and funny”.

Many unhappy viewers were quick to comment about the decision, coming just days after Jacques walked out of the villa. @queenbletti said: "Paige is caught in Adam's web already, car crash waiting to happen."
@xshayeamber_ said "Nah I’m actually fuming Adam is coupled up with Paige, it don’t look right.. I miss Jacques" and @CallanRundle10 said: "Can we please please please vote Adam and Paige out! Gone off her so much, jacs deserve better!

However some fans were happy about the decision, as @__shannon__c tweeted: "Adam & Paige look so cute together" and @YaaBoahema wrote: "I feel like Adam & Paige will win this season now."
@katalyssstweets said: "I think Adam & Paige speak the same love language" and @KittyBisou penned: "I actually really like Paige and Adam."
It comes after Paige’s previous partner Jacques O’Neill left the Love Island villa to focus on his mental wellbeing. After the other islanders had chosen, Deji Adeniyi was forced to couple up with Coco Lodge as they were the only two contestants left.
Luca Bish and Gemma Owen as well as Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Culculoglu were among the couples to reaffirm their relationships. Later, Luca and Gemma found a quiet spot in the villa to say they loved each other.
The episode also saw Tasha Ghouri surprise her partner Andrew Le Page by asking him to be her boyfriend. The dancer and model left notes around the villa in special places for Andrew to find and then waited for the other islanders to kick the plan into action.
