Love Island fans believe Jacques O'Neill may have given up on his romance with Paige Thorne, despite their emotional farewell, after spotting a clue on his social media.
The 23-year-old rugby player dramatically quit the ITV2 dating show in a flood of tears after telling his fellow Islanders he didn’t feel like himself anymore.
During an emotional farewell, Jacques tearfully said to Paige that he would wait for her to leave the villa.
He said: “I want to be with you. I want you to be my girlfriend. It's fine, I want that, so I'm going to wait. I'm counting down the days until I get out. I don't want to tell you, but I do.”
Paige spoke in tears from the Beach Hut, saying: “I appreciate everything he's done. I support his decision 100%.
“Obviously it hurts me to see how unhappy he was and how he wasn't being himself. I just want the absolute best for him.”
However, it now seems Jacques could have changed his mind on waiting for Paige, after she has recoupled with Adam Collard and gushed about her new romance with the Newcastle personal trainer on the show.
Love Island fans have noticed that the rugby player has deleted all trace of his Love Island romance from his Instagram account.
One pointed out on Twitter : “Anyone else noticed Jacques deleted all of his insta posts with Paige.”
A second said: “Oh s*** Jacques really just deleted all the pics he had with Paige. guess he ain’t picking her up.”
“Jacques has deleted all of Paige’s photos off insta. He’s done with her,” a third added.
A fourth chimed in: “I do think Jacques deleting all the pictures of him and Paige off his Instagram is because he needs to do what is best for him, but I do believe that he has not completely deleted the pictures he has probably just archived all of the pictures.”
This comes after the 23-year old, who quit playing for Rugby League side Castleford Tigers in order to appear on the show, took to Twitter telling fans he'd be 'in a darker place' without them.
Jacques shared a snap on Instagram of himself looking much more relaxed on Saturday night.
Captioning the image, he wrote: "I just want you all to know that I'm in such a better place mentally.
"A huge reason for that is because of all the love and support I have received! I'd be in a much darker place if it wasn’t for all of your kind words, so thank you again I appreciate it so much."
