Love Island Jacques' grovelling text apology to Paige in full – 'damage has been done'

Love Island Jacques O'Neill has still not fully been forgiven by Paige Thorne for his antics during the Casa Amor week.

During the recoupling episode, ex islander Cheyanne Kerr revealed she had a connection with Jacques in the villa, despite him deciding to stick with Paige.

During the last couple of episodes the ex semi pro rugby player has fought to win her back, with Paige continuing to reject Jacques.

After a lengthy and heated heart to heart, Jacques decided he would write her a lengthy message on his phone to win her back.

Discussing the message later in the episode, Jacques joked it was like "writing a novel", while telling his fellow islanders his plan to win her over.

He added: "So I've written a little message on my phone for Paige. It's a novel mate. I'm going to take her somewhere tonight. I think the small fire pit.

Andrew asked: "Is that where you had your first kiss," and Jacques replied saying: "Yes".

He continued: "I just wrote a little text. What I'm going to tell her, it's basically me opening up and telling her everything I want. It's you and that's it."

Viewers were given a quick flash of the message in last night's episode, but it was very hard to see what it said.

What did it say in Jacque's message to Paige

Luckily, TikTok's Sarel Madzebra, also known as @CocoSarel, has deciphered what it says in the love letter.

In a TikTok video, Sarel does a dramatic reading of the text message.

Here is the whole message in full: "The first day I walked in it's been me and you, from the first moment I seen you I thought you were beautiful to only find out you're as beautiful as you are on the outside as you are on the inside...

"We get on like I've never got on with anyone in my life before, I literally see you as my best friend already and it's only been four weeks.

"I've never been so excited to take a girl home to meet my mum (I know she's going to adore you).

"We were going from strength to strength before I f***ed things up. If I could change it I really would but the damage has been done I know and I am so sorry for hurting you I would never want to do that again trust me, I am prepared to wait as long as it takes for you to forgive me because I know I do not want anyone else but you.

"The way I have felt the last couple of....." This is where the text drops off.

Love Island fans will hopefully see Paige's reaction to the text in tonight's episode, where Season 4's Adam Collard makes a shocking return to the villa.

In tonight's episode, Jacques will tell Paige: "I’ve got something to say to you. I was in bed last night and I thought I wanna tell you, because sometimes I get flustered when we’re speaking so I just thought if I put it down for you, you might be able to listen to me."

Love Island continues tonight on ITV2 at 9pm.
