Love Island Jacques O'Neill issues statement as he 'takes responsibility' for actions

Jacques O'Neill left the Love Island villa earlier this week in emotional scenes on the ITV2 dating show.

The rugby player had been in a couple with paramedic Paige Thorne but they were finding it hard to get past the antics of Casa Amor. During the time of the twist Jacques showed interest in another girl, who outed Jacques as he reunited with Paige around the fire pit.

After spending several nights in the doghouse, Jacques made the decision to leave the villa. At the time, a Love Island spokesperson said: "Jacques has made the decision to leave the Villa. He will explain his reasons to the Islanders during tonight’s episode. We fully support his decision and look forward to seeing what’s next for Jacques."
