Love Island's Adam Collard signs up for another TV dating show after return to villa last year

Adam Collard is back on the search for romance but not on Love Island, with the villa lothario now ready to appear on another TV dating show.

Newcastle gym owner Adam first went into the Love Island villa in 2018, making a late arrival on day one and being told to 'steal' one of the girls who'd already coupled up. Adam then went onto be one of the most talked about contestants in the series, thanks to his womanizing ways and explosive rows with one time love interest Rosie Williams.

He eventually exited before the final, having failed to find the girl for him, but the made a shock comeback to Love Island last year, immediately making a play for Paige Thorne, with the pair then nearly making it right to the final, before being kicked out in fifth place. Adam and Paige tried to make a go of things back home, with him travelling down to her native Wales and Paige visiting Newcastle, before they split, after Adam was dogged by cheating rumours.

Adam is said to be in the cast for the next run of the hit E4 programme, alongside another ex Islander, Chloe Burrows, This Morning star Vanessa Feltz and Kate Moss' daughter and social media star Lottie.

Another famous face taking part in the new run of celebs Go Dating is Made in Chelsea favourite Mark Francis Vendelli, with the E4 show revealing the identities of its star daters on Instagram on Thursday.

While Adam won't be on Love Island this year, series two contestant Kady McDermott is being tipped to go back into the villa, seen years on from her first appearance, as a bombshell.
