Love Island's Jack Fincham hints ITV return following split from girlfriend as he's 'so single it hurts'

Jack Fincham, who rose to fame from his daytime job after winning Love Island, has revealed that he's now single again and hinted he could once again return to the villa for the ITV reality show to find love as he said: “I’m so single it hurts.”

The 32-year-old found love on the show back in 2018 with former ex-girlfriend Dani Dyer however their romance which captured fans hearts only lasted a few months behind closed doors as they called it quits nine months later in April 2019.

The former stationery sales manager had been dating Jodie Ella just a few months ago however their relationship has also come to an end. He also shares a kid with NHS worker Casey Ranger, following a "whirlwind" romance after his split with Dani.

But having now moved on, Jack spoke in a recent interview with The Sun on the prospect of returning to the show similar to previous contestants and pals Adam Collard and Kady McDermott, who is currently on this year's series.

“Oh yeah of course I’d go back on the show. I’d love to," Jack said, admitting he is ready to settle down after failing to find "the one."

“It’s like a perfect environment to meet someone. You haven’t got to worry about your phone or going to work or cooking! I’m not just trying to get out of work but yeah, I’d go back on the show in a heartbeat.”

Jack continued to admit he gets "a lot of attention" during nights out, adding: “It’s my own charm. It’s a curse.

“But actually I’m kind of ready to find someone and spend time with them.

“My little brother is 28 and he’s been with his girlfriend for nine years and I think wow I’d love that now. I’m ready to meet someone.”

The amateur boxer added that he often finds it hard to tell whether someone wants to be with him because of his celeb-status.

He added: “Does someone just want to be with me because I’ve been on telly and have a blue tick? It’s hard to know sometimes.

“That’s with everyone though – you come out of that show and everyone wants to be your mate and your phone doesn’t stop ringing and then sometimes you lose touch with a lot of the old mates you thought would always be there.

“You start to think, just because I’ve been on telly it doesn’t make me a different person.”

Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITVX each weeknight and Sundays at 9pm.
