Love Island's Jacques 'dating Scandinavian influencer' as ex Paige 'splits from Adam'

Love Island alum Jacques O'Neill is reportedly dating social media influencer Isabel Raad, with him said to be hosting her whilst she is over in the UK from Norway.

The rugby player, 23, appeared on the latest series of the ITV2 dating show, though he didn't end up leaving with a significant other following his experience in the villa.

He, however, is said to now be dating influencer Isabel, who is reportedly staying with Jacques in Manchester at the moment whilst she is over from her native Norway.

It's been claimed that they were spotted looking cosy at an event just yesterday, with sources having said recently that Jacques and Isabel "have real potential" together.

The source further told the Sun : "Isabel is really famous in Norway and has a huge following. She's really hit it off with Jacques and is enjoying spending time with him in the UK."

They added that friends suspect that "things could be serious" between Jacques and Isabel – who is said to have appeared on reality TV show Paradise Hotel in 2015.

The influencer boasts 384,000 followers on her verified Instagram account. Her profile states that she's also a business founder and has her own self-titled TV show.
