Love Island's Jacques O'Neill apologises and starts therapy after bullying claims

Love Island's Jacques O'Neill has publicly apologised for his behaviour towards some of the other islanders as he admitted he has started therapy.

Taking to Instagram, the rugby player shared a lengthy statement addressing recent bullying claims. The 23-year-old was accused of bullying by co-star Remi Lambert both during and since leaving their stint in the ITV2 villa.

Earlier this week the rapper took to his own social media account as he shared an example of Jacques and his friend Luca Bish making fun on him while on a live stream video. Remi said: "Everyone said I lied about the way I was treated in that villa, but this here is an example of what was going on whilst I was in there. Don’t know why they wasn’t kicked out for their behaviour to be honest. It’s not banter, it’s clear signs of bullying."
