Love Island star Jacques O'Neill has returned to the UK in photos where he's been spotted for the first time since quitting the ITV2 show.
Rugby lad Jacques, 23, decided to leave the Majorcan villa in emotional scenes which aired on Tuesday's show.
After getting angry over claims bombshell Adam Collard had been "s***ging him off", he took Paige Thorne up to the terrace and shared his decision to leave – although some fans suspect he was asked to leave the show.
Sharing his decision with 24-year-old Paige, Jacques became overwhelmed with emotion as he tearfully explained: "I just wish I could finish my journey off with you her but I'm going to go home today."
Jacques then said his goodbyes to his fellow Islanders, including close pal Luca Bish, and left suitcase in hand.
Since his dramatic exit, Jacques has remained silent on social media but has since been spotted back in the UK.
Jacques was seen wearing a white T-shirt and grey cargo-style jogging bottoms along with a black pair of trainers as he was spotted at a Yorkshire shopping centre.
He was accompanied by his fellow rugby player pal Ellis Longstaff just hours after his emotional villa exit was aired on ITV2.
The rugby lad made his was through the shopping centre with his pal as he held his phone in his hand.
Jacques was seen putting on a pair of glasses with see-through lenses and frames to read something on his mobile.
And Jacques' pal Ellis put a supportive arm around the reality star as they looked at the phone together.
Ellis was dressed casually for the meet up with his Love Island mate as he wore a light blue sports top, black shorts and black sliders.
It comes after some Love Island fans bumped into Jacques on his flight home from Majorca.
The fan was queueing for his flight from Plama to Leeds-Bradford airport when he spotted Jacques and praised him for stopping to take selfies with other viewers of the show.
The fan said: "I was shocked seeing him as I didn’t catch up on the episodes due to been on holiday but then I saw him at the airport in Palma Nova.
"It was a complete shock to everyone there, the whole airport couldn’t believe it."
He added to Hull Live: "What I thought was most touching is that he took time to get pictures with people after what he explained to the viewers on Tuesday night. This completely changed the view of what others thought of Jacques."
Jacques vowed to wait for Paige as he left the show, and said he would pick her up from the airport. But, it appears Paige is already moving on from her romance with Jaques.
In the show's first look trailer ahead of Thursday night's episode Paige is heard admitting: "I do really quite fancy Adam.
"I don't wanna say the word fanny flutters but..."
