Love Island's Paige Thorne says she 'can't wait' to leave Swansea as she gives health update amid Jacques rumours

Love Island's Paige Thorne has revealed she "can't wait" to leave Swansea as she hosted a Q&A session on her Instagram stories. The Welsh reality star also touched on her journey with sobriety, her mental health and relationship with former flame Jacques O'Neill.

The paramedic hosted the session on Monday evening - as the latest series of Love Island aired - and kicked off the questions by suggesting her and her fans 'catch up x'. She was soon flooded with questions, the first of which asked about her sobriety and how she stays committed to it.

Answering candidly, the Swansea-based influencer, who gave up alcohol late last year "because I don't like the person I become when I drink" said: "Substitute with tasty mocktails and non-alcoholic beers 100%. Listen to podcasts around effects of alcohol beforehand. Surround yourself with supportive friends too."
