Love Island star Jake Cornish ditches villain image for clean cut look in dapper suit

Jake Cornish has ditched his villain look and went all clean cut as he picked out a dapper new suit.

The Love Island star wore the trendy three-piece over the weekend - and fans were quick to tell him how sophisticated he now was.

Weeks after he revealed he and ex Liberty Poole gave things another go following their split, he seems to be smartening up his act.

Jake struck a pose on Instagram and the snap can't have failed to catch his former girlfriend's eye.

"Any excuse to wear a suit," he captioned the photo as he looks top top in the well fitting grey number.

His followers clearly think his new look is a winner.

One told him: "Definitely suits you!"

While another smitten fan said: "Absolutely gorgeous" with plenty of heart eye-popping emojis.

Jake last year accused Love Island bosses of portraying him as a villain and manipulating scenes to wreck his romance with Liberty.

Jake and Dancing On Ice star Liberty, 22, paired up together on the very first day in the villa.

Liberty has since been linked to huge stars including Joey Essex and Jack Grealish (ITV2)

During the final week of the ITV2 dating show, the pair decided to break-up ahead of the grande finale where lovebirds Millie Court and Liam Reardon scooped the winners titles.

The former water engineer, 24, felt as though their time wasn't completely done after they decided to go their separate ways in the famous villa.

He got in touch when they left and found themselves back in the real world- and it seems like they tried again.

Jake told The Sun: “I only had one girlfriend before her, my childhood sweetheart. I’d never been dumped and it hurt. One minute we were planning a holiday together and arranging to meet each other’s families, the next it was over.

“I was devastated, I couldn’t think straight. My family was asking how my mental health was. Something made her decide that we weren’t right for each other and I had to take it on the chin.”

Jake went on: "We decided we would give it a try. We were talking, but we had to agree that we were not right for each other.

“When it was announced she was on Dancing On Ice I sent her a message saying, ‘Well done Lib’. She replied, ‘Thank you’ and that is the last time I spoke to her.”

Despite appearances, Jake insisted that he entered Love Island in a genuine bid to find love after having his heart broken following the break-down of his previous seven-year relationship.

“I had been in a long-term relationship for seven years before I went on Love Island. I wanted to find love again. I thought I had that with Lib — I was in love," he gushed.

Jake told told MailOnline in September: "There’s stuff I have spoken to Lib about on camera that hasn’t aired about how I was feeling. It isn’t nice I’ve been painted this way as a pantomime villain. It isn’t the nicest to come across as someone I’m not."
