Zara McDermott has hilarious reaction as ex Adam Collard returns to Love Island

Zara McDermott was left screaming at the realisation her ex Adam Collard will be re-entering the Love Island villa in a show first.

Zara, 25, and Adam, 26, first met after appearing in series four of the ITV2 dating show. The couple enjoyed a brief romance on the outside world but called it quits on their relationship eight months after leaving the villa.

They were one of the last surviving couples from their series and Zara was left "heartbroken" by their split.

Zara has since moved on with Made in Chelsea's Sam Thompson. And Love Island superfan Sam, 29, shared a video to Instagram after Sunday night's shocking episode, showing Zara's reaction to the bombshell news.

The video starts by focusing on Adam's entrance video, with Sam heard saying as the camera is zoomed in on Adam's abs: "Who's this guy? Who's this absolute animal?"

He then pans to Zara and screams: "It's your ex boyfriend, no way!," as Adam's face pops up on screen.

Zara then screams and laughs in shock before holding her head in her hands.

Sam can then be heard saying: "Oh my god, this is the best series ever!"

On top of the video, he wrote: "Don't think I've ever seen her face light up like that for me," with three laughing emojis.

He also captioned the post: "Can’t tell whether I’m excited or terrified."

One person said: "Ahahahahahahaha I was waiting for this storie. Brilliant," while another commented: "Think I’m more excited for your insta stories tomorrow then I am the show!"

Adam is ready to ruffle some feathers when he enters the Spanish villa very soon, something which has never happened on the show before.

He originally made a big impact in the fourth series in 2018 and is back to cause chaos, just as things erupted in the villa when Jay and Chyna and Dami and Summer were voted the least compatible couples and risk being dumped from the villa.

"I'm going to ruffle a few feathers when I go in," Adam promised as he opened about his bombshell return.

Fans are already discussing the bombshell's return and can't wait for the drama he will bring.

One fan wrote: "The way I screamed when I saw Adam collard is coming back , hope he makes the boys sweat."

Another said: "Adam is the OG Love Island f*** boy. Really hoping he goes for Paige!"
