Love Island’s Adam Collard returns to day job after failing to reach final again

Love Island’s Adam Collard has returned to his day job after failing to reach the final of the ITV2 dating show a second time.

Adam first entered the villa in season four, back in 2018, before returning for series eight in 2022 and coupling up with Paige Thorne.

They were dumped in week eight after receiving the fewest public votes of support, while Adam had originally entered in week six as a bombshell.

And now he has retreated away from fame once more and swapped villa life for personal training.

The North East based hunk has updated his social media when he visited partner Paige in Swansea, writing on Instagram: “Riding that wave but the mission remains the same… I love this game for the physical, the mental and helping so many people along the way.”

He added: “Let’s get better together.”

Adam works for Sculpt Fitness, a gym based in Newcastle which also offers online coaching, and recently shared a snap of the staff posing outside the fitness HQ.

It comes after Adam and Paige were forced to hit back at rumours they’d already gone their separate ways after leaving the villa, insisting they’re still together.

With one user asking Adam: “Are you and Paige still together?”, Adam insisted: “I bloody hope so since I’m seeing her tomorrow.

“Course we are, I can’t wait just family comes first x.”

The pair later cosied up for an Instagram video which saw Adam copying her signature head wobble as Paige called him “hunnybun”.

Before coupling up with Paige, Adam had been paired with fellow Islander Zara McDermott outside of the villa, lasting eight months.

Adam even got a tattoo of Zara’s initial before the pair sadly split, with Zara initially explaining about their relationship: “There are peaks and troughs in every relationship and we wanted people to understand our relationship is not plain sailing.

“It might look like it is on Instagram, but it’s like any normal relationship.”

Announcing their split, a source told The Sun: “They did their best to work through their issues but at this stage there’s no going back. They have since unfollowed each other on Instagram.”
