Loaded in Paradise’s Jamie Benson has revealed that he and his pal Guy were almost thrown off the ITVX show not once, but twice.
Breaking protocol with his pal, Jamie and Guy went out for a knees up when the boys should have really been tucked up in bed.
Going for a “secret night out” in Ios, the boys had a “really fun night” where they met “a couple of Greek girls”.

Jamie exclusively told Daily Star that the lads were told that they were under ITV’s duty of care while on the show, with filming taking place from 10am until 7pm.
When filming stopped they were allowed to go to their hostels and out for food, but were told not to do “anything stupid”.
After getting caught with the Gold Card, Jamie explained how he and Guy had some money saved up, with the lads thinking: “Why don’t we just go on a little night out?”
He said that they thought: “If we don’t take our phones with us, they’re not going to check. No one’s gonna know. We’ll keep this quiet, be there, back home, no one will know a thing.”
Jamie then explained how they “had a really fun night” and “got pretty drunk”.
Chatting and dancing with girls the night before left them feeling “hungover” the following morning when they started filming at 9am.
“As soon as the cameras start rolling at 9am, Guy just starts talking about this secret night out we had, which we planned to not be known by anyone,” he went on.
His pal was asking him, in front of the cameras, if he was “going to start messaging the Greek girl he was dancing with last night”.
Jamie explained how the runner was jotting down everything they were saying, adding: “Obviously that got sent straight to the main producers who were not happy at all.
“They said this is our ‘first and final warning’ and if we do it again we’re off the show.”
But then the boys wanted to head out on a night out again, so did so with the remainder of the cast who were still in the competition bar Rianna and Paige.
The second night out saw Jamie, Guy, Millie, Kane and Ieuan all go out clubbing with most of them getting matching tattoos on their fingers – although Jamie didn’t join in on the ink fun.
“I was so scared me and Guy would get kicked off the show. I was fuming,” Jamie said.
“Thankfully we were so close near to the end of the show they couldn’t kick us off the show, as with only a few episodes left they wouldn’t be able to get a replacement couple in time. So thankfully we stayed.”
“We apologised to producers and guaranteed never again,” Jamie added.
Loaded in Paradise is available to stream now on ITVX.
