The pair are in for an awkward reunion in the South African villa as they’ve both appearing on the star-studded spin-off of the ITV dating show, which casts ex-Islanders and begins Monday (January 15). Jake has revealed the he hasn’t spoken to her since they ended things.

But Jake feels he hasn’t done anything wrong to her. He told Daily Star and other press: “There’s nothing for me to apologise for. I won’t say sorry, because I’ve done nothing wrong to her. Sorry will not come out my mouth.
However, it’s clear the furniture salesman wants the best for her. He added: “I just hope she’s done well and her family’s fine and her friends are all good, that’s it.”
All Star contestants aren’t supposed to know the line-up and they have been placed in quarantine. But Jake is convinced he knows Liberty will be in the villa.
“I know full-well she’s in there,” Jake added. “I’d put my house on it that she’s in there. I know she’s in there for a fact. I’ve not seen her, I’ve not spoke to her. I just know she’s done well and she’s fit and healthy. That’s it, really.”

Asked whether he would consider rekindling things with her, Jake said: “No, I don’t think so. I think I’ve matured, I’ve done things, I’ve looked back on relationships and you look at things differently. It’s not really something I’ve really thought about, but it would be 90% ‘no’.”
Fans previously accused Jake of “gaslighting” Liberty during his time on the show. But Liberty stood up for him, telling The Sun: “I do actually think his feelings were genuine.
“I think that the connection was genuine, but things went sour. But I do think he genuinely liked me. I just was questioning whether obviously he loved me the way I loved him.”
It’s said Liberty, who starred on Dancing on Ice back in 2023, will be “horrified” that Jake is in the villa. A source told The Sun: “Liberty and Jake haven’t spoken since the split and she’s avoided ever having to come face to face at celeb parties – so she’ll be horrified when she realises she has to live with him for the next few weeks.”
