Love Island's Jacques Opens Up On 'Darker Place' After Shock Love Island Exit

In the days that followed, the 24-year-old paramedic has moved on with Adam.

Since leaving the villa, Jacques has been inundated with positive messages from fans after his exit and he has now thanked viewers while also providing an update about his state of mind.

Sharing a picture of himself out and about, Jacques said: "I just want you all to know that I’m in such a better place mentally. A huge reason for that is because of all the love and support I have received! I’d be in a much darker place if it wasn’t for all of your kind words, so thank you again I appreciate it so much."

Love Island fans did not hesitate to congratulate Jacques on making his mental health a priority.

One supportive response said: “Head up son, you done everyone proud Jacques.”

While a second tweet said: “It’s so important to be kind, as you never know how someone is feeling, just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t there… keep your chin up and just remember who you are @jacques9oneill peace bro.”

One fan wrote: “You’ve got this sweetheart. Take each day at a time. Sending you lots of love.”

He reminded Laura that before he left the show, he told Paige to 'crack on' and he said that while he did believe the pair had a connection, he was happy to see her doing what she needed to do.

Love Island continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox.
