Shock Message That 'Proves' Adam Is Using Paige To Get To The Love Island Final

Love Island fans suspect that Adam Collard might be using Paige Thorne to get to the final after catching a suspicious message on his social media.

The season four star had his eyes on Paige from the first day he walked into the villa, and wasted no time in getting his graft on.

When Paige's partner Jacques O'Neill decided to quit the show and leave the villa just 24 hours later, Adam had nothing stopping him and put all his energy into turning Paige's head.

After falling for the Geordie lad, Paige feared the worst when two new bombshells Nathalia and Lacey strutted into the villa this week.

The Swansea paramedic even shed a few tears in front of Gemma Owen when Adam was invited on a date with Nathalia.

But despite Nathalia's best efforts to steal Adam, he quickly made it clear that he was more interested in Paige.

On Thursday night (21 July), viewers' hearts were warmed when Adam assured Paige that he was only interested in her, and would be interested in being exclusive.

"I hate the word exclusive, but like I want to use it as well, ‘cause that’s the way I feel right now", he told her.

Unsure at first, Paige asked him: "Really?! Like serious now?"

But Adam assured her, saying: "I’m being deadly serious."

After the episode aired, Adam's social media handlers back at home shared a post to his Instagram to celebrate, writing: "That’s it he’s off the shelf, he’s taken! I hope @paigethornex likes bulldogs and burpees as this is going to get," along with two fire emojis.

One cynical Love Island viewer took to the comments section soon after, suggesting that Adam was using Paige to get ahead on the series. They wrote: "What a player, ticket to the final secured."

And Adam's social handler all but confirmed her suspicions when he replied: "You've got to be in it to win it."

Shocked by the exchange, one fan shared a screenshot to Twitter to share her dismay.

"Adam’s Insta handler not even denying he’s using Paige to get to the final" they tweeted.

"WOW! How can anyone support him?"

"This tells me everything I need to know.." replied one disappointed Twitter user.

"Poor Paige" tweeted another.

Could Adam really be taking advantage of Paige to finally snag a chance at the £50,000, or are his feelings for her sincere?

Love Island continues at tonight 9pm on ITV2 and ITVHub.
