LOVE Island's Jacques O'Neill raised the prospect that he will WALK after an almighty row with Paige Thorne.

The rugby player was challenged when he came through Casa Amor single - after kissing new girl Cheyanne Kerr.

While Paige was originally pleased to see him single, she was less impressed when Cheyanne revealed they'd kissed and shared a bed.

She said later: "I mentioned to Paige afterwards it wasn’t personal, I just wanted her to know what he’s like."

Then, in a preview for tomorrow night's Love Island Jacques was heard discussing the possibility of quitting.

He was shown telling Luca Bish: "No point me being here."

The fishmonger replied: "Mate, she's going to forgive you." He replied tearfully: "I won't let her forgive me."

If Jacques did decide there was no point in continuing, it would be a similar move to one that took place last year.

Liberty Poole and Jake Cornish resolved to leave the show after opting not to contest the final while their relationship was on the rocks.

Many fans were unimpressed by Jacques' remarks, which came at the end of Thursday night's show.

One wrote: "Jacques is ‘dealing with the consequences’ by throwing it back in Paige’s face and threatening to leave if she doesn’t forgive him."

Another said: "I hope both Jacques and Paige quit tomorrow."

A third said: "'No point in me being here' that’s so true jacques i will book your ticket to heathrow rn xx."

Paige was seen asking Jacques in a preview: "What the f*** were you doing?" before breaking down in tears to Dami Hope.

However, many pointed out he was perhaps not the best person to console her - being the one who urged the boys to follow his lead in hooking up with new girls while they were away in Casa Amor.
