Love Island warning as Adam Collard’s family and friends hit back at trolls who slammed his return to villa

LOVE Island returnee Adam Collard's social media has been subject to huge trolling - and his loved ones aren't taking it lying down.

The gym director, 26, has returned to the Mallorca villa for the second time, in an attempt to find lasting love.

Almost straight away, Adam sparked war with Jacques in an angry spat which left the rugby ace spluttering with rage.

After Jacques' impromptu departure, the PT was last night seen taking Jacques' on-off partner Paige, who has remained in the villa, on a date.

His apparent meddling behaviour has raised some eyebrows, yet some keyboard bullies have taken things to the extreme and attempted to target Adam on his Instagram page.

As such, his family have issued a swift warning, which reads: "As part of Adam's team, we would like to make a quick statement that any negative comments will be deleted and blocked.

"This account is in SUPPORT of Adam so if you don't support him, then please stay off this page.

"We love all the support Adam has received so far, you are all incredible. It has been four years since Adam last appeared in the villa and he has grown a lot as a person which we can't wait for you to see throughout this journey.

"Keep watching for Adam 2.0 in his second time around."

Monday's episode saw the hugely unexpected return of Adam, and fellow contestants remarked on how happy Paige seemed while talking to him shortly after his entrance.

They told how Jacques was sure to be "so intimidated" by the new arrival.

Love Island announced Jacques departure on Tuesday, with a statement that read: "Jacques has made the decision to leave the Villa. He will explain his reasons to the Islanders during tonight's episode.

"We fully support his decision and look forward to seeing what's next for Jacques."

Back in 2018, Adam caused just as much of a stir.

He first set eyes on Kendall Rae-Knight before dumping her for Rosie Williams.

But his romance with Rosie was short-lived after Zara McDermott entered the villa and he made a beeline for her despite Rosie having just performed a sex act on him.

Rosie even made a stark warning to Zara about the cad, and after the couple broke up Rosie reiterated that Zara was better off without him.

After Zara was dumped from the villa, Adam soon cracked on with tattooed Darylle Sargeant, leaving Zara heartbroken.
