'BROKE ME'

I was desperate to leave Love Island & bosses convinced me to stay, says Jacques

He said: “I just literally just wanted to be by myself. 

“They went to bed and I stayed off watching TV and there was a fire stick there and I thought I’ll just search my name. 

“And I wish I didn’t because the way I felt googling my name and seeing everyone hating me I didn’t know what to do with myself.

“I didn’t sleep that night I just stayed awake, because I was so scared of going out that villa and going home and even facing people in the street.”

He added: “It rocked me. It was really scary. 

“I was up till six in the morning, but in the end I had to knock on one of the producers’ doors and just have a cuddle from them, because I just felt awful about myself, and I just wanted someone to tell me it was going to be OK. 

“I just felt like it was all negative and everyone hated me.
