Love Island star rushed to hospital for emergency surgery after horrific gym accident

LOVE Island's Jay Younger has undergone emergency surgery after being rushed to hospital.

The 29-year-old suffered a horrific accident in the gym after pushing his body too hard.

Fitness fanatic Jay told fans he had to have his "pec reattached".

It's after he tore it while doing a gruelling workout in the gym.

He'll now have to undergo rehab in the aftermath of his operation.

Jay wrote on Instagram: "My pec has been reattached after I tore it during a training sesh.

"Jeezy peeps man. I’ll be back at it after a bit of rehab".

Despite being in pain, Jay looked upbeat as he posted a snap from his hospital bed.

He also shared a screenshot of his referral form, revealing details of his injury.

It stated he had suffered a "right pectoralis major rupture".

Jay found fame on the eighth series of Love Island in the summer of 2022, entering as a bombshell on day nine.

He failed to find love in the villa, but had a brief romance with Ekin-Su.

She famously crawled on the floor to meet him on the balcony for a snog amid her on/off relationship with co-star Davide Sanclimenti.

He also coupled up with Paige Thorne, Danica Taylor and Chyna Mills.

Jay famously went back to his job as an investment analyst after leaving the Love Island villa.
