A Love Island spokesperson told MailOnline: ‘Zac 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 Zach.”
All over: Love Island’s Jacques O’Neill has quit the show and will explain his reasons for leaving the Islanders in scenes to be shown on Tuesday night’s episode
Bombshell: Zach is left outraged by the new bombshell, Adam Collard’s attempts to get back at Paige Thorne, who he was trying to win back after kissing Cheyenne Kerr
Zach struggled to win back Paige’s heart after kissing Cheyenne Kerr at Casa Amor before deciding to stay with his original partner.
He had said he would leave the show if she didn’t forgive him, hinting that his efforts to win her back didn’t go as planned.
His family recently defended the backlash against him by saying he has ADHD which means he struggles to control his emotions.
Zach had asked Paige: “Was Adam taking me out? Who the f*** is this? Some geezer who is already on the show. It’s nothing, man
Making the announcement on his social media, his family wrote in the caption: “Zac was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 9 years old.
“By no means is this a get-out clause for his actions, but it’s to show that he can actually struggle with his emotions at times.
“He is an amazing man that I am proud to call my friend/little brother.
“All the hate being spewed at Zac is not directed at him….It’s about his loved ones who have always supported him and not just when he’s on Love Island.
Oh no! Jacques kissed Cheyenne at Casa Amor in an attempt to test his feelings, but she told Paige in a parting shot after he was kicked out of the villa.
“The island of love, although real. It’s still a show where the producers are in control and we see 45 minutes from 1440 in 24 hours. Please be kind ♥️ .’
Zach was left fuming on Monday’s episode after learning that new bombshell Adam Kolar was ‘smashing’ him behind his back.
In a dramatic episode, Jay Younger and Chyna Mills were kicked out of the villa by their fellow islanders before Adam returned to Love Island, having previously ruffled feathers during his time on the show in 2018.
Zac was seen going for a chat with Paige Thorne after Gemma Owen told him: ‘He [Adam] it has killed you right.
They have their say: While he maintained his Instagram account during his time in the villa, his family urged viewers to be ‘kind’ and stressed they were only seeing an edited version of events
Statement: Making the announcement on his social media, his family wrote in the caption: ‘Zac was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 9.’
Speaking to Paige in the garden, she said: ‘Has Adam screwed me over? Who the f*** is this? He’s just another jerk who’s already appeared on the show. He’s got nothing, man.”
During Monday’s episode, Adam entered the villa while the boys were away on a spa day and immediately made a beeline for Paige to find out how her relationship with Zach is currently.
Paige gushed over Adam’s physique, telling him he’s the tallest guy in the villa, before declaring at the Beach Hut: ‘He’s so fit. No I’m not going to lie, it’s very fit.’
At the pool, Adam told her she’s boy material, explaining: ‘When I’m with someone I’m 100% with them, I’ve never cheated on any ex-girlfriends or anything like that.
“On the back of this, everyone is going to get a lot of attention and I’ve been there and done that. I don’t need to get it out of my system like some people do. I feel like some of the guys in here are going to want that.
Paige replied: “100%. I’m not ready to train someone else to be a friend. Like you’re either friendly material or you’re not.’
Adam asked, “How do you think Zach will be with me and you talking?”
Paige: “I don’t think he’ll like it. I think he’ll be horrified.’
After her conversation with Adam, Paige went over to Gemma and Ekin-Sue Tsoultzuloglu to ask what they were thinking about meeting him.
Gemma, who dated Jacques before Love Island, encouraged her to meet Adam and not feel bad about it, given Jacques’ infidelities during Casa Amor.
Gemma said: “You need to get more into it. You would be beyond stupid [if you didn’t]. Please, please, don’t think about Zack, just think about yourself. He didn’t think of you in Kaza and I’m sorry, karma is f***ing.’
Meanwhile, Zach and Paige had shared their relief that the public voted to keep them safe, and he begins to open up to her.
Zach told Paige that he has something for her. He said, “I have something to tell you.
“I was in bed last night and I thought I want to tell you, because sometimes I get upset when we talk, so I thought if I put it down for you, you might be able to hear me.”
Zack then pulls out his phone and reads his heartfelt message to Paige, explaining how he really feels.
Not happy: Zach O’Neal left fuming on show after learning new bombshell Adam Kolar is ‘snogging’ him behind his back
In his letter, Jacques said: “From the first moment I saw you. I thought you were beautiful. I’ve never been so excited to take a girl home to meet my mom.
“We were going past our strength before I screwed things up. If I could change it, I really would. I’ve been struggling with this ever since and I don’t want to hurt you again…
“I honestly don’t want anyone but you and I’m ready to stay until you tell me otherwise. Without you, my time wouldn’t be the same… I just hope we’re on the same page.’
The letter seemed to have won Paige over as they shared a kiss and she invited him back to her bed, telling the girls that he’s “out of the dog house.”
