The former Islander said he could not cope with what was happening.

“couldn’t cope” in the TV villa, adding: “Doing Love Island was the worst decision  of my life.”

One could say Jacque needs anger management as this reality show is a game of mind play rather than physical.

Jacque,28, who had to walk out of the famed ITV show said “I was ready to break down.

“I was feeling so mentally drained, I just wanted to go home and get myself right.

“It broke me and I was already broken. I was crying my eyes out. I couldn’t cope.

“I was literally feeling awful. It was the worst I’d ever felt in my life.”

Jacque who granted his first ever interview after leaving the villa  spoke about his struggle with mental health which is linked to ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).

He added that he had told managers of the show of his condition even before the show began and indicated that

“At home you can remove yourself from situations, but in there you had to deal with every situation, and in that moment I took my microphone off, and walked straight through the front doors because I just wanted to get out of that place.

Love IsLand Producers wanted to still keep Jacques

“Producers tried coming to me, they were like, ‘Jacques, are you OK? I was saying, ‘I don’t want to speak to you or anyone. I want to be left to myself.’ It was too much.

“I was saying to them, ‘This is more than a TV show to me’, it was genuine feelings involved and my headspace wasn’t right to be in a TV show.

“I dealt with stuff in there that I’ve never dealt with in my life.”
