A FORMER Love Island bombshell has returned to the villa four years on - in a show first.

Geordie hunk Adam Collard, 26, caused chaos in Love Island's 2018 series before leaving with stunning Zara McDermott.

The muscle-bound personal trainer has since made a mint selling fitness regimes.

But he’s now back in the villa - and says he’s once more looking for love.

Adam said: “I’m going to ruffle feathers when I go in.”

It’s the first time an Islander has ever returned to the main show as a contestant.

Zara is now in a serious relationship with Made in Chelsea’s Sam Thompson and presents documentaries for BBC Three.

A show source said: “Adam genuinely wants to see if he can find love.

“He and Zara dated for eight months after leaving the villa and while that didn’t work out, he trusts the process.

“For this year’s Islanders, the whole concept will be totally mindblowing - not only is Adam gorgeous but he knows how the show works - if any of the girls really are in there for money and fame not love, Adam will suss them out.

“This is going to cause fireworks.”

Adam’s arrival was teased at the end of tonight's show, where it was also revealed that Jay Younger, Chyna Mills, Dami Hope and Summer Botwe were all at risk of being dumped from the island after losing a public vote.
