Jacques, 23, walked away from the Love Island villa earlier this week as he told his fellow contestants he was "struggling".
The reality TV star could be seen breaking down in tears as he battled with his mental health, after watching his partner Paige Thorne flirt with new bombshell boy Adam Collard.
Taking to Aftersun alongside his co-stars, fans couldn't help but notice there was something strange about where Jacques was sat.
They noted how the star had his own bar stool to perch on far away from the other former Islanders, "five feet away" in the studio.

"Why is Jacques sat so far away from everyone else?" one fan asked, as another chimed in: "No, Jacques sat by himself five feet away."
A third added: "Why is Jacques sat at the other end of the bar on Aftersun like a scorned child?"
While a fourth pointed out of the bizarre placement: "Not Jacques sat there on his own at a five-metre social distance."
It comes after Jacques revealed which of the former Islanders reached out to offer him support after leaving the show.

He heaped praise on last year's winner Liam Reardon, admitting he had been inundated with kind messages from past contestants.
He quit the villa last Sunday and has opened up to The Sun about the fallout, revealing he had tonnes of support.
"It started with Liam Reardon, Faye Winter, they messaged me first, they explained what it would be like on the outside," he said.
"I really appreciated that so much. After that I spoke to Kem Cetinay on the phone, after that I had Jake Cornish and Brad McClelland.
