Love Island’s Jacques set to become a millionaire as he signs with ex-Islander after ‘courageous’ mental health battle

LOVE Island star Jacques O'Neill is on track to become a millionaire after signing a deal to be represented by ex-Islander Scott Thomas.

The rugby player, 23, is in demand after being praised for his "courageous" mental health battle.

Jacques, 23 admitted being close to a breakdown before walking out of the ITV show after bombshell Adam Collard arrived on a mission to steal Paige Thorne.

After receiving overwhelming support from fans on the outside, Jacques says he is "feeling mentally better" as he plots his future career.

Now The Sun can reveal he's signed with The Social PR, with managing director Scott set to mentor him outside of the villa.

Despite only being out for two weeks, Jacques is in talks about his next move after being bombarded with lucrative offers.

A source told The Sun: "Jacques is on track to make a fortune after being bombarded with offers since leaving the villa.

"He's been in talks with some big sports broadcasters to be involved in presenting work off the back of his rugby career. 

"He’s had a lot of interest from fashion brands and some potential TV opportunities presented to him too.

"All of this could add up to him becoming a millionaire in the near future, but Jacques is most passionate about becoming an ambassador of ADHD and Mental Health.

"It’s issues like these that are close to his heart and he wants to help youngsters dealing with the same struggles."

Scott Thomas starred in series two of Love Island and finished in third place with then-girlfriend Kady McDermott.

He hopes to give Jacques support by passing on his pearls of wisdom in the industry.

Scott told The Sun: “We’re really excited to be representing Jacques at The Social PR.
