JACK Fincham has pulled out of Love Island Games after being arrested for allegedly drug-driving and having false plates on his car.
The Sun told last night how the Love Island star, 32, was also held on suspicion of careless driving and driving without insurance.
Now we can reveal that Jack has decided against taking part in the spin-off show and instead will star in the upcoming series of Celebrity Ex on the Beach.
A TV insider said: "He decided Ex On The Beach was a better fit for him - he’d prefer to do that show so he flew out yesterday."
Jack was charged with drug-driving in 2021 but the case was dropped.
Last night a source close to him said he was using private plates rather than false ones and he denied taking drugs.

The star's solicitor Conor Johnstone, of M.A.J Law, said: “Mr Fincham has not been charged with drug driving and denies any drug consumption whatsoever."
Earlier this week we revealed that Jack - who won the 2018 series of Love Island with ex-girlfriend Dani Dyer - had signed up for the Games show.
We previously told how Megan Barton Hanson and Curtis Pritchard had also signed up for the show, taking place in Fiji.
Luca Bish has also strongly hinted he's part of the line-up which will consist of Islanders from all over the world.
