Adam Collard’s friends fear his ‘bad boy’ reputation threatens to ruin his relationship with Laura Woods
FRIENDS of 'bad boy' Adam Collard fear his reputation could land him in trouble as his romance with Laura Woods blossoms.
The Sun yesterday revealed that Love Island lothario Adam is "smitten" with the stunning sports presenter and "couldn't wait" to show her off.
After Adam shared a sweet snap of Laura on his Instagram, insiders say it's opened him up to public scrutiny because of his past.
The 27-year-old was accused of "cheating" on Love Island's Paige Thorne when he was filmed with his arms around another girl on a night out. He denied any wrongdoing.
Now pals say they're worried of the past repeating itself.
"Adam and Laura are both gorgeous, successful and have their own set of fans who are interested in everything about them," a source told The Sun.

Personal trainer Adam became the first person ever to return to the villa for a second series.
He caused fireworks after setting his sights on islander Paige Thorne - which led to the shock departure of her love interest Jacques O'Neill.
He had previously earned a ladies'man reputation when he was in the villa in 2018.
He worked his way through flings with Kendall Rae-Knight and Rosie Williams before going into an eight-month relationship with Zara Mcdermott from series four.
After leaving the latest series with Paige a day before the final, Adam soon made her his girlfriend officially - but sadly the relationship didn't last.
Adam told The Sun at the time: "If you'd asked me when I came off Love Island if I was ready to settle down with Paige, then I would have said yes, but I learnt we're just different people.
"Everything was positive when we came ou,t but we lived different lives and you don't really realise all of that in the villa."
