Love Island star who quit villa drops HUGE hint he’s entering All Stars telling fans he’s ‘on the way to South Africa’
A CONTROVERSIAL Love Island alumni has dropped a huge hint he's headed to the All Stars villa - admitting he's "on the way to South Africa."
The singleton, 24, pulled out of the ITV2 matchmaking series back in July 2022.
At the time, rugby player Jacques O'Neill revealed the real reason for his Love Island exit, admitting he struggled to "be myself" while struggling with his mental health and ADHD.
Now the sports hunk has dropped the biggest clue yet he's joining the Love Island All Stars cast.
Jacques got his Snapchat fans talking as he uploaded a selfie showing him snuggled up in a blanket wearing a baseball cap.
He flashed a huge smile and a peace sign to the camera.

Yet it was his caption which sparked huge excitement, with the star writing: "On the flight to" followed by a South Africa flag.
Earlier this month, fans were convinced Jacques was on his way to the sun-soaked compound.
The jet-setter posted another snap showing him at the airport gate leaving fans to quiz and captioned it with the eyes emoji.
This lead fans to believe that she star is making an epic Love Island comeback.
One wrote: "I feel like there's a chance he's been told to post that to cause speculation but I could be wrong and he could actually be on it."
A second shared: "I’m honestly so confused, I thought the show wasn’t good for his mental health but he’s going back??"
Two years ago, Jacques announced his departure to his co-stars around the fire pit.
The sobbing lad told them: "Lately, I just can't be myself. I'm trying my best - but I'm not a fake person.
"I'm not going to start faking things and act like I'm OK when things inside aren't actually OK.
"So I'm going to be leaving today."
Addressing his then-show partner Paige Thorne, he added: "I just can't stick around and not be myself. It's not fair to me and it's definitely not fair to Paige.
"For me and Paige to work I need to be at my best and if that means removing myself from the situation and waiting for Paige when she gets out, that's what I'm going to do."
His emotions came to a head after villa veteran Adam Collard, 28, cracked on with the pretty paramedic.
Yet Jacques' relationship with Paige turned sour when she found out Jacques kissed Cheyanne Kerr in Casa Amor.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun following his shock villa exit two years ago, he revealed exactly what happened after he made the decision to leave - including being denied his phone and kept in a separate apartment with security guards.

After walking out of the villa - and declining producers’ attempts at getting him to return once more, Jacques was whisked away to a separate apartment.
There he stayed for two days without contact with the outside world before jetting home.
