FORMER Love Island contestant Biggs Chris has claimed that producers could have forced Jacques O'Neill out of the villa.
Jacques, who was paired up with Paige Thorne, made the surprising announcement to quit the villa after an eventful few days.
His exit from the villa was a shock to many after he had seemingly made up with Paige after their Casa Amor drama.
Following Jacques' departure, Biggs – who appeared on the sixth season of Love Island in 2020 – thinks he was pulled out to save his mental health.
"There's way more to Jacques leaving than was shown on the show," Biggs exclusively told The Sun.
Speculating, he then revealed: "I think he was advised to leave by producers.

"He either did something to Adam – possibly even physical – or maybe his family or management pulled him out before he did something crazy.
"I definitely think they forced him to leave and covered it up. It's Love Island, they have to protect their contestants."
Jacques spent the past few days attempting to win back the 23-year-old after it was revealed he kissed Cheyanne Kerr while she was away in Casa Amor.
Tuesday’s episode saw them continue to work through issues after the return of former contestant Adam Collard caused a stir between the pair.
Holding back tears, he said: “I just wish I could finish my journey off with you in here, but I’m going to go home today.”

Through tears, Paige replied: “I don’t want you to go, but also I want you to be happy and it hurts me seeing you in this way.”
Jacques concluded: “I just know for us to work I need us to get back to myself and the only way I’m going to get back to myself is going home.”
