Love Island viewers think Jacques is “playing a game”.
The rugby player was coupled up with paramedic Paige until Jay stole her from him during Friday night’s recoupling.
On Sunday night, the 23-year-old pulled Paige for a chat in the middle of the night and admitted it was bothering him seeing her spend time with Jay.
Jacques told Paige: “I didn’t want to tell you that I cared… I never cared in my life.”
Paige assured him: “Honestly Jacques, you have nothing to worry about.”
Jacques replied: “I don’t doubt you for a second, I believe every word you tell me. I do genuinely believe every word you tell me. But I’ve just never felt like this in my life.”
“Like I can’t show emotion.”
Reacting to the emotional scene, one fan tweeted: “i am sobbing at the jacques telling paige he cares and paige reassuring him that it’s all gonna be fine,” while a second wrote: “I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE PAIGE & JACQUES ARE SO F**KING CUTE.”
However, not everyone thinks Jacques is being genuine, and many are worried his head will turn in Casa Amor.
One tweeted: “Jacques Is playing a viscous game and he’s winning”, and a second wrote: “Yall I think Jacques is faking it.”
A third penned: “Me reading everyone’s ‘Jacques and Paige are so cute’ tweets knowing that he’s going to f**k her over the minute Casa Amor happens.”
I 100% agree with Darren, Jacques is acting! He wants that money so bad! 🤑#LoveIsland

I want the best for Paige, but a lot of you can’t tell when people are faking , that’s why so many people have compared Jacques to Jake, it’s the same vibe #LoveIsland

Jacques is acting and he is a liar. Paige is just eating up all his lies. Weak.😭 She doesn't even stop to analyse and re-assess where he's coming from. "You have nothing to worry about"? This is how men break hearts. #LoveIsland
