LOVE Island fans were surprised by Adam Collard’s age as it was revealed he is returning to the show.
The Newcastle personal trainer appeared on the 2018 series – but many were shocked that he’s still relatively young.

Many reckoned he should now be in his 40s given how long has passed since he was last on the show.
However, he is in fact not even the oldest person in the Love Island villa this year at just 26.
Andrew Le Page, Coco Lodge, Davide Sanclimenti and Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu are all 27 while Jay Younger is 28.
One fan boggled: “How the F*** is Adam Collard 26??? He’s younger than me, wth.”
Another tweeted: “How in the HELL is that Adam Collard only 26?! He’s 36 stop lying.”
A third insisted: “No I’m sorry I’m actually shocked finding out Adam collard is only 26!?! Younger than me??? Wtf.”
One other said: “Adam Collard is 26 years old guys literally younger than David and Ekin-Su so stop calling him old.”
It was revealed last night that former Love Island star Adam was rejoining the show.
A brief clip showed his torso before the man turned to reveal his face. He tweeted: “It is what it is, until it isn’t.”
Adam shot to fame in series four and earned a reputation as a heartbreaker and even villain after dumping two girls in quick succession before coupling up with Zara McDermott.
Today The Sun revealed his shock revival – a first for Love Island – has sparked loads of ex Islanders hoping for a similar second spin on the ITV2 show.
A source said: “So many of the former cast members have got in touch with ITV begging to come back to the show.
“Some are people who were in Casa Amor in previous years, and there are some show legends who are single.”
