Love Island's Dami Hope accuses Adam Collard of 'playing a game' amid split from Paige

Love Island alum Dami Hope has accused former co-star Adam Collard of "playing a whole game," with the remark coming following the latter's split from Paige Thorne.

Adam, 26, and Paige, 25, had been together after meeting on the ITV2 reality show over the summer - though she is now single following recent drama surrounding them.

Dami, 26 - who is dating Indiyah Polack, 23 - has since spoken about his former co-stars Adam and Paige, whilst attending the Daily Mirror's Pride of Britain Awards in London last night.

The former islander said he feels Adam has "disrespected" Paige, and accused him of having "played a whole game" whilst he was on the latest series of Love Island with them.

Speaking about Paige, Dami told the Daily Star : "Yeah she's good. It's better for her to be single than be with someone that obviously... [...] Stuff like that it's not a good look.

"I feel like for me with Adam, if he was going to come back to the villa, you should have just been the bad boy instead of playing a whole game. It just doesn't look good at the end of the day."

Asked if he's on good terms with Adam, he replied: "Yeah I'm not beefing anyone, like. I'll shake his hand [but] I feel like in a way you disrespected Paige and she's actually my girl so."

There had been speculation that Adam and Paige had split last month after footage emerged of him with his arm around another woman whilst on a night out with pals.

At the time, a rep for Adam said he had been approached by a group of women in a restaurant, who had wanted a photo with him. They said he obliged the request.

It was said that he left with his pals and "no one else". The woman he'd been seen hugging later told the Mirror they had an "innocent" chat and there was "nothing wrong".

There was subsequently speculation that him and Paige had ended their romance, with it having since been revealed that the Love Island alumni are no longer together.

Paige confirmed that she is now single whilst on the Saving Grave podcast recently. She said it's been a difficult time lately and suggested she wouldn't get back with him.

During the podcast, she also alleged that she has seen 'other videos' of "different people". Discussing the situation, Paige said that such videos "speak for themselves".

The Mirror approached Adam's rep for comment.
