Love Island's Paige and Adam spark split rumours as fans worry they have drifted apart

Love Island's Adam Collard and Paige Thorne have sparked split rumours after posting some cryptic Instagram pics.

The couple, who came fifth on the show, have been sharing snaps without each other as they spend time apart.

Adam, 26, showed off his ripped body in a saucy shot on Tuesday with the caption: "Pump up the tempo."

His followers flocked to the comments section to tell him how buff he looked - however Paige, 24, stayed silent.

Fans were quick to point out the 'snub', with one asking: "No comment by Paige? What's going on? Please tell me you are still together?"

Another said: "Where is Paige? You're not with each other very much."

While a third simply asked: "Where's Paige?"

The Welsh paramedic seemed to have other things on her mind after she was seeing partying up a storm at Notting Hill carnival on the weekend.

She looked stunning sporting a form-fitting, cut-out pink dress as she danced the day away with her friends, including Love Island's Antigoni Buxton.

Paige recently opened up about Adam reuniting with her mum in Wales after first meeting in the ITV2 villa.

Samantha wasn’t too keen on the Love Island veteran's romance with her daughter when she visited them in the villa, but it seems the 2018 troublemaker is now in her good books.

Paige’s mum gave her “savage” verdict on Adam to a smitten Paige during the annual Meet the Parents episode.

The paramedic was left shell-shocked after Samantha quietly said of Adam: “I’m not buying it.”

Reflecting on the awkward exchange on former Love Island star Toby Aromolaran’s podcast Fancy A Chat?, Paige said her “stomach dropped” in response to the comments.

She added: “They don't see everything and after what the girls told me about Adam, I know there would have been press out there. That kind of stuff she would have seen.

“So, at the time it wasn't nice to hear and obviously it was awkward breaking it to Adam, ‘my mum isn't a huge fan right now’, but he took it really well and understood.

However, since the show wrapped, Paige and Adam travelled to her home of Swansea together to bond with her family away from the cameras.

Paige explained: “We came out and obviously the first thing he said was, ‘I need to meet your mum’.

“So he came down to Swansea to meet my family in the bar – my mum went up to him straight away and she said, ‘I'm so sorry for being so savage’. Not my mum apologising – she doesn't do that often.

“Now she approves. I honestly didn't have one doubt she wouldn't. She just needs to meet him out of this environment and have a proper conversation."
