Who is Adam Collard?
Adam Collard was born on October 26, 1995 and comes from Newcastle.
He is a personal trainer and gym director, working at Aurora Athletic where he charges £700 for 20 one-on-one training sessions.
Often he is remembered as the first contestant to strip naked in his season of the show.
Before Love Island, Adam also briefly appeared in season 12 of Geordie Shore.
After his last stint on the show, he and Islander Zara McDermott continued to date.
The Geordie opened up with Zara about how he had been bullied as a child for his appearance.

Adam said: “I had a bit of a right time in school with people…. got picked on and stuff like that.
“…just standard stuff that everyone gets but I took it to heart a lot more than other people.”
He also revealed an ex dumping him had been part of his fitness motivation.
Why is Adam Collard back on Love Island?
The fitness trainer is returning to once again try to find love.
Adam is the first person ever to return to the villa on a whole new season, perhaps things will be different for him the second time round.
Maybe not though as Adam said: “I’m going to ruffle feathers when I go in.”
He certainly spiced things up the first time with his stints in Casa Amor so who knows what trouble this bad boy could get into.
A show source said: “Adam genuinely wants to see if he can find love.

“He and Zara dated for eight months after leaving the villa and while that didn’t work out, he trusts the process.
“For this year’s Islanders, the whole concept will be totally mindblowing – not only is Adam gorgeous but he knows how the show works – if any of the girls really are in there for money and fame not love, Adam will suss them out.
“This is going to cause fireworks.”
His return shakes up the whole show and begs the question who else would fans want to see return for round two at Casa Amor.
When was Adam Collard last on Love Island?
Adam’s first outing to the villa was back in 2018 on season four when he was 22 years old.
He entered as part of a twist where he could steal the girlfriend from another lad.
In this case he chose to date Kendall who he ditched a week later for Rosie.
Adam stuck with Rosie until day 20 when Zara walked in as a new girl, the pair coupled up until they were forcibly split.
