Jack Fincham admitted to being “dreadfully unwell” at the time of filming the ITV show Dinner Date while he was taking drugs and was recalled.
After biting two people and injuring one person, the former Love Island star recently found himself in legal trouble. He was given a six-week jail term. Jack has admitted to making TV appearances while he was high or withdrawn from drugs as a result of his legal woes.
“The other day, I watched a Dinner Date episode and realized how awfully unwell I was. I looked awful. I don’t know what I was even doing on TV”, he said in a new interview.
Jack is currently dating former TOWIE star Chloe Brockett, but he originally wanted to get married on Dinner Date in 2021.
Jack’s difficult first few years since taking the stage at Love Island in 2018, where he and ex-girlfriend Dani Dyer won the show, are revealed in the new interview with The Sun. After the villa stint, the pair abruptly split and didn’t survive the distance on the outside.
Jack admitted to trying to kill himself while taking a short break with Chloe in a West Midlands country hotel while also talking about struggling with his mental health in the interview. After realizing he had 30 TV shows, he went on IMDB and said he “had nothing to show for this.”
“I’d had the world at my feet, but the addictions destroyed everything”, he explained. He lost 1 million followers on social media, which he described was a “horrible feeling”. While spiralling with his thoughts, he ordered “sambucas, prosecco, five vodkas at a time”, before he started gambling on his phone.
However, he thought he ‘ lost his last penny ‘ while being ‘ off his head ‘ and gambling online. Thinking he had nothing to his name, he said to himself: “I don’t want to be here anymore, I’ve had enough. I am a f***ing loser”. His girlfriend eluded the reception and called the ambulance because she was afraid that he would end his life. She then pleaded with the staff to stop serving him drinks.
