Zara also recently said she has 'no regrets' abut her time on the show, after being booted off. 

An ITV and Love Island spokesperson told MailOnline on Wednesday that they have professionals on site to help support contestants if needed.

During an appearance on spin-off show Aftersun on Sunday, Zara was adamant she had 'no regrets' despite causing chaos on the show after she broke the news of Tom's dalliance with Ellie, 25, to her fellow Islanders.

On Monday, Zara fumed as she learned of Tom's kiss with Ellie just hours after the pair had decided to end their coupling.

When asked if she had any doubts about going straight for Tom by show host Maya Jama, 28, Zara responded: 'I regret nothing. Our connection was completely mutual. It's really intense in there, a day feels like a week.
