LOVE Island’s Reuben Collins has returned to his day job after leaving the villa.
Just a few weeks ago he was lounging by the sun-drenched pool in Majorca.
The professional footballer entered the show as a bombshell and left with Grace Jackson.
He is now back on the pitch with Chertsey FC.
Reuben is a semi-professional footballer who was looking for one in Love Island this summer.
The sportsman played for Chertsey Town FC before entering the show and was back on the pitch on Saturday.
He posted videos on Instagram and revealed they played Tiverton Town FC and won the match.
In 2024, Reuben celebrated a promotion from the Isthmian League South Central after his team championed the season.
The centre back has played for a number of clubs including AFC Wimbledon and Truro City.
Speaking about his career as a footballer he told Planet Football: “It’s just the love of the game.
“Literally as soon as I could walk, it’s just been everything to me.
“If I could live at the training ground I would.
“It’s hard to put into words. Just going out in the garden and doing drills, I find satisfaction in that.
“Currently, all my satisfaction in life is coming from football.
“I know that a lot of people my age have other focuses and influences but, for me, it’s always been football.”
Reuben was axed alongside Grace after the islanders were faced with a variety of poll questions in a day challenge known as #CoupleofSorts.
The challenge involved couples attempting to rank themselves in the correct order of first, second and third position on the podium – to match the predicted votes of the public.
During the dramatic challenge, the islanders were faced with their final question: ‘Which couple is least likely to work on the outside?’
Reuben and Grace took first place on the podium then out of nowhere, they received an unexpected text which rocked the Villa.
The text read by Josh confirmed that the public had ranked Reuben and Grace the couple least likely to work on the outside, and therefore were dumped from the island.
Since leaving the villa Grace and Reuben have attended a red carpet premiere and the reunion party.
However she sparked rumours they’d split when she was spotted dancing the night away with Omar Nyame at the GRM Gala.
