JACK Fincham has broken his silence on being axed from Celebs Ex on the Beach.<\/p>\n
The reality star admitted he was sacked from filming the series while en route to the airport – after keeping his drug-drive arrest secret from MTV bosses.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
In an emotional interview with The Sun, Jack opened up about addiction battle since winning Love Island in 2018.<\/p>\n
Alongside using class A\u00a0drugs, including cocaine, Jack admits taking at least 30 diazepam pills a day to cope with his crippling anxiety.<\/p>\n
Jack was arrested\u00a0by\u00a0police\u00a0in August for drug-driving, for which investigations are ongoing.<\/p>\n
He insists he has been clean ever since – and his conviction in October has helped change his life.<\/p>\n
Admitting he was banned from appearing on MTV's Celebs Ex on the Beach, Jack told us: "I literally had my bags packed and in hand, walking to the taxi to go to the airport when I got a call.<\/p>\n "I was told I was being stood down this time and that I couldn't go.<\/p>\n "It was embarrassing. I'd just said bye to my neighbours and then suddenly I had to turn around.<\/p>\n "MTV said they think I'm great and they love me, but until that case is closed they can't have me on the show."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Jack had not informed show bosses of his latest arrest, which came fives months after he was accused of the same charge.<\/p>\n "They saw it in the newspapers," Jack said.<\/p>\n "Of course I didn't want to tell them. I have so much I need to pay for.<\/p>\n "It's hard, man. I lost the full fee. That put me well behind.<\/p>\n "I'm in the process of building myself back up – which is hence why I'm back selling office supplies. Stick to what you know."<\/p>\n Jack secretly spent time in rehab in 2020 after being tricked by his mum into going.<\/p>\n He has been arrested three times for drug-driving and in October was handed a\u00a036-month\u00a0driving\u00a0ban\u00a0and given 60 hours' community service.<\/p>\n Jack\u00a0has vowed to turn over a new leaf insisting he's been clean since August – the longest he's been drug-free since his eight-week stretch in the\u00a0Love Island\u00a0villa in 2018.<\/p>\n<\/picture>heartbreak <\/span><\/p>\n
