Jack Fincham has claimed he ‘can’t afford rehab’ and only has £20 to his name as he broke his silence on relapsing.
The confession comes during a turbulent period for Jack, 34, who recently opened up about hitting rock bottom in a candid Instagram confession.
Now, Jack has revealed he relapsed last year after a period of sobriety and desperately needs to go to rehab – however he doesn’t qualify for it on the NHS and he can’t afford to go private.
Speaking to The Sun, Jack said: ‘A few weeks before Christmas I started drinking heavily again, I need rehab but the Love Island millions have gone, I can’t afford it.’
He reportedly pulled out a £20 note and said all he has to his name was that cash his pocket, with nothing in the bank.
Last year, the former Love Island winner decided to have a drink after a period of sobriety, but it ‘spiralled’.

‘Since then I have done drugs, I have done laughing gas, I have been so drunk that I’ve kissed a woman over Christmas and don’t even remember doing it,’ he said.
‘I am embarrassed, mortified . . . of course I am, I feel like an idiot. I am a 33-year-old man, I should be settled down, married.’
The women Jack was referencing was Married At First Sight star Leisha Lightbody, who he was spotted kissing at Tulleys Farm’s Christmas light festival in November.
It was the first time he has been seen getting close to someone new, since his split from TOWIE’s Chloe Brockett.
In footage obtained by The Sun, the former Love Island winner leans in for a passionate kiss with Leisha, 31, a dental nurse who appeared in this year’s MAFS UK series.
She was matched with Reiss Boyce, 33, on the E4 show, but the pair parted ways shortly after their final vows due to long-distance pressures.
Meanwhile Jack and Chloe first got together in 2019 but have split several times over the years and even moved in together before their seventh split.
A source who witnessed the moment, told the publication: ‘Jack and Leisha were all over each other for the whole night and didn’t seem to care who was watching.

‘Leisha is clearly no longer heartbroken over Reiss and it looks like Jack’s definitely moved on from Chloe.’ They added: ‘It looked like a lot more than a drunken kiss’
The Daily Mail contacted Jack and Leisha’s representatives for comment at the time.
Jack recently opened up about hitting rock bottom in a candid Instagram confession.
Dressed in a colourful Fila shell suit, Jack spoke to the camera and opened up. He said: ‘I took a lot of bad advice over the years and had a lot of the wrong people around me.
‘I’ve made some massive mistakes, I’ve learned some really painful lessons over the years. Every mistake that I’ve made, I own them all, I own every single one, I ain’t a victim.’
Jack admitted: ‘Now what this new chapter is about it’s about showing you what it’s like to start from absolute rock bottom. It pains me to say it, but that’s exactly where I am, I’m at rock bottom.
‘I want to show you what its like with the right mindset with the right people around you that anything is possible.
Dressed in a colourful Fila shell suit, Jack spoke to the camera and opened up before writing a length caption about what his mistakes and hwat his plans for the future are
‘I know where I want to be, I know who I want to be. I’m not sitting here saying I’ve got it all figured out and I know what I’m doing cos I don’t.’
He added: ‘In order to to do this I’ve launched a YouTube channel cos I want you to come with me and really show you what it’s like to start from rock bottom and get to where you wanna be.’
Jack then confessed: ‘It’s gonna be a bit messy, uncut, raw and in my own words. Not what you read in a paper, not what you read online, my own words.
‘It’s my story and my journey. If you’ve ever felt you’re at rock bottom, or there was no way out, this YouTube channel is definitely for you. The first video will be coming very soon.’
