Adam Maxted is an Irish professional wrestler who discovered his love of the sport after first appearing on Love island back in 2016.

Unlike several of his fellow bombshells, Adam decided to swerve away from fame in pursuit of an athletic career instead and has even competed as a wrestler across the UK and Ireland and even internationally in countries such as France and Pakistan.

Adam is so skilled at his chosen sport, he even currently holds the OTT Tag Team Championship title and even holds the record for longest reigning OTT Gender Neutral with his tenure lasting 560 days.

While appearing on Love Island back in 2016, Adam was coupled up with fellow contestant Katie Salmon for most of his time in the villa – with the couple even making it all the way to the grand final of the show.

Sadly however the couple fell at the final hurdle and placed fourth overall in the competition, having lost out to eventual winners Cara De La Hoyde and Nathan Massey.

Although the pair left the villa together, Adam and Katie soon parted ways after a mere two weeks outside of the competition.

Following what appeared to be a messy split, Adam took to Twitter to brutally write: “It’s like when you’re eating a kebab after a night out & the first few bites taste good but then u realise that it really isn’t nice at all! [sic]”

Katie then fired back: “It’s like getting socks at Christmas. Practical but no fun.”

Despite the tense break-up, Katie later went on to find love elsewhere and is now a proud mother to her two year old daughter Thaiga.
