Jack Fincham admits to taking cocaine

Jack Fincham has admitted to taking cocaine since finding fame on ‘Love Island’.
The 26-year-old hunk won the ITV2 reality show with his girlfriend Dani Dyer – whose father is ‘EastEnders’ star Danny Dyer – over the summer last year, and he has revealed that in the wake of his TV triumph, he caved in to temptation after being offered the drug.
Jack has insisted he’ll never take the Class A drug again, and says he "regrets" accepting it in the first place.
He said: "I’m in a new world of partying and stuff, and being in circles that I would never normally have been in. I’d never normally be in these situations but, yes, since winning the show I have been offered cocaine a lot.
"But I went out all night, I was drinking and I just got ­carried away and made a stupid, stupid mistake which I wish I’d never done, you know. I regret it."
The reality star says the one-off incident was down to a "complete error in judgement", and it isn’t something he’s "made a habit of".
He added: "In the past I would never have found myself in a club where everyone wants to be your friend – but obviously they’re not really your friends at all. Before I couldn’t really afford to go out and drink all night with how expensive it is.
"But all of a sudden I’m being offered free drinks the whole night, getting more drunk than I ever would have been before and I’ve gone along with it. That night it was a complete error in judgment. It’s a silly thing to do, it’s not something I’ve made a habit of. I mean, what an idiot.
"It’s not a reflection of my character, but I’ve had a blowout. It was a lapse in judgment, but it’s not something that I’ll ever do again."
Beyond the damage cocaine could do to Jack’s health, he also knows he would put his career on the line if he was to take the drug again, so will be steering clear of it in the future.
He said: "This has made me think, and I’ve realised now especially how much I’ve actually got to lose.
"I’ve been working hard for the stuff that I’ve been doing so far. I never want to mess that up, ever. I’ve been so grateful to even get in this position anyway. All the hard work I’ve done to get into this position I’d never want to mess that up with just one silly lapse of judgment."
Jack also discouraged his fans from making the same mistake.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre TV column, he said: "I’d say I’ve made a mistake and now I’ve got to deal with it. That was my mistake, but don’t do it. Nothing good ever comes from it."
