Jamie Rhodes Rushed to Hospital Over Gruesome Screw Accident

This week, the Love Island villa found itself in a bit of a crisis when fan favorite Jamie Rhodes was rushed to the hospital after an accident. The incident caused a temporary halt to filming and left both the cast and fans worried.

Fortunately, the Casa Amor star is back, bandaged up and ready to dive back into all the drama.

What Happened to Jamie Rhodes?

The 26-year-old electrical engineer had a mishap in the villa garden, stepping on a loose screw that required stitches. Medics on-site quickly evaluated him and decided he needed further treatment in the hospital, prompting a short pause in filming.

A source close to the production shared some details:

“Jamie was taken to the hospital after stepping on a screw in the garden. After talking with the villa medics, they decided he should go to the hospital. Filming was briefly stopped, and everyone was really anxious since it’s pretty rare for anyone to leave the villa.”

Producers were reportedly concerned that Jamie might be seen outside the villa, which would break the show’s isolation rules. Luckily, he returned shortly after, and the garden was thoroughly checked to ensure there were no other hazards.

Fans quickly took to social media to express their shock and support for Jamie, with many praising his spirit. One fan tweeted:

“Jamie stepping on a screw and still coming back to party at the LI Festival is iconic. Give this man the crown already!”

Others raised concerns about the safety within the villa, questioning how such an incident could occur. Meanwhile, Jamie and his partner, Yasmin Pettet, continue to be strong contenders for the win, with fans dubbing them the season’s most genuine couple.

What’s Next for Jamie and the Villa?

Despite the scare, Jamie made it back in time for the LI Festival 2025, where Tinie Tempah performed for the Islanders. His return has eased fans’ worries about his recovery, although the bandaged foot is a reminder of the unexpected dangers that can pop up in paradise.

With the finale just around the corner, all eyes are now on Jamie and Yasmin. Will this incident bring them closer together, or will new twists throw a wrench in their plans?
