Tom is a former Guiseley School pupil - but now lives in Manchester.

The 29-year-old was voted out by the villa's girls after a public vote put him among the bottom four couples.

His stint in the villa was marred by a series of fiery rows with love interest Maura Higgins, who he coupled up with after a successful first date.

Tom, who has modelled for Calvin Klein and Nike, upset the Irish ring girl after badmouthing her behind her back, which led to the villa's girls turning against him when it came to the vote.

He'd been ditched by Maura, 28, earlier on in the episode.

But friends and family hope he could make a return to the villa as wildcard.

Posting on his Instagram page on Friday, they said: "Who thinks Tom would make a good wild card ?"
