However, Jack has recently revealed that the moment was filmed multiple times in the Casa Amor villa, adding that he was "surprised" when bosses asked him to repeat the chat.

Speaking to the MailOnline, the 23-year-old said about his time on the show: "I think the biggest, most surprising thing for me is just like how many times they have to build things if they want to get different shots, different angles, different conversations.

"The [producers] will ask you again to sit down and have the same conversation again and bring up the same sort of things. That's what I thought was the most surprising thing."

Jack continued that the producers "just wanted to get some more footage" of the conversation although he wasn't "too sure" of the reason why.

"They were just like, 'Can you go sit down by the pool again and have a chat about your dads.' I was like, 'How are we gonna get this conversation back going again?' That was definitely the most surprising thing I think."
