Adam Collard and Lottie Moss have been left hung out to dry by the Celebs Go Dating agents after it was revealed they slept together.

Despite the former Love Island star, 27, and model, 25, signing up to the show to be matched up with potential suitors by experts, they instead quickly took matters into their own hands and decided to express their interest in each other early on.

While there’s been rumours swirling for months about their apparent fling, the pair were forced to fess up on the reality series, each individually sharing on last night’s episode they’d spent the night together after a dating event that had been put on to help the celebrities meet other people.

The experts were far from impressed, with one going so far as to label Adam a ‘d***head’ after the admission.

After every one of the famous faces, which also includes presenter Vanessa Feltz, former Islander Chloe Burrows, comedian and internet personality Spuddz and Made in Chelsea’s Mark-Francis Vandelli, got some feedback in person from dates on Thursday’s episode, a curveball was thrown when Lottie was told to stand up in front of the group and share what had happened between her and Adam.

Knowing she was about to be put under the spotlight, Lottie quickly asked ‘why’ and said she was ‘scared’ while Adam looked resigned to the fact he was about to be pulled into the unfolding drama.

Almost immediately suspecting what had happened, the other famous faces gasped, but also looked like they were trying to contain their laughter.

After being reminded by agent Paul Carrick Brunson, who said that each had ‘come to the agency this week and told us…’, Lottie jumped in and exclaimed: ‘F*** off, why are you doing this to me right now.’

‘You told us that you both spent the night together,’ he continued.

‘Oh, Jesus Christ why did you do this to me,’ she repeated, while Adam just looked dumbfounded.

The pair were then asked to ‘explain’ their relationship and tell the guy and girl they’d picked to go on other dates with what went on.

Despite the awkwardness, their dates took it on the chin and said they were happy to meet up with Adam abd Lottie again but looked somewhat unimpressed about what they’d just found out.

However, as agent Anna Williamson said, dating was ‘about honesty and respect’ and while they didn’t have an issue with the celebrity pair ‘exploring each other’, they didn’t like that it had been kept a secret.

After confirming they were an item this week, Lottie shared details about her blossoming romance with Adam and said her beau was ‘soppy’ and loved a cuddle.

‘When I first saw Adam I was like, “Nah, he’s not my type. Literally not my type at all” and then bam’, she recalled while appearing on Chloe’s Chloe Vs The Word podcast.

She went on to say they had a ‘special connection’.

Celebs Go Dating continues Monday at 9pm on Channel 4.
