Chloe Brockett pays heartfelt Valentine’s Day tribute to embattled boyfriend Jack Fincham amid his legal woes and revelation £1M drug addiction led to harrowing suicide attempt

Chloe Brockett took to Instagram to pay a gushing Valentine’s Day tribute to embattled boyfriend Jack Fincham on Friday.

The TOWIE star, 24, shared sweets snaps of the pair and gushed over the ex Love Island winner, 32, declaring she would love him ‘always’.

Last week, after being bailed from jail over his dog attacking a runner, Jack opened up on ‘blowing £1million on drugs, booze and gambling’ and how things got so bad he tried to end his life.

In a show of support Chloe posted a snap to her grid of her and a shirtless Jack at the side of the ring following his recent boxing match, she wrote: ‘Happy Valentines to my [heart]… I love you always’.

The stunner then took to her Stories with more pH๏τos, including a cosy sH๏τ of the beaming couple, who have been dating since 2019, and wrote: ‘Life with you is the best’. 

Chloe has been at Jack’s side after he candidly confessed how his life took a bad turn thanks to his addictions, which at one point saw him spent a whopping £40,000 in one day on online Blackjack.

He also detailed how he hit rock bottom as he attempted to take his own life last year by throwing himself off a H๏τel balcony.

Speaking to The Sun about the dark period in his life, Jack explained how he attempted to take his own life by throwing himself off a balcony during a break to a West Midlands country H๏τel with girlfriend Chloe. 

The father-of-one recalled how he checked himself on IMDB [a TV and film database] while in the H๏τel room and seeing himself in 30 TV shows, realised he’d ‘messed up’ his life because he had ‘nothing to show’ for his fame.

Admitting that his addictions ‘destroyed everything’ after having the world at his feet, Jack began to order excessive amounts of booze from room service, knocking back the drinks one by one.

He also began gambling on his phone, and after wrongly believing he’d spent the last of his money, he began have thoughts that his life wasn’t worth living as he’d ‘had enough’.

As worried girlfriend Chloe headed downstairs to warn staff not to serve him anymore and to call an ambulance for fears he would kill himself, Jack jumped off the balcony.

Looking back at the harrowing moment, Jack told the publication: ‘I remember weighing up the options, thinking, ‘I’ve nothing left to give here. Not a penny to my name. Nothing is salvageable.’ We were in a hillside lodge and I jumped. If I’d have dived at a different angle, I may not be here today. That is scary.’

Jack survived the suicide attempt and was later taken away by the police to sober up, miraculously escaping with just a busted ankle that left him unable to walk for weeks.

 Jack also noted the scary similarities to that of Liam Payne’s shock death a short time later, with the TV star noting: ‘It could have been me.’ 

Also in the interview he admitted he feels like a failure after blowing £1million pounds on drugs, booze and gambling.

The TV personality soared to fame after winning Love Island in 2018 with then-girlfriend Dani Dyer. 

But while her career has gone from strength-to-strength, Jack’s life hasn’t quite followed on the same successful path.

Jack has since turned his life around, having consumed no drink or drugs at New Year’s for the first time in his adult life.

With the love and support of his family and girlfriend, he’s doing a degree in financial trading but has also been forced to return to selling stationary – the job he did before finding fame – as he’s now ‘worse off financially’ than before Love Island.

It comes after Jack opened up about his ‘testing time’ after he was freed on bail as he appeals his jail sentence for a dog attack.

The Love Island winner was jailed for six weeks after pleading guilty last month after his Cane Corso mauled a runner in north Kent in 2022.

Last month Jack immediately lodged an appeal following his sentencing at Southend Magistrates’ Court.

The Love Island winner was jailed for six weeks after pleading guilty after his Cane Corso mauled a runner in north Kent in 2022 

He appeared at Southend-on-Sea Magistrates’ Court facing two counts of being in charge of a dangerously out-of-control dog on Wednesday.

He pleaded guilty to the charges, which included a separate incident involving a woman occurring in Grays, EsSєx, in June 2024, although no injury was reported on that occasion.

The former TOWIE regular was sentenced to six weeks behind bars after the judge determined handing Fincham a further suspended sentence was not appropriate.

When the verdict was read out on Wednesday, his on-and-off girlfriend Chloe Brockett burst into tears and was ushered out of the court room by his relatives, who were also in attendance.
