Love Island UK's Adam Maxted looks very different to how he during his time on the show in 2016.

The Season 2 star, who finished in fourth place alongside Katie Salmon, has undergone a dramatic post-show transformation since rising to fame on the match-making show.

In recent images shared to his Instagram page, Adam is now sporting peroxide blond hair rather than his natural brunette locks.

Adam entered the Love Island UK Villa on Day 16, and was initially Coupled Up with Olivia Buckland.

However, their romance was short-lived and she soon moved on to Alex Bowen.

The couple went on to marry, and welcomed their first child together earlier this year.

While on the show, Adam was also romantically linked to Zara Holland, Liana Isadora Van Rie and Tina Stinnes, but he went on to Couple Up with Katie and they finished fourth.

However, their romance didn't last, and he confirmed his single status in a Tweet less than a week after filming finished.

"100 per cent single. It's like when you're eating a kebab after a night out & the first few bites taste good but then u realise that it really isn't nice at all!" he wrote at the time.

Katie didn't seem too upset by the post and responded, "It's like getting socks at Christmas. Practical but no fun."
