Love Island's Jack Fincham forgets social distancing at pub's packed dance floor

Love Island's Jack Fincham forgot to social distance at a massive party at a pub.

The reality star, 26, planted a kiss on the cheek of a brunette bombshell while he was mixing with many different people at The Swan in West Malling, Kent, on Bank Holiday Monday.

Social distancing had been promised at The Swan's £120-per-head Bank Holiday bonanza but Jack's pictures on Instagram were telling a different story.

There was meant to be no dance floor but people packed into the middle of the marquee where strangers mingled together within close proximity.

"There won't be a dance floor and we ask that you don't form the conga at any point.

"We will be adhering to COVID-19 guidelines and expect everyone joining us to do the same, if our rules are followed we will stay healthy and safe." 

The pub's guests were seated in groups of up to eight people and a minimum of six per table.
