It makes sense!

Rosie Williams' EPIC showdown with Adam Collard was one of the highlight's of this year's Love Island - but it will not be repeated in the show's Christmas reunion special, which has now been confirmed to air later this year.
Rosie has apparently turned down a big money offer to return to the show because she doesn't want to see love Adam who publicly dumped her to get together with Zara McDermott - which is fair enough.
According to Metro.co.uk, a friend of Rosie's revealed that ITV "begged her" to go back, and reportedly offered her "a lot of money" because they "want to see the reaction between her, Adam and Zara."
They added, "But she doesn't want to be put in that situation again - Rosie tends to downplay it a lot, but what happened on Love Island had such a negative effect on her anxiety.
"She wasn’t herself during the show, so when her friends heard there was a Christmas special they were praying she wouldn't go anywhere near him out of fear for her mental health. Her decision not to do it is down to the anxiety she had during her time in the villa."
