The photos and a video clip, which shows Zara completely naked, were passed around on WhatsApp after she entered the Love Island villa this week and are now widespread.

A source close to the family tells The Sun Online “they are shocked and disappointed that anyone would breach her trust in this way”.

The personal leaked images are sure to devastate Zara, who has no idea what's happened while she's filming the show inside the villa.

Zara works in the Department of Education under Damian Hinds, and briefs ministers and guides the rules and principles of government.

Or, as she put it in the Love Island villa, she “makes the laws”.

Before she entered the house, she said: “I think my job is quite different. A lot of people are interested in what I do on a day-to-day basis.

“There are two sides to me – I can be quite serious but I’m also spontaneous, fun and energetic.”

The Sun revealed how Zara didn’t tell her bosses that she was going on Love Island – just asked for a career break.

A government source said: “She said she was taking a career break to work on TV but did not give specific details.

“She needs to be very careful because the rules are quite vague about what would be deemed bad behaviour so she could end up getting sacked.”

Tonight, Love Island viewers will see Adam Collard dump Rosie Williams in favour of Zara after they connected on a romantic date.

After a row, Rosie breaks down in tears, saying: “He’s said to me things about having a future together. You can’t do that and have your head turned two seconds later because a new face has walked in.

“He told me that he did see me as a girlfriend, which is why he hasn’t rushed. I’m not being funny, I don’t do things with people unless they mean something. I did it because I thought this was something real, I thought we had something.”

Before arriving at the villa she had told The Sun she’d “laugh off” anything from her past that came back to haunt her in her time on TV.

Laura said: “To be honest I am a bit of a geek. There wouldn’t be anything out there on me. I definitely don’t have a sex tape. Something is bound to happen but I’ll just have to laugh it off.”
