After two months together, 2023 Love Island Winners Jess and Sammy have split 😭💔

The Daily Mail reported that the pair had broken up.

“Jess and Sammy have called it quits. Things have changed since leaving the villa and Jess has realised they’re better off as friends,” a source told the outlet.

The pair beat Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowaki to the cash prize in the finale. 

Despite the fact Adebayo and Nowaki had consistently ranked as the viewers’ pick to win, it was aesthetics practitioner Harding and project manager Root, both 25, who won the final vote.

Tyrique Hyde and Ella Thomas, who have been a couple since the beginning, came in third place, while original islander Molly Marsh and Zachariah Noble came in fourth.

The winning couple’s journey began when Root entered the villa on day four as a “bombshell” and caught Harding’s eye, but the pair were in for a few ups and downs before officially becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.
