Love Island star CONFIRMS secret split from show boyfriend saying ‘we’re not together – let it go’
LOVE Island star Jess Spencer has confirmed she secretly split with Ayo Odukoya – and tells fans: “Let it go”.
The pair were not officially boyfriend and girlfriend when they left the villa but appeared to be going from strength to strength.
However, rumours of a rift were sparked last week when Ayo removed on trace of Jess from his social media.
After posting a video of her outfit on TikTok, Jess was told: “Girl he needs to ask you yesterday.”
She replied to her follower, writing: “‘Girl‘ says who?? The internet??
“He doesn’t need to ask me anything because we’re not together. Let it go.”
The surprise comment led one fan to reply: “Damn the scream I just screamed! I love you more for this..oh Jess hope you okay tho.”
Ayo brutally edited a caption he wrote after Love Island to not include any reference to Jess.
However Jess still has pictures with Ayo on her Instagram grid.
After leaving the villa she posted a snap of her kissing Ayo and wrote: “Villa dumpppp! What a time!! From casa to finals.
“I just wanted to say Thankyou to every single person from the bottom of my heart that has taken their time to message, show love and vote!! I never ever expected to come out to this amount of support and love my time in the villa was incredible, something I will never forget and always keep close to my heart – memories and friendships made for a lifetime.
“Also to @loveisland especially and everyone behind it all Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou!!! Ps obsesseddddd with u all.”
Ayo and Jess came in in fourth place but their time in the villa was shrouded in controversy after Ayo ditched Mimii in a shock Casa Amor move for Jess.
Despite picking to stay with Jess, viewers and a number of the islanders were convinced that Ayo still had feelings for Mimii.
In fact, Ayo’s ‘relationship’ with Mimii was at the centre of a number of rows, even when Mimii had moved on with Josh, who she ended up winning the show with.
Ayo’s brother even said he wasn’t sure about Jess when he entered the villa on family day.
During the final episode, Ayo declared his love for Jess, saying: “I am obsessed with you.. I know we say ‘Love you’ in passing, but the reality of it is that I do love you.”
