Whitney  and Lochan met on Love Island in 2023, with the pair placing as runners up and embarking on a rocky love story, which ultimately led to their break-up.

However, just a month after their split, Lochan has dropped a hint he may have already moved on.

It came after he shared a video of himself with influencer Nguyen Yeats-Brown.

The pair had taken part in a celebrity tennis tournament and seemed to be getting on VERY well.

In the short video, they appeared to have great chemistry and at one point Nguyen put her head on the former Islander's shoulder.

WHITNEY WAS 'BAMBOOZLED'

Earlier this month, Whitney revealed she felt "bamboozled" by her split from Lochan.

Speaking on her podcast, she said: "Some people don't wanna compromise."

"Because my last relationship...." Whitney then trailed off before announcing she was "getting into it".

She then explained that when he would "come over" he told her how much she had "changed".

Whitney recalled how he said: "I've seen how much you've changed, and you're becoming like the woman that we always spoke about you becoming.

"And I'm just not willing to do that."

Josh, Whitney's friend who stood in for podcast co-host Lizzy, then said how he feels that some men "don't like seeing the other partner grow".

Whitney then admitted: "I was bamboozled. This is the person that you told me you wanted."

She then spoke to listeners and said how she hadn't "changed for a man" but instead changed how she spoke to him.

Josh then chimed in and explained how he had noticed how Whitney had "calmed down" a lot when in confrontational situations, such as past arguments with her ex.

Whitney admitted that she was "very hot-headed" in her relationship, adding how "with time I understood the power of less is more".

She then praised her ex and said: "He actually did calm me down and help me tame my emotions."

"He taught me silence," she added.

Beauty mogul Whitney entered the villa on Day 3, and experienced highs and lows on the hit ITV2 reality show, stealing contestant Andre Furtado, 22, the same day she entered into the villa.

She coupled up with Mehdi Edno, 26, on Day 5, and in a surprising turn of events, she took personal trainer Zachariah Noble, 26, out on a date but their chemistry would soon fizzle out.

Her luck changed in Week 5, when Windsor-born Lochan entered Cara Amor on Day 26. On Day 31, Whitney chose to couple up with Lochan.

The show favourites lost out on the winning spot to Jess Harding, 23, and Sammy Root, 23 on the show finale on Day 58.

She recently told how the pair were planning to move in together.

Yet in July 2024, eyebrows were raised after the pair unfollowed each other on social media then attended an event together - leaving some fans calling out a "publicity stunt."

THE BREAK-UP

The couple announced they had split last month.

Revealing the sad news to fans, Lochan said he and Whitney are "forever grateful" for the support given to them as a couple.

The confirmation came weeks after fans began speculating that the reality stars had broken up.

Admitting the rumours were true, Lochan said: "Hey guys, unfortunately Whitney and I's relationship has come to an end.

"Thank you for all the love and support that you've show us through our journey, we're forever grateful."
