The 2022 islander - whose bid for love on the ITV2 series ended in a dumping - has, once again, shared loved-up pics with the gorgeous brunette during their Cancun, Mexico holiday.
In a pair of snaps, the pair strolled along the sand hand-in-hand, with Jay beaming at his other half as she smiled at the camera.
He kept things casual in a white tee and black shorts, while she turned heads in a strapless cream minidress.
Other photos showed the beauty, who hasn’t been tagged or named, blowing a kiss towards the camera over dinner and snuggled up in bed with a dog.
In his caption, Jay wrote: "Mexico 2025."
In a string of pics summing up 2024, Jay first revealed the petite brunette to his followers.
Among them, they could be seen wrapped up in jackets and snuggled together in New York and riding bikes around London.
While the now not-so mystery woman has been shared to the world, Love Island fans couldn’t resist disccusing her striking resemblance to Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, who Jay dated during his time in the villa.
Although they didn’t quite work out, with Ekin-Su going on to win that year’s series with Davide Sanclimenti, it seems the pair are on good terms.
In fact, Ekin was one of the first to celebrate his new relationship, responding to the pics and commenting: “Yes Jay! she’s beautiful.”
I was on Love Island and producers wouldn’t let me pick the girl I wanted
But one fan quickly responded: “she looks EXACTLY like you in the 5th slide” while another noted “@ekinsuofficial I thought it was you 😆”
“I think she looks like Ekin x” said another in the comments.
Jay arrived on Love Island as a bombshell during the eighth series on the show, stirring up trouble by taking three of the girls on dates.
A couple of days later, Ekin-Su chose to couple up with him.
However, the pair’s spark quickly fizzled out, with Jay choosing Paige Thorne to couple up with, while Ekin-Su returned to Davide.
He later coupled up with Danica Taylor, before meeting Chyna Mills and switching to her during Casa Amor.
Jay and Chyna were eventually dumped on Day 35 of the show following a public vote, and Jay later claimed that the producers had too much say in who he coupled up with, affecting his time in the villa.
The couple did not remain together on the outside, with Chyna now in a relationship with Strictly Come Dancing pro Neil Jones, with whom she has a baby girl.
Jay revealed that just weeks after leaving the villa, he went back to his desk job as an investment analyst.
Paige is now being rumoured to be part of next year's All Stars line-up, returning to the villa once more.
Love Island All Stars will be back for its second series in 2025 - and rumours are already rife as to who will be making a comeback this time around.
After the second All Stars series was announced in May, show boss Mike Spender said: "Lots of people have been in contact about it, lots of fun people, from series one onwards.
"We cast it because we knew what was going on behind the scenes of who was getting with who and now even more stories have come out.
"I think we will now save ex-islanders for All Stars."
One rumoured name for the next series is data engineer Harry Baker.
Harry, 25, arrived in the villa as a bombshell in Series 11. He soon 'stole' Grace Jackson after making his debut.
Arriving late in the run, he only lasted for a few days before being dumped alongside Lola Deloca.
Despite the hunk's brief stint, viewers have called for Harry's return.
One upset fan wrote: "Get you in All Stars next", to which Harry cryptically replied by posting 'shrugging' emojis.
