Faye Winter hit our screens on Love Island series seven (how could we forget that infamous brown lipstick?) and finished the show in third place alongside then-boyfriend Teddy Soares.

Faye and Teddy outlasted all the other couples from the 2021 series and were the only pair still together following Millie Court and Liam Reardon's split in July 2022. But now there are no remaining couples from series seven as Faye has confirmed she and Teddy have split.

Rumours have plagued the pair for months, and now the sad news has been officially confirmed.

Taking to her Instagram story to address the speculation, Faye wrote, "I wanted to let you know that after lots of time and consideration, Teddy and I have decided to go our separate ways.

"Thank you all so much for supporting our relationship and sharing the journey with us. I'm forever grateful."

Signing off the post from her and her dog, Faye ended with, "Lots of love, Faye and Bonnie 🤍."

It's thought that Teddy has moved out of their shared home following the split. He previously said, "I do not wish to comment on rumours speculating our relationship and ask for you to respect our privacy at this time."

The two then stayed together happily until Casa Amor, which REALLY stirred things up for the two of them.

After Faye saw a postcard that was sent to the main villa of Teddy kissing Clarisse Juliette (as Faye says "a picture says a thousand words"), Faye decided to beat Teddy at his own game by coupling up with Casa boy Sam Jackson. Karma really does come back around, huh? But Faye had quite the shock when Teddy came back into the villa alone and disappointed to see Faye sat with Sam. Faye then found out that Teddy was only kissing Clarisse for a game and after a very emotional chat, they decided to rekindle things.

They then stayed coupled up until the end, where they came third place.
