Love Island Star Ella Thomas and Footballer Lloyd Jones Seemingly Part Ways
Love Island series 10 icon Ella Thomas has reportedly split from her footballer boyfriend, Lloyd Jones, after eight months of a public relationship. The couple, who confirmed their romance in May 2025, have sparked breakup speculation following recent social media activity.
Social Media Clues Point to Relationship Breakdown
Neither Ella Thomas nor Charlton Athletic defender Lloyd Jones has officially commented on the alleged separation. However, significant indicators suggest their romance has ended. Both have unfollowed each other on Instagram and removed all posts featuring one another from their respective grids, a common digital signal of a relationship conclusion.
The pair had become known for their affectionate public appearances, including cute collaborative TikToks and Ella's regular attendance at Lloyd's football matches to show her support pitchside.
Ella's Past Relationship and Fan Reactions
This development follows Ella's previous high-profile relationship with fellow Love Island contestant Tyrique Hyde, with whom she placed third in the series. Their on-and-off romance concluded permanently in November 2024.
Interestingly, news of the potential split with Lloyd prompted contact from Ella's ex, Tyrique. During a live Twitch stream, Tyrique had a friend call Ella via a no caller ID number, though she ultimately hung up after realising who was on the line.
Fan reactions have been mixed across social media platforms:
- Some supporters are advocating for a reunion with Tyrique, with comments like "They gon run it back now Ella single" and "Need them back together since Ella single now."
- Other fans expressed disappointment at the news, with one stating "No I was rooting for them!" and another saying "This has hurt me guys."
The Beginning of Their Public Romance
Lloyd Jones was the first to publicly acknowledge their relationship on May 4th, 2025, sharing a sweet photograph of Ella supporting him as he accepted Charlton Athletic's Player of the Season award. Their relationship had been viewed by many as "relationship goals" throughout its duration.
As of now, both parties remain silent on the speculation, leaving fans awaiting any official confirmation or statement regarding the status of their relationship.
