Paige Turley has taken to social media to break her silence after reportedly splitting up with her former Love Island co-star and boyfriend, Finley Tapp.
The couple, who met three years ago when they won the first winter edition of the popular ITV2 show, have reportedly called it quits, with Paige moving out of their shared home in Manchester.
Paige, who is known for her singing talent, shared a photo on Instagram of an unusual meal consisting of white and milk chocolate, strawberries, and Space Invader crisps, with the caption “What a set up.”
The post sparked speculation among fans about the status of her relationship with Finn.
While Paige has returned to her native Scotland, Finn has been spending time in the United States with his friends, sharing food snaps and hiking in the Hollywood hills on his social media accounts.
A source close to the couple revealed, “Paige and Finn had a really good run, but they are still super young and decided it wasn’t forever in the end. Paige is spending some time back in Scotland while she works out what she wants to do next,” as reported by the Sun.
Finn and Paige quickly moved in together after winning Love Island in 2020, and they navigated the challenges of the Covid-19 lockdown as a couple.
Finn even got a tattoo of Paige’s name, and they credited the lockdown for giving them the opportunity to get to know each other without the distractions of showbiz events.
Reflecting on their experience, Paige shared, “When we came out into the press debrief, they said to us ‘this has come out, this and this etc’ and then ‘also, one more thing – there’s a thing called Covid’ but [implied] it was just a cold and that was kind of it until three weeks later [when lockdowns began].” Finn humorously added, “It was like ‘there’s a dangerous killer virus called Covid’ and we were like ‘shut up – who called me ugly online? You just want to see the funniest memes about you.”
Last year, fans speculated about a possible split between Paige and Finn when they stopped sharing photos of each other and were not seen in public together for a few months. Paige responded to the rumors with a playful remark on social media, saying, “I’m not being funny, if I get one more message going ‘Where’s Finn? Where’s Finn?’ I hope he’s still in the cage in the living room where I left him. Or at least he f****** should be.”
As the news of their reported split circulates, fans of Paige and Finn are expressing their support on social media, with many sending messages of encouragement to both parties during this challenging time. Despite the end of their relationship, fans are hopeful for their individual futures and await updates on their next endeavors.
Love Island fans will continue to follow Paige and Finn’s journeys, both personally and professionally, as they navigate this new chapter in their lives.
