💔 Split

Nicole + Ciaran Davies

Ciaran and Nicole have split as of early December 2024, just months after finishing as runners-up on Love Island UK. The breakup was amicable—Nicole explained in a podcast interview that their busy work schedules and the adjustment to real life outside the villa made it difficult to sustain their relationship, but they parted on good terms and remain friends; both have since moved on to new relationships.
