Love Island winners Millie Court and Liam Reardon have ended their relationship for the second time, with a source citing the challenge of distance as a key factor. The couple, who met on the seventh series of the ITV2 dating show in 2021, briefly parted ways in summer 2022 before reuniting the following year.
A friend revealed that the pair 'tried so hard to make it work' but ultimately decided to separate once more. 'Obviously, they've worked things out before, so friends are hoping this might just be a blip as it's all still very fresh,' a source told The Sun. 'But right now they are spending time apart. Everyone who loves them hopes they can work it out.'
Millie has since returned to social media, posting a supportive comment on fellow Love Island star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu's Instagram, calling her Vogue Latino America shoot 'Incredible!!!!' The reality star appears to be staying positive despite the split.
The pair first connected in the Love Island villa, where they overcame Liam's brief Casa Amor hesitation to win the series. After leaving the show, they moved in together and seemed strong, with Liam recently hinting at wanting to start a family, writing 'I want one' on a video of himself playing with a child.
During their initial break-up in 2022, Millie announced the separation in a statement, saying it was 'a tough decision' but 'ultimately what is best for us right now.' The couple later reconciled, but distance has reportedly taken its toll once again.
