Love Island Australia star Lexy Thornberry has confirmed she has split from boyfriend Chris Graudins after just four months together. The 20-year-old Gold Coast bartender said the couple decided to go their separate ways due to 'too much pressure' on their fledgling romance.
'Yes, me and Chris have broken up sadly,' she told Daily Mail Australia on Tuesday. 'Chris and I have been put under a lot of pressure our entire relationship with constant external negativity. We felt it was in our best interest to go our separate ways and set out and accomplish some personal goals first and see what the future holds for us.'
The exes are no longer tagged in each other's photos on Instagram, suggesting they have blocked each other on the platform. They were last spotted together on Anzac Day on April 25.
Lexy and Chris, 25, who were co-stars on Love Island Australia last year, sparked dating rumours in early January when fans noticed them flirting on Instagram. They confirmed their romance on February 1 when they were pictured holding hands in Sydney.
Before dating Lexy, Chris was in a relationship with Zoe Clish, with whom he had coupled up on the show. Fans were attached to Chris and Zoe as a couple, and were not thrilled when he started dating Lexy.
