Kaz Crossley and Montel McKenzie, 27, got together when they appeared on Love Island: All Stars at the beginning of the year.
However, over the last few months fans have been convinced they have split up - and now it's been confirmed.
On last night's Love Island After Sun host Maya Jama, 30, grilled Kaz on the status of her relationship with Montel.
The stunning star appeared on the Love Island Sunday night spin-off show alongside her villa BFF, Gabby Allen, 33.
When asked about Montel, Kaz replied that they were just "very good friends."
Not missing a beat Gabby quickly chimed in: "With benefits!"
The three women all began to laugh as Kaz cheekily replied: "Well a girl's got needs!"
Kaz's break-up confession comes after months of fans wondering what was going on with her and Montel.
The pair last posted together in March where they teased they they were still together.
The clip showed them looking close as they headed in for a kiss, before pulling away.
'There is NO way' say Love Island fans as couple reveal if they've split after weeks of rumours
But now, after six months of dating, the villa couple have called it quits - although they are still on VERY friendly terms.
Both Kaz and Montel didn't have the easiest time in the All Stars Villa in January.
They got together just a week before they were brutally dumped from the island.
After they were axed, they vowed to give their romance a go on the outside world.

ITV This Morning's Fern Britton 'sacked from show' after showing true feelings
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info TV veteran Fern Britton has reflected on being axed from a programme following her frank critique to one of the producers. She revealed the precarious nature of the television industry in light of ITV's recent decision to cut roughly half of its 440 daytime production staff, conceding that it's "not an easy industry". In an interview with the i newspaper's 7 Days magazine, Fern recounted an incident where she called out a producer's poor show guidance. "I worked with a producer on a show years ago and she was giving me instructions that were utter nonsense," she said. "I went, 'This is rubbish. This isn't any kind of research. This is all wrong.' Within a week I was off that show." During her time as host of After Five in the mid-1990s, Fern had her first child and was dismissed shortly after when post-natal depression led her to weep during a sensitive interview with a terminally ill cancer patient, reports the Manchester Evening News. Circa 2001, while co-hosting This Morning with John Leslie, Fern shared how she was pressured to return swiftly postpartum, facing an ultimatum: "There's no job for you." Fern ultimately parted ways with the beloved show amid reputed conflicts with Phillip Schofield, who stepped in for Leslie. Refuting claims that she left her television show due to a pay dispute, she clarified: "There was also a persistent rumour that I left because Phillip was being paid more than me and I always say to people 'Why would I leave a show to go to nothing if I was worried about money?'". She has kept the details of her final breaking point with Schofield private, but in an interview with Ray D'Arcy, she hinted at the severity of the situation: "Something happened and I thought, 'That's it really' and I walked away and resigned. I was treated pretty poorly, actually. And after a while I just thought, 'Sod it'." Her experience on Strictly Come Dancing at the age of 55 brought further challenges, as she claimed her dance partner Artem Chigvintsev was physically rough and unsupportive. Reflecting on a particularly difficult moment, she shared: "I remember once I burst into tears and sobbed that I wasn't enjoying it, Artem's response was, 'You're rubbish, that's why you're not enjoying it,' so I picked myself up and ploughed on." She acknowledged the harsh realities of the television industry, noting it can be even tougher for those working behind the scenes: "It's harder for the people behind [the cameras] because they're having to deal with the budgets and with `upstairs'. Presenters, you've got to take it on the chin and you're lucky to be there, really". At the same time, she acknowledges the rationale behind the significant job cuts ordered by management: "There are times when everything does need a reset. So maybe that's it. Maybe they're planning a reset." Now 67, Fern enjoys a contented life in Cornwall, having carved out a successful career as a best-selling author, separate from her television endeavours. Yet, she still makes occasional TV appearances and is set to return to ITV with a new six-part series titled 'Fern Britton: Inside the Vet's'. Speaking about the upcoming show, she expressed her excitement: "Every pet has their story and every owner has theirs, so I'm absolutely thrilled to be part of this new series for ITV. Animals have always been a huge love of mine and getting a behind-the-scenes look at the incredible work the veterinary team does every day has been a privilege." She added: "Handing your pet over to the vet for any procedure is a worrying time. This series gives us a glimpse of what happens beyond the consulting room door, and is full of heart, fascinating stories, and, of course, plenty of adorable animals-I can't wait to share it with viewers!".

This Morning fans 'change the channel' after 'smug' Jameela Jamil interview - as she takes shock swipe at Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard live on show
This Morning fans confessed they were going to 'change the channel' as Jameela Jamil made a catty comment about Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard live on Monday's episode of the ITV show. The 39-year-old presenter caught up with Cat, 48, and Ben, 50, to chat about her recent dream role in new Disney film Elio as the voice of Ambassador Questa in the science fiction film. The star was left over the moon when her pal Will Best, 40 - who she presented T4 with between 2011 and 2012 - made a surprise appearance on the sofa. Jameela said: 'I think Will is, in my opinion, and I think everyone is the best, but I think you're the most talented broadcaster in the country. 'That's a crazy thing to say in front of two other broadcasters... 'But maybe the next generation of talented broadcasters.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She told him: 'You try to bat it off every time!' Cat and Ben kept a dignified silence, ever the professionals, and opted not to respond to the dig. Earlier on in the interview Ben pointed out how successful her career has been over the years, since she shot to fame in 2009. He said: 'Being proud of how far you've come as well, and the journey you're on, which is seemingly getting higher and higher.' Jameela said: 'I didn't sleep with anyone. I would have slept my way down the industry. 'I got very lucky, right place at right time, and I've never been deterred by the fact I'm completely under qualified and under prepared for everything. That makes it funnier 'I refer to myself sometimes as a failure pervert because I'm obsessed with how wrong it could go, it makes for a funnier story for friends. 'No one likes a story of success.' She continued: 'We like failure. I run towards it, that's where the adventure, the good juice is of life. Jameela said: 'I think Will is, in my opinion, and I think everyone is the best, but I think you're the most talented broadcaster in the country' 'Everything I've done, I've thought was going to be a colossal disaster, really only 50 per cent of it was.' Many rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts on the chat. '#thismorning Jameela hates smug people..... Obviously doesn't have mirrors in her house then.' Another questioned: 'Is anybody enjoying this interview?!' To which someone replied: 'Just Jameela I think..' 'Oh please #ThisMorning.' Meanwhile others have rushed to Instagram to share their congratulations after landing her role in the new film. One said: 'Congratulations Jameela on the movie premiere!' 'I've loved you for years now and thought it would eventually go away but I jus love you more and more.' 'Proud of you.' 'So happy for you.' Elsewhere on Monday, Olivia Attwood announced that she would be joining This Morning as a presenter in the summer. The reality star, who joined ITV's Loose Women panel in 2023, appeared on This Morning on Monday to chat about her latest series of her documentary Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection. And at the end of the chat, the trio touched upon her exciting new venture. Olivia said: 'I will be joining you guys on the hosting team on the other side of the couch 'It's a huge honour, I've grown up watching this show and having done Loose Women, this feels very natural.'
