And Chloe went public with her new man, Ruben Moreira, in February, as she moved on from her former romance with Toby Aromolaran, 25.
Now, in a sweet Instagram story where she went social media official with her beau, the star wished him happy birthday, while enjoying their holiday in the Maldives.
Pouting next to her man while wearing a white top and pink earrings, she said: 'Happy bday baby hunny princess ruben_moreira1 long live the queen x.
'Also yes I don't tan cba being on holiday with u is annoying.'
Chloe's new man Ruben could be seen standing next to her looking dapper in a white top, while on holiday.
A source previously told us about their budding relationship, saying: "It's early days for Chloe and Ruben but they have known each other a while through Liam Reardon and they get on like a house on fire.
"They holidayed in Australia together in a big group at the start of the year and romance blossomed there.
"Now they are on holiday together in Dubai, so it's heating up.
"Chloe thinks he's gorgeous and she knows he's a decent bloke as she trusts Liam wouldn't be mates with someone who wasn't a good guy."
Chloe Burrows breaks her silence on new boyfriend as she opens up on relationship for the first time
Chloe met Ruben through fellow Love Island 2021 co-star Liam Reardon, as the two men are friends.
Liam dates Chloe's BFF and co-star Millie Court.
Millie and Liam proved the eventual winners of their reality TV series.
Yet they have faced relationship struggles of their own, splitting up before reuniting for their next chapter together.
Meanwhile, Chloe and her man have already jetted off on holiday together, and lapped up the sun in Dubai in February.
Chloe, who shot to fame on Love Island's 2021 season, posted a picture on her Instagram Stories of her and Ruben at the time.
Fans immediately took this to mean she was "soft launching" her new relationship.
Taking to Reddit, one wrote: "Love that for her. That's literally so fun for the four of them as friends, hope it all works out!!"
While another said: "So happy for Chloe."
Chloe took to her Instagram Stories to capture their cute date night at Shimmers eatery, with a plate of fresh fish and salad seen on the table.
Another snap saw her posing for a sultry selfie with the caption: "Get me to bed with some Brooklyn Nine Nine now."

New Jackie 'O' Henderson reality TV show Stranded on Honeymoon Island cast is finally revealed - after release date was pushed back by six months
Channel Seven has announced the cast of romantic hopefuls who are set to star in their new dating show Stranded On Honeymoon Island. Dropping on June 23, the long-awaited show follows 12 unlucky-in-love singles who are stranded on a remote island with no hope of escape for 21 days. Narrated by high-profile radio host Jackie 'O' Henderson, the format is based on a hit Danish concept and adapted locally by Endemol Shine Australia. Each of the couples are matched after a speed dating meet-up and then dumped in a tropical location, still in their wedding attire, with no access to phones or the outside. And once on Honeymoon Island, the couples have to grapple with everyday dating dramas as they strive to survive primitive conditions. 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. Featured in the cast are 30-year-old Queensland TikToker and comedian Amy who is paired with TV host Mike, 38, from NSW. An early trailer revealed sparks fly between Amy and her match - for the wrong reasons. The pair's strong personalities clash from the outset, with Amy unwilling to follow and Mike used to leading. Also starring in the series is Brie from Victoria. Trained as a singer and dancer, the 29-year-old has been matched with Byron, 34, an electrician from Queensland who has been single for two years. Emily, 29, an executive from Victoria, who has been single for seven years has been paired with business analyst Tom, 30, from the ACT. Meanwhile, career coach Dani, 35, is hoping romance will blossom with fellow Queenslander, performer and music producer Emanuel, 35. Flight attendant Georgia, 35, has found herself on Honeymoon Island with match Chad, 47, an anthroplasty expert, who shares her home state of Victoria. Rounding out the cast are two contestants from NSW - Jess, 38, a relationship coach and her match, personal trainer Sam, 31. It comes after the series was plagued by controversy behind the scenes, with the series' rollout delayed for more than six months. Originally slated to air in late 2024, the show was quietly shelved by Seven, leaving cast members in the dark about its future. As previously reported by Daily Mail Australia, contestants were furious over the prolonged silence from the network, with one anonymous bride revealing: 'We've had enough. We've all put our lives on hold for this, and now we're just sitting here waiting for a decision. 'Some of us have moved on and started new relationships – one of the guys even proposed to his girlfriend in real life!' she continued, adding it felt 'insulting' to still be under contract without clarity. 'We were told to keep quiet, no relationships, no social media posts. We're basically living like prisoners, while Seven plays games with us.' Others echoed similar frustrations, claiming they were led to believe the show would fast-track their careers as influencers, only to return to regular jobs after months of limbo. 'It's just been a rollercoaster of uncertainty,' one insider shared. 'They told us one thing, then pushed the show back again and again. Nobody even knows when the series will air, and the cast hasn't been told a thing,' they added. 'All we've been given is silence and broken promises.' Insiders say the network was hopeful the show could rival Married At First Sight and The Block in ratings, even splashing out big money to secure Jackie O in hopes of pulling viewers.

Triple J kicks off new Aussie-themed poll - after Chappell Roan and Doja Cat's Hottest 100 wins copped public backlash
Triple J has extended an almighty olive branch to the Australian public, after back-to-back Hottest 100 wins by American artists sounded the death knell of the song contest's popularity. On Tuesday, June 17 voting officially opened for the new poll, 'The Hottest 100 of Australian songs'. The new countdown will take place on July 26 and has strict rules in place to ensure it honours Triple J's 50 years on-air milestone, and the 'support local' ethos of the national song contest which began in 1989. Eligible songs must have been released by January 19, 2025 and they must feature at least 50 per cent Australian artists. For example 'Rhyme Dust' by Dom Dolla and MK and 'Fancy' by Iggy Azalea and Charli XCX pass, but no song by Split Enz will be considered. 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. 'Because they are from New Zealand,' the voting page explains. Triple J's presenters have already weighed in with their favourites on social media, and so have a raft of Aussie artists. 'Hey guys Jimmy Barnes here,' the iconic rock singer said in a video posted on the voting page. 'I'm voting for Jett - Are You Gonna Be My Girl? Just because it's such a great recording, they are such a tight band, and he is such an awesome singer. I just thought that song jumped out of the radio when I heard it and it still does 'til this day,' Barnes said. Are You Gonna Be My Girl? won the hottest 100 in the 2003 year of its release. Missy Higgins will also be putting a 2003 track in her No.1 spot - London Still by The Waifs. 'I did so much touring with the Waifs back in the day when I was a wee little 17-year-old,' Higgins said. 'That band just took me on the road. They took me under their wing. I was such fan, it was like a dream come true. 'This song encapsulates that experience and that memory for me. It's such an Australian rite of passage going away to London for a bit and coming back.' Tash Sultana will be voting for Miracle by Matt Corby. 'Matt is a mate of mine. We've done a lot of work together and I think he is an underrated musician - who is so talented and works with so many people - that I don't really think that he's gotten the flowers that he deserves.' While some of our famous musicians are emphatically backing their colleagues and mentors, others are shamelessly campaigning for the win. The Veronicas' official account commented '*violins start playing*,' on the post in reference to their self-dubbed 'national anthem' Untouched. 'Literally come on,' Aussie pop group Cub Sport commented, as they encouraged people to vote for Mess Me Up. In 1994, Triple J rebooted the Hottest 100 concept so that only songs released in the previous calendar year are eligible. This format has seen Flume and Powderfinger top the charts on multiple occasions, with Angus & Julia Stone, Vance Joy, Chet Faker, The Wiggles, Ocean Alley, and Spiderbait also claiming the title in the contest's long history. Meanwhile, international acts like Oasis, Billie Eilish, The Cranberries, Gotye, and Kendrick Lamar have also taken out the top honour. Voting for the Hottest 100 of Australian Songs will close on July 17 at 5pm AEST. Notably, no tracks recorded for triple J's long-running Like A Version cover series will be considered. Listeners were highly critical of the Triple J presenters' top picks, as passionate music fans flooded the comments However, if an Australian song has been significantly re-record or remixed, it can be eligible for two separate entries. One particularly passionate Flume fan kept the caps lock on as he waded into the comments with this rallying cry: 'INNERBLOOM AND DON'T SPLIT THE VOTE WITH THE REMIX FFS.' As thousands of suggestions flooded the comments section, younger listeners encouraged people to get their 'parents and grandparents' to vote to ensure no Aussie 'classics' are missed. The announcement comes after US singer Chappell Roan claimed the win in 2025 with her Sapphic earworm 'Good Luck Babe!'. Listeners were less than impressed with overseas acts ruling the chart for the second year in a row, after Doja Cat's 'Paint The Town Red' won in 2024. Just 29 songs of the top 100 came from Australian acts in 2025, with Melbourne DJ Dom Dolla charting highly and Amyl and the Sniffers gaining multiple entries

Farmer Wants A Wife star exposes secret about filming with host Natalie Gruzlewski
Farmer Wants A Wife alum Olivia Benic, 26, who won the affections of Farmer Matt Young in season 13 of the series, has opened up about her experience returning to the show two years after her TV stint. Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle, Olivia revealed her favourite part about appearing in Tuesday night's episode was sitting down and chatting with the show's host Natalie Gruzlewski. 'It was actually nice filming with Nat, because when we were filming previously with Sam [Armytage] and Nat, they're working. They're not talking to us,' she said. She went on to say that fans are given the impression the hosts are close with the participants, but often that isn't the case behind the cameras. 'I think the mirage of them being heavily involved in knowing us has failed, because you actually don't get to chat with them much,' she said. 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. 'So I think when Nat came for the visit to the farm, when we hung out there for the day, it was the most time that we actually got to catch up. So that was nice,' she added. Matt and Olivia welcomed their first child Henry in August last year, shocking fans after keeping the pregnancy tightly under wraps. The reality TV stars shared the unexpected photo to Instagram. It captured them tenderly cradling their newborn and captioned it with some heartfelt words. '286 days of carrying you, eight hours of labour without pain relief, and what has felt like a lifetime of waiting... Our little bubba entered our little family happy and healthy,' they began. 'Thank you to our close friends/family/baggy clothes (haha) for helping us to enjoy this wonderful experience privately and with so much unconditional support.' They added they would now be taking a break from social media to 'settle into parenthood' and that they would provide more updates when they were ready. In 2023, Farmer Matt sparked backlash on the show after he chose Olivia over his other love interest Annabelle. Irate viewers were vocal in their opinion the latter suited him better - This meant a few feathers were ruffled when he finally declared his love for Olivia and she reciprocated. During one episode, before the finale, drama famously ensued at Farmer Matt's dinner table as love rivals Annabelle and Olivia argued over 'alone time' with the hunk. Annabelle became jealous when Olivia told her she and Matt often enjoyed a cup of tea together once she went to bed back at the farm. However, Matt and Olivia previously revealed they were still going strong by sharing a picture of them together on the farm with a working dog and the sweet caption: 'Forever smiling with you (and Neville).'
