In a Q&A with fans on Instagram last night, she revealed she can't say much for "legal reasons" but insisted she's never been so happy to be single.
Having 'rediscovered' herself, Belle appeared to confirm a return to Love Island in the New Year.
When a fan asked if she was doing All Stars, she replied with a selfie and a large side eye emoji suggesting wheels are in motion behind the scenes.
Earlier this year, the makeup artist, 27, told fans she'd experienced six weeks of alleged emotional abuse that left her feeling at an all time low.
A source told The Sun at the time: " Belle is no longer with Luke.
"She's back in London while she processes everything that has happened recently and is focusing on her wellbeing after the split."
When a fan asked how she was, Belle wrote: "I'm probably at the lowest point I've been in my life and I genuinely don't know how to pull myself out.
"I can't even pull myself out of bed, and have been like this for about 6 weeks, when I tell you emotional abuse is no joke I mean it!
"I wouldn't wish what has been done to me on my worst enemy.
"For the first time in my life I've been faced with a situation I have no idea how to deal with and I know usually it's me on here giving all the advice but I don't wanna sit here and lie and say I know I'll be fine because this time I'm not sure if I will be.
"I can promise I am trying my best to get better but this one's gna be a process."
The pair became an item late in 2023 just as Belle, who previously dated Anton Danyluk, was asked to sign up for Love Island All Stars.
She called Luke a "gift from the universe" and said: 'He ticks every checklist I have, he's completely my type to a T, personality, looks everything."
Londoner Belle relocated to Edinburgh to live with the sports star and opened a beauty salon in the city.
Luke previously praised Belle for supporting his career and shared details of winning her hardman actor dad Tamer's approval.
He told us: 'She's starting to realise how sore you are after the games!
'She's got a big job keeping me fed but she's doing a good job so far.

'She loves rugby now and her dad loves it as well, and her mum, so they're big supporters.
'I get along well with her dad. He's a tough man, like!
'One of the first times I met him he wanted to make sure I could protect his daughter so it turned into a little sparring match at Christmas. I passed the test!
'You wouldn't hear the end of that if I'd knocked him out!"

Moment hammer-wielding robbers try to raid posh Chelsea pawnbrokers beloved by celebrities - only to be foiled by smokescreen
A pair of hammer-wielding robbers tried to raid a posh pawnbrokers in London - only to be thwarted by a smokescreen. Dramatic footage shows the thieves, who were both masked by their motorcycle helmets, enter Chelsea's Prestige Pawnbrokers - beloved by celebrities including Janet Jackson. The robbers appear to have smashed a large window to enter the shop, only to be foiled by a thick plume of smoke and startled by a blaring alarm system. A woman filming from a window above shouts 'they're robbing' as the two enter the store, only to stumble back out again as the smoke thickens. They then jump on their motorcycle, which was parked just outside, and flee the scene seemingly empty handed. Three men then appear to investigate and try to stop the alarm and intense smoke system. The shop, also called Posh Pawn, is famous for its luxury items and has seen famous faces visit - including Janet Jackson. The American singer, 55, was seen leaving Prestige Pawnbrokers in 2022 and is said to have become something of a regular there. Janet was seen leaving clutching a blue jewellery box under a sign which read 'Posh Pawn' and got into a Range Rover parked outside - and apparently it wasn't her first visit. A source told the Daily Mail at the time: 'She is a big fan of the shop and the staff look forward to welcoming her. She is always very chatty. 'She's been in five or six times and loves looking around. She is a valued client.' An onlooker in the store said: 'Janet was in Prestige Pawnbrokers for quite some time, she was looking at the jewellery for a while and seemed quite interested in a Hermes bag. 'She was clutching a blue jewellery box, but it wasn't clear what it contained. She seemed to be very friendly and was chatting away with the staff asking questions about various items on display.' Prestige Pawnbrokers also had its own Channel 4 hit documentary series, which uncovered the world of high-end pawnbroking.

Jeremy Clarkson's 'weird' rule that caused controversy at his Farmer's Dog pub is finally solved
The 'weird' rule at 's Farmer's Dog pub that saw staff repeatedly let down punters has finally been solved after months of backlash. The former Top Gear presenter opened a country pub alongside his Oxfordshire farm Diddly Squat, last year and announced he would only be using products and ingredients that were 100 percent British. It left commonplace items including Coca Cola, coffee and even ketchup firmly off the menu at the Cotswolds pub. Although many were supportive of the rule, so many punters would ask for ketchup to accompany their meals that staff resorted to putting up signs informing customers it was not available. But now the problem has finally been solved, thanks to Isle of Wight firm Condimaniac. The company decided to take on the challenge and has now successfully created an all-British ketchup, made from Isle of Wight tomato passata, apple cider vinegar from Hanmpshire, Essex salt and British sugar and onions. The firm has been documenting its progress on the product online, and said it was especially difficult to develop as no UK firm produces tomato puree. After successfully launching the condiment, co-founder of the company Kier Kemp said: 'Making a 100 per cent British ketchup after Jeremy Clarkson alerted us to the fact there wasn't one was very hard. When the former Top Gear presenter first opened the doors to his watering hole he was on a mission to only sell 100 percent British-grown products 'We had to put on our big boy pants.' In a blog post describing the process of making the ketchup, he admitted it was a 'massive faff' and said staff had 'had to go to great lengths to get the right consistency and flavour.' Co-founders Mr Kemp and Jennifer Dreier delivered an initial batch to the Farmer's Dog in June for staff to sample. Just before they met with manager, Annie, customers flocked to try the sauce, with one stating it was 'amazing'. 'I am not having Heinz again that is for sure,' another said. Another staff member at the Farmers Puppy, a 'small but mighty version of the pub in a tent', gave them kudos for their product. Condimaniac initially made 1,700 bottles of the product, with many destined to be sold at the pub's butcher and bottle shop and at Clarkson's farm. The product, costing £7.95, has already sold out on the firm's website. Reflecting on how impressed he was with the pub, Mr Kemp said: 'It is not just a gimmick for them they do really live and breathe this 100 percent British thing.' He later dubbed them the 'best wholesale clients I have ever dealt with', adding: 'Everyone I have met is super lovely.' 'I am glad that I can report they are actually nice people. It is not always like that.' A source close to Clarkson's pub told the Sun: 'Jeremy and the team support the British food and farming industry. 'So he made no apologies for not selling ketchup, no matter how many times staff had to let customers down. 'But the pub's always said that if a British company could do it with all-British ingredients, it would get on the menu.

"We had an interview for it, so it's like an hour long interview, and then like an hour long dance session just to see where you're at.' George did however say he has yet to meet all the others and find out which professional he would be confirmed to be dancing with. Lauren, who stepped in to dance with JB Gill last year and made it all the way to the final after Amy Dowden was forced to withdraw, and has partnered with Krishnan Guru-Murthy in the past, was among the pros celebrating George's announcement, writing, 'Yessss,' on the Instagram reveal post.
