The couple met on this year's series of Love Island: All Stars in January and had been plagued by showmance speculation since they came out of the villa.

'It's been a really tough decision, but one made with a lot of love and respect for one another. 'He's an incredible person and I'll always cherish the memories we made both in an out of the villa.

Love always, EkinSu Xx'. Following Ekin-Su's announcement, Curtis took to his Instagram story to confirm the split, writing: 'Just a quick note to say thank you so much for all the kind messages, it really does mean the world. 'It's true, Ekin and I have decided to go our separate ways. Breakups are never easy, but i'll always be grateful for the laughs, the adventures, and the memories (especially the dance routines). 'I'll be keeping busy with work, boxing, dancing, and working with the team on FINT. Lots of love, Curtis x' Ekin's post comes just days after she shared a gushing declaration of love for her boyfriend over on Instagram. Commenting on one of Curtis' most recent posts amid the launch of his boxing career she penned: 'I just want you to know how incredibly proud I am of you. 'Watching you train so hard and give it your all in that match was amazing…. you were strong, focused, and honestly just unstoppable. Win or lose you're a champion in my eyes. I love you!'

Ekin's post comes just days after she shared a gushing declaration of love for her boyfriend over on Instagram View this post on Instagram A post shared by Misfits Boxing (@misfitsboxing) The unlikely couple shocked fans after making their relationship official while in the villa back in February and from the get go they were plagued with rumours their relationship was fake. Curtis hit back at the showmance rumours just over a week ago after appearing on the podcast Not My Bagg. Host Joe Baggs asked the star: 'A lot of people have said online about the showmance rumours, what would you say to these people because obviously you are still together so it's not.' Jokingly Curtis quipped: 'Yeah, it's a full on showmance. You're right guys, 1000%. I think our contract runs out in two months or something and then we'll end up breaking up.' However he later insisted: 'No, it's not a showmance. It's all a load of rubbish and people sometimes say like "Oh, there is a set contract, amount of time that they have to be together". 'I'll tell you right now, I didn't read my contract.' He added: 'We're going good, we're fun and people may think that because Ekin and I are very... I won't lie we're quite dramatic sometimes.' Laughing off recent allegations that they're only in a relationship for the publicity in March, Ekin told The Sun: 'I've got respect for anyone's opinions.' She added: 'I think everyone is entitled to think something and I can understand why they think that, because on the show we are theatrical people and when we come together, it is like a performance. Curtis hit back at the showmance rumours just over a week ago after appearing on the podcast Not My Bagg 'But it's not a showmance, it's real. It just feels right. It feels healthy and I am myself.' Last month the couple hit back at rumours they had split after Curtis shared a video on Ekin-Su's Instagram Story to joke about the reported 'break up' as he revealed they had both simply been away for work. The dancer was seen with a black eye as he chilled on the sofa, before saying: 'Good day of boxing today, and yeah as you can see a little bit of a black eye but it's getting better.' 'Yeah apparently I'm now single as well, yes!' he added, as Ekin-Su could be heard laughing in the background. 'But unfortunately I've got back with my ex straight away,' he continued, as he leaned into Ekin-Su and showed her on camera. 'Apparently spending nearly two or three days away means we've broken up?' Ekin-Su said. Curtis clarified: 'You were working away and I've eh... been working in a dungeon, getting beaten up.' 'Well guys it just proves that exes can get back together,' Ekin-Su joked. 'This is the shortest break up we've ever "had".' Meanwhile it has since been revealed that Ekin was in a secret relationship with Married At First Sight UK 's Georges Berthonneau during her time on Love Island: All Stars. Meanwhile it has since been revealed that Ekin was in a secret relationship with Married At First Sight UK 's Georges Berthonneau during her time on Love Island: All Stars According to Georges, he and Ekin were in love, but she insisted on signing up to the ITV2 show to further her career. They agreed she would go no further than 'kissing' another Islander during her time on the dating series, of which she was the star signing. But Georges, 32, who confirmed the couple's 10-month romance for the first time to MailOnline, claimed Ekin betrayed him on national TV when she became Curtis ' girlfriend, leaving him devastated. In an exclusive interview, Georges told MailOnline he and Ekin had planned a future together, called each other pet names, holidayed in France during the summer and spent Boxing Day exchanging gifts, just 18 days before she entered the South African villa. The personal trainer said he lived a 'nightmare' for the five weeks Ekin was on the dating show as she passionately kissed Curtis, 29, and performed a seductive routine for him wearing sexy red lingerie during the programme's Heart Rate Challenge.

Instead, he went along to Market Place St. Paul's VIP launch party on his own, and looked in great spirits as he was seen sipping beer , pouring pints and playing pool . Meanwhile, in a huge clue in a recent interview with Alem, Ekin failed to mention Curtis once, when asked about love. She was asked: 'Thanks to the program, your love life has also received attention. What does love mean to you?' Ekin responded: 'Love, for me, is a deep bond, trust and being able to be completely yourself with someone... 'Love enables both individual development and growth together. 'I find peaceful, safe and unexpected love valuable. This is exactly the definition of love for me.' While Curtis was out enjoying the food and drink event last night, Ekin told fans she'd enjoyed a gym session - but said she was 'drained.' The star posed in all black gym gear and snapped a mirror selfie, while writing: 'Drained, tired, exhausted, but won't stop me fitting the gym in.'

He raised his fist to the camera and said: "F**king lets go baby!" Ekin then chimed in: "Wooo next round!" In the second round of the four-way clash, Curtis was then defeated by boxer Tempo Arts. Yet fans were quick to appreciate his sporting performance, and one posted on Instagram: "Curtis did well for his first fight on 7 weeks training." A second put: "Entertaining fight from all. Curtis put up a decent fight against this champ." Despite the ITV2 matchmaking show couple's affectionate display, the pair have continually prompted split rumours, with claims first starting to swirl after they spent Easter apart.

French President Emmanuel Macron Pushed in Face by Wife Brigitte in Viral Moment Caught on Video
French President Emmanuel Macron was pushed in the face by his wife, first lady Brigitte, in a clip that's been circulating online The Élysée Palace has downplayed the incident on Sunday, May 25, insisting it "was a moment of closeness" between the couple, Reuters reported, citing an official The incident occurred as the pair, who married in 2007, touched down in Hanoi, Vietnam, at the start of a Southeast Asia tourFrench President Emmanuel Macron was pushed in the face by his wife, first lady Brigitte Macron, in a video that's been circulating online. On Sunday, May 25, the couple arrived in Hanoi, Vietnam, at the start of a Southeast Asia tour, when Emmanuel was pictured exiting the presidential plane, Reuters reported. A hand was then seen reaching out and pushing Emmanuel, 47, in the face, before Brigitte, 72, appeared alongside her husband, wearing a red outfit. The person who pushed the president was also wearing red, as seen in the clip, which was shared by outlets including the BBC. Despite the politician initially appearing a little surprised by the push, it didn't take long for him to compose himself. The couple, who have been married since 2007, then walked down the plane's steps together. The Élysée Palace initially denied the accuracy of the images, per French outlet Le Figaro. However, they have since downplayed the incident. A palace official said, "It was a moment when the president and his wife were relaxing one last time before the start of the trip by having a laugh," per Reuters. "It was a moment of closeness," the official added, according to the news agency. Emmanuel insisted that the couple were "just joking about as we do," per the BBC. "We are bickering and joking with my wife, and a video becomes a sort of geoplanetary catastrophe," Macron told reporters on Monday, according to ABC News. "In the world we live in, we don't have a lot of time to lose" on discussing such topics, he added. An Élysée Palace spokesperson didn't immediately respond when contacted by PEOPLE for comment. The Macrons' marriage had a controversial start, as Brigitte previously told Paris Match in a 2023 interview that entertaining a relationship with her now-husband was initially "crippling" due to their 24-year age gap. She was a 39-year-old drama teacher at a Catholic school in northern France when Emmanuel, then 15, developed feelings for her. "For me," she said — as translated by The Independent — "such a young boy was crippling." While Emmanuel's parents initially suspected he was dating Brigitte's daughter, the truth eventually came out and he was sent off to a boarding school. "Emmanuel had to leave for Paris," Brigitte previously recalled. "I told myself that he would fall in love with someone his [own] age. It didn't happen." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. The two kept in touch, but for a while Brigitte tried to keep some distance between them so as not to "wreck" the lives of her own children, who were close to Emmanuel's age. "That lasted 10 years, the time to put them on the rails. You can imagine what they were hearing," she said. "But I didn't want to miss out on my life." Emmanuel became president of France in 2017, around 10 years after he and Brigitte tied the knot. Read the original article on People
