Tom Clare has confirmed he and Samie Elishi have gone their separate ways and broken up.
The Love Island star wrote on his Instagram story: "I didn't think I'd be writing this but me and Samie have gone our separate ways…
"We are still on good terms and I have nothing but love and respect for her. I'm gutted it's come to an end but I truly wish Samie the best."
It comes after reports that Tom and Samie decided to call it quits on their relationship as it is believed they have struggled with the long distance with Samie being based in London and Tom living in Macclesfield.
Before Tom confirmed the news, a source previously told The Sun: "Samie and Tom have sadly decided to call it a day.
"There is a lot of love and respect there but it just wasn’t going anywhere.
“The distance between them was too much and they are both really focused on their careers post Love Island.”
Since the reports, Tom has already been busy working on his career after announcing his deal with eBay.
And it seems he has the support of his bestie Casey as the pair were seen working on a new project together.
"Shooting with @ebay-uk today," Casey, 26, wrote over the clip on his Instagram.
Meanwhile, Tom and Samie appeared on Chloe Burrows' new YouTube show together recently to discuss their time on Love Island.
“Did you go on Love Island for love or did you go on for exposure?” Chloe asked the former couple, to which Samie said: "I’m going to be honest, mine was the second one. I didn’t expect to meet anyone.”
And Tom shared: "He said: “I think mine was I really wanted to meet someone, but in the first two weeks I was like, ‘I’m stuffed here, there’s no one for me.’”
Samie then questioned whether anyone really goes on the show to find love, but Tom hit back by saying: “It’s f***ing Love Island!”
Tom and Samie met on the most recent series of Love Island in the South African villa and landed in third place in the final.
Samie entered the villa as a bombshell and was first coupled up with winner Kai Fagan before she recoupled with Tom.
