Former Love Island star Tyrique Hyde has been spotted looking cozy with an alleged new flame. It comes just weeks after he confirmed the end of his relationship with Ella Thomas.
The woman has been identified as a Scottish DJ who has remarkable likeness to Thomas. In a candid video, Tyrique can be seen next to the woman as they dance near the DJ booth. The DJ points exaggeratingly at the couple as Tyrique tries to distance himself away as cameras begin to film them. The girl in question is quite in demand as an International DJ. Her Instagram posts show playing shows as far and wide as Melbourne.
Ella, 23, and Tyrique were coupled up on the hit ITV2 show last year. The pair reached the final and were fan favourites. However, it was soon rumoured that they had split up. Tyrique deleted all trace of the Scottish model on Instagram while Ella had just two snaps of the footballer from last November, and one from August. Then of course, the ultimate sign of a breakup - the couple unfollowed each other.
A few weeks ago, Ella confirmed the rumours and explained that she's no longer dating Tyrique. The confirmation came during a Q&A on Snapchat. The content creator spoke about Tyrique in response to a fan interaction on the platform. Ella wrote: "Just to clear things up, we're not together. Didn't speak on it while we were figuring things out & dealing with it privately. Both agree it's for the best & wish him well. All love." She added: "Thanks to everyone that supported us together and individually."
After fans hit up Tyrique for his response he had a more blunt reply: "Tf you want me to say? This is my life g, did you announce your breakup to the world? Just cos people on Love Island usually put out statements don't mean I have to. That's not my portion. Thank you to all my followers who show love. LATAA."
Tyrique and Ella certainly had a journey in the Love Island villa, after being paired by the public on day one. But despite getting on well with Ella, Ty still flirted with a number of different bombshells on the programme. He also caught backlash from fans when he infamously told Ella he did it because he "missed the game." The pair decided to go official before heading to Casa Amor, but that didn't stop Ella from recoupling with Ouzy See. Despite Ty insisting that was the end of their relationship, he and Ella found their way back to each other, going official and saying 'I love you' in in the villa before they came third in the Love Island final.
This leaves Whitney Adebayo, 26, and Lochan Nowacki, 25 as the only Love Islanders left together from the series. Recently, Tyrique took a shady swipe at the pair and unfollowed both stars on Instagram. He proceeded to comment laughing emojis under a post on our Instagram page that applauded Whitney and Lochan for being the only finalists from the tenth series to still be together. Fans viewed this as a savage swipe, indicating that he thinks their relationship won't last much longer.
