Love Island winners Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies have reportedly split just three weeks after leaving All Stars.
The pair were crowned champions and received the £50K cash prize after a tense public vote, beating out Millie Court and Zac Woodworth who finished in second place
But it has now been reported that they have decided to call it quits.
A source told The Sun: ‘Samie and Ciaran have decided that, for now at least, they’re better off staying friends rather than pursuing things romantically.
‘They made that decision in the week.
‘Neither of them have a bad word to say about each other.’

The Daily Mail has contacted their representatives for comment.
It comes after Samie admitted she ‘ignored Lucinda for five days’ amid ‘bullying claims’ as she confessed she walked out in unaired scenes.
The third series of the spin-off show wrapped earlier this month, with host Maya Jama announcing Samie and Ciaran as the winning couple.
The series sparked thousands of Ofcom ‘bullying’ complaints over how Lucinda was being treated in the villa, namely over the fallout with Belle Hassan, Samie and Jessy Potts.
But now, in an interview with Olivia Attwood on her podcast, Samie has confessed that she actively chose to ignore the TikTok star around the villa.
She said on Olivia’s House: ‘There was a time, literally, where I was ignoring her [Lucinda] for five days and we were sitting next to each other in the dressing room and literally just not even speaking.’
Samie then confessed that she felt it was ‘more energy’ to ignore her, so she eventually decided to be civil.
Later in the podcast, Samie also revealed that she got annoyed during Movie Night, walked away from the tables, and needed to take a moment to calm down inside the villa, away from her fellow Islanders.

During movie night, Samie clashed with Lucinda as she shouted at the TikToker when she attempted to defend her reason to pie her earlier in the season.
Samie could be seen getting louder and more visibly annoyed with Lucinda to the point where the other girls told her to ‘dead it’.
But she has now revealed that the tension on Movie Night escalated further during unaired scenes as she told Olivia: ‘I did walk out during movie night just to calm down. That was very hard’.
Now that all contestant have returned to the UK, Lucinda has admitted that she agrees with the claims that was bullied by the other girls in the villa.
Lucinda, earlier in the week, revealed to Paul C Brunson on his latest We Need To Talk podcast episode, the extent to which she felt isolated by the girls in the villa.
She revealed that even if her makeup bag moved ‘two inches’ onto Samie’s desk, she immediately told her to move her belongings.
Lucinda said: ‘I got used to it [being ignored by Samie] at points. So me and Samie were getting ready next to each other, so our dressing tables were next to each other and even to the point where my makeup bag was maybe two inches to her side, she would go ”Lucinda could you please move that”.
She then clarified this was the only time they would speak.
The two fell out when Lucinda picked Ciaran to couple up with after she arrived as a bombshell.
Tensions only worsened during a game of Snog, Marry, Pie, when Lucinda chose to pie Samie.
On one episode, Lucinda stormed off in tears after a huge showdown and host Maya had to step in to comfort her, sparking over 8,500 complaints in one night.
Fellow islander Whitney asked Lucinda whether she felt she was being bullied, to which she replied that she hadn’t been.
When asked by Paul if she now thinks she had been bullied in the villa, Lucinda said: ‘In that moment when I was talking to Maya, I genuinely had no one to look to at all, apart from Sean.
‘There wasn’t one single person in there that I felt like was my friend. It was literally just Sean.
‘And even that night I went to sleep. I didn’t want to talk to anyone. I woke up the next morning. I looked around the bedroom and I was like, there’s no one to even talk to. This isn’t fun.
‘And I remember I went outside and I just cried my eyes out on my own. But it wasn’t shown because it was just outside the front door.’
Lucinda said while production was ‘amazing’ at looking after her welfare, she felt she didn’t even want to go into the girls’ dressing room because she felt ‘no one liked me’.
She added that it hurts now to watch the clip of Belle imitating her walk.
Lucinda said: ‘They would never do that to my face, and they never really did. So, you know, they did it when I was walking away.
‘Obviously, I have seen that clip online and it’s not nice whatsoever. I think that was where the line was. It was just getting completely out of control.
‘I don’t know what was seen and what wasn’t, but there were times where I spent a lot of time on my own.’
