Love Island couple Luke Mabbott and Demi Jones reportedly split after 'drifting apart' during the coronavirus lockdown.

Love Island couple Luke Mabbott and Demi Jones have reportedly split up after spending three months apart during the coronavirus lockdown.

The pair got together during the ITV2 reality show's first ever winter edition earlier this year and continued as a couple once the show ended, before the lockdown forced them to isolate separately.

According to The Sun, the break has helped them realise that they "are better off as friends".

"They had a good run but they have split for good," a source told the newspaper. "There's been no cheating or drama, they just drifted apart.

"[Luke] is looking forward to lockdown being over and making the most of his new single status."

Love Island had been due to return for a new series next month but ITV took the decision to cancel it entirely due to the severity of the coronavirus pandemic.
