LOVE Island’s Millie Court and Liam Reardon have SPLIT for the second time, pals have revealed.
The couple fell in love on the seventh series of the ITV2 reality show in 2021, and went on to be crowned the winners.
However, they split in July 2022 before reuniting a year later , much to fans’ delight.
The couple – who host the Liam and Millie podcast together – have maintained a long-distance relationship ever since, with Liam living in Wales while Millie is based in Essex.
But sadly, it seems the distance has become too hard to navigate and the couple has split for a second time.
A source close to the couple exclusively told The Sun Online: “Millie and Liam have tried so hard to make their relationship work.
“But unfortunately, the distance was just difficult and they have sadly ended their relationship for a second time.
“Obviously, they’ve worked things out before, so friends are hoping this might just be a blip as it’s all still very fresh.
“But right now they are spending time apart. Everyone who loves them hopes they can work it out.”
The Sun has approached reps for the pair and Millie’s spokesperson declined to comment.
At the time of their first split, Millie said on Instagram: “Hi everyone, to avoid any speculation Liam and I wanted to share with you that we have separated.
“It’s been a tough decision and I am gutted but it’s ultimately what is best for us right now. Thank you to every single one of you for supporting our relationship.
“Nothing will ever take away from the amazing experience we shared in Love Island and the past year and I wish Liam all the best in everything he does.
“We’re both ready for new chapters and I’m excited for what’s next. Love, Millie.”
Less than a year later, in May 2023, the couple confirmed they were back together , having rekindled their romance a few months previously.
Opening up on the split, Welshman Liam explained: “We want to keep it a bit more private to a certain extent.
“We spend our lives on social media, it’s hard not to share the relationship.
“But after Love Island we plastered as much of each other out there as possible, and I kind of felt like we had to show people we were really happy all the time even if we were unhappy.
“Now we’re just loving life.”
But addressing the fact they didn’t live together, Liam said: “We don’t live together no, but in the future if things continue to go as lovely as they are…”
