Love Island’s Whitney Adebayo sparks concern with new video after she revealed ex Lochan dumped her
WHITNEY Adebayo has sparked concern with a new video online after being dumped by Lochan.
The Love Island star, 27, confirmed they had split earlier this month after two years of dating.
She previously let slip it was Lochan who decided to end the relationship with a heartbreaking post.
Whitney said: “It was the day he chose to stop choosing us, the day he chose to stop choosing me.
“And just like that, I found myself alone.”
But now the star has sparked concern as she took to Instagram with an honest post about how she is questioning every aspect of her life following the split.
Alongside footage from happier times, she said: “If I’m being honest I don’t even know who she is.
“How I look, how I feel, what I do, even who I am. I thought this was the path to becoming the woman I’ve always dreamt of being, unshakeable.
“But recently she feels like an idea I’ll never quite reach.
“The truth is, I miss the girl that I used to be, she believed in herself without needing permission. She believed she had this light in her that couldn’t be dimmed and the laugh that would lighten anyone’s mood.”
She continued: “I don’t want to conform to a life of what ifs and I know if I gave in, if I gave up who I was, just to be accepted, she would be so disappointed.”
“Some days I find myself wondering where her spark went, wondering if it’s gone for good.”
She captioned the clip: “Episode 5 – Missing You.”
Fans flooded Whitney with supportive comments, with one writing: “This chapter is called healing.”
A second replied: “You are healing and you are that girl! She’ll resurface again and her light won’t be dimmed.”
“Much love to you for this level of vulnerability and openness,” said a third.
While a fourth commented: “God don’t make mistakes, you are more than enough and you got this.”
Love Island - Whitney and Lochan Love Story
THE duo found love on-screen in 2023 - yet what's the lowdown?
Beauty mogul Whitney entered the villa on Day 3, and experienced highs and lows on the hit ITV2 reality show, stealing contestant Andre Furtado, 22, the same day she entered into the villa.
She coupled up with Mehdi Edno, 26, on Day 5, and in a surprising turn of events, she took personal trainer Zachariah Noble, 26, out on a date but their chemistry would soon fizzle out.
Her luck changed in Week 5, when Windsor-born Lochan entered Cara Amor on Day 26. On Day 31, Whitney chose to couple up with Lochan.
The show favourites lost out on the winning spot to Jess Harding, 23, and Sammy Root, 23 on the show finale on Day 58.
She recently told how the pair were planning to move in together.
Yet in July 2024, eyebrows were raised after the pair unfollowed each other on social media then attended an event together – leaving some fans calling out a “publicity stunt.”
