LOVE Island All Stars couple Jessy Potts and Tommy Bradley have split just days after leaving the villa.

The Sun can reveal that the pair decided they were better off as friends after failing to strike up a romantic connection on the outside.

Jessy, 27, came under fire during her time in the villa for “using” Tommy to get to the final.

Co-star Helena Ford slammed Jessy for coupling up with the Herefordshire lad in a bid to secure more “airtime” and branded the connection “fake”.

And now it looks like their romance is well and truly over.

A source said: “Jessy and Tommy were only ever in the early stages of their romance but once they left the villa, they knew it was just a friendship.

“They realised that a romantic connection was never going to work and have decided to nip it in the bud.

“They weren’t really communicating much after the villa and struggled to navigate their early connection after leaving the show.

“They have agreed to stay friends and there are no hard feelings.”

The Sun has reached out to Jessy and Tommy’s reps.

It comes just hours after Tommy, 22, revealed that he’d been on a first date with a mystery brunette this week.

Tommy brazenly spoke about a date night in a new Instagram video, even grilling the lucky lady as to how it went.

He asked her: “I’m here with Michelle, how do you think our date went?

“Alright?”

She then smiled at the camera and said: “Are we on the way to our second date?”

He replied: “Second date?”

Tommy continued: “I’ll be buzzing with that off we go.

“We had a couple of disagreements but …” before she added: “We resolved them quite quickly”.

The TV star and landscape gardener appeared to suggest they had called time on the partnership due to Tommy’s body language in their joint interview.

Adding fuel to the split rumours, Jessy was then spotted partying with another Love Islander in Essex.

Previously, Tommy and Jessy appeared vague when talking about their future post-villa.

It came when Love Island podcast spin off host Indiyah Polack asked them: “What does the future look like for both of you guys now?”

But they both were very undecided and Tommy replied: “I think it’s still early days, isn’t it? So, I don’t want to put any pressure on.”

Echoing this, Jessy then said: “There’s a lot of pressure I think coming out of Love Island and feeling like you have to put on a show for people, which is not what we’re doing.

“We’re just taking it every day as it comes.”

Meanwhile, back in the villa, Tommy appeared uncertain on their bond.

He said while in the South Africa compound: “She’s a great girl, she’s beautiful and stuff, I feel like that initial spark just hasn’t come yet.”

Taking to X, one fan then said: “Tommy needs to stop lying to himself, him and Jessy both don’t like each other like that!!!”

A second said: “I feel so bad for Tommy because Jessy is using him to stay in there and he deserves better!!!”
