SECOND CHANCE? Love Island couple spark rumours they’re back ON as they party together after Brit Awards

A LOVE Island couple have sparked rumours they are back on just weeks after their shock split.

The couple, who were finalists in the 2023 series, raised eyebrows with their unexpected break up – with some viewers even dubbing it “fake.”

And it seems the rumour mill is still rumbling on when it comes to Tyrique Hyde, 24, and Ella Thomas, 23.

This weekend, we reported how model Ella looked sensational in a duo of dresses as she stepped out for the Brits at London’s O2.

Now eagle-eyed fans have dug out a snap showing her standing nect to Tyrique with a glass in hand.

She appears cosy with the footballer, who can be seen with a grin on his face.

One Love Island regular wrote on Reddit: “Ella and Ty spotted together at the Brits After party last night!!

“Ella and Tyrique seem to be fine after spending time with each other at the Brit’s after party last night. thoughts?! Is all this just rumours?”

A second mused: “They’re just clearly in an on/off, likely toxic relationship. This isn’t something that is going to last.”

A third added: “Why’s everyone acting surprised lol we knew they would be the on/off dare I say toxic that will keep it up for a long time lol.”

Last month, another section of fans have insisted Ella and Tyrique had only broken up for the “attention” – in what they suspected was a strategic move.

Viewers have dubbed it a “fake split” and suggested the timing is off as it came in the aftermath of the All Stars finale.

At the time, one unconvinced fan was quick to take to Reddit to put: “Ty and Ella did this for publicity or to mess with the fans and it worked.”

Last month, a source close to the Ty and Ella told The Sun: “They have tried really hard but just been having constant arguments.

“At the end of day they want different things and it’s too hard to make it work.

“They are saying it’s over for good this time and there is no going back.”

Tyrique also broke his silence on the break-up, taking a swipe at his villa ex.

The footballer took to social media to upload a photo showing a carton of milk with the phrase: “don’t cry over spilt milk”.

The post also captured images of him in a recording studio and having a tattoo.

“Never let a hard time humble us,” Tyrique cryptically wrote in the caption.

The pair briefly split in November before patching things up.

It comes after a Love Island super-sleuth was convinced she had pinpointed the clues to prove 2020 stars Finn Tapp and Paige Turley have reunited.

The TikTok user called out a telling detail which showed Finn was staying in a hotel – in the same Scottish area where singer Paige was completing a hike.
