Love Island stars Shaq Muhammad and Tanya Manhenga appeared to confirm their rumoured split on Tuesday.
The reality stars, who met during the winter series of the ITV2 dating series in 2019, have both unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Tanya, 24, sparked concern she had split from Shaq, 26, who is currently on holiday with pal Dami Hope, after she deleted all traces of him from her social media.

At the time Tanya shared a picture of them holding up the keys in their new kitchen, writing: ‘WE HAVE A NEW HOME.

‘Guess there’s no escaping now. Have to thank God always for this next step in our lives. Looking forward to this next chapter.’
Shaq and Tanya were scheduled to appear on Sunday night’s AfterSun but failed to appear.
Their appearance was first revealed over a week ago in TV guide listings which stated: ‘Maya Jama is joined by Indiyah Polack, Sam Thompson, Chris Taylor and ninth series favourites Tanya and Shaq to unpack all the action from the Love Island villa.’
The show went ahead without them but no explanation was given – further fuelling fears the pair have split.
MailOnline have contacted Shaq and Tanya’s representatives for comment.
The news comes months after Shaq and Tanya sparked engagement rumours earlier this year during a romantic holiday in Tanzania.
During the lavish holiday, Shaq celebrated Tanya’s birthday with an extravagant display consisting of a candlelit beach dinner at sunset.
Fans were quick to share that they thought the display was for an engagement but clearly aware of the lengths he had gone to, Shaq captioned the post: ‘This is just her birthday imagine when I propose.
Thank you for helping me in making my baby’s birthday one to remember.’

Tanya and Shaq then tucked into a luxury four course dinner, including lobster, before waiting staff carried over a birthday cake adorned with sparklers.
Fans were convinced the display looked like Shaq was going to propose, despite him teasing that an engagement would be even bigger.
Tanya and Shaq found fame on series nine of Love Island in South Africa in January 2023, where they made it to the final. The series was won by Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan.
It comes after, Tanya took a swipe at Love Island bosses over the way she was edited on screen.
‘I’ve watched more than she’s watched and based on the things that I know and how it was perceived, Tanya’s not like that. She’s not this big bad villain that everyone thinks she is,’ Shaq said.
‘She’s honestly the nicest, kindest girl that I’ve ever met and I wouldn’t be with her if that wasn’t the case,’ he added in an interview with the Daily Star.
Tanya said: ‘We never got picked because we were actually decent and they could tell how I am because they know how I am, but then obviously on screen it was a completely different thing, so yeah I do think we got edited pretty bad because that’s not me.’
