Love Island’s Jessy Potts addresses Joey Essex split after he joins celeb dating app
LOVE Island bombshell Jessy Potts has addressed her split with Joey Essex in a frank comment after he joined an A-List dating site.
The Sun exclusively reported how the former TOWIE star had signed up to matchmaking app Raya – just weeks after the pair’s break-up.
Joey, 34, who previously signed up to dating service Huggle in 2022, can now be found on Raya, where his profile lists him as living in Dubai.
The ITV2 stars released a heartbreaking statement in September after things came to an end.
Now Jessy, 25, has been quizzed on potential regrets after meeting her ex on Love Island – in awkward scenes which saw her “steal” him away from his ex Grace Jackson.
The model launched a question and answer box on her Instagram page as she told fans she had time to answer questions during her trip to see her family.
One promptly asked: “Was going on Love Island worth it in your opinion?”
She was quick to respond: “Absolutely!
“It was the best thing I’ve ever done, without a doubt.
I had so much fun doing it, have been given incredible opportunities since leaving the villa and despite it not working on the outside, I did meet someone I liked and had the best summer ever with an amazing group of people.”
Joey and Jessy battled split rumours since leaving the villa, with their busy schedules meaning they were unable to spend time together.
SAD STATEMENT
Joey released a statement on their split and was first to tell us: “Unfortunately, we have decided to call an end to the relationship but I hope we can continue to be friends.
“I truly wish Jessy the very best with whatever she does in the future.”
Jessy then added: “I appreciate the Love Island experience I had with Joey, we tried to make it work but it wasn’t to be.
“I’m so grateful to everyone who supported us and look forward to all of the exciting opportunities ahead.”
