If you've been following Love Island winner Jess Harding's antics since she claimed the Love Island 2023 crown, you'll know that she's been living her absolute BEST life. In fact, as far as we can tell, all she's really done since leaving the villa is go on countless holidays and split with Sammy Root. It's giving independent winner behaviour and tbh, if we were 22-years-old and £25K richer we'd have spent the last two months sunning it up around beautiful people.

Side note – we're here for you, Sammy, we have a soft spot for you too, but this article's about Jessica bossing her single lady journey.

We're making out that Jess has done nothing but get richer and more sun kissed this summer – that's unfair. Not only has she been working on her very own In The Style collection, but she recently announced some HUGE career news.

Jess – who runs her own aesthetics business called Candy Aesthetics in Uxbridge – recently took to her Instagram grid to announce that she is now a fully qualified Level 3 Trainer & Educator in aesthetics.

She shared a fresh-faced snap of herself with a fancy certificate, captioning the photo, " @candyaestheticsx Training Academy 🎓.

"What an amazing time to say I’m now a fully qualified Level 3 Trainer & Educator 🤍 .

"A big thank you to @sargenttraining for being so professional and amazing! Couldn’t thank you enough 💕💕💕.

"Ps if you ever want to get into aesthetics here’s your girl 😍🥰."

Another accolade to add to the living room mantle, eh, Jess?

Jess's exciting new career news comes just weeks after her and former bf Sammy decided to split as their "relationship changed since leaving the villa."

The pair have allegedly decided they're much "better off as friends" after trying to make it work for weeks IRL.

A source told MailOnline, "Jess and Sammy have called it quits.

"Things have changed since leaving the villa and Jess has realised they're better off as friends."

The pair then both released Instagram statements, and we have to say, it sort of sounds like Sammy didn't even know the split was officially happening and that Jess made the final decision while she was on one of her MANY holibobs – we're just speculating after reading both Instagram story statements, but if that's the case – awks.

Neither party have gone into detail about the split, but both seem to be thriving in the outside world – and let's not forget £25K richer, which is the real win in 2023, let's face it.
