What is it about Love Island girlies and those who work in the music industry that they simply cannot resist?

Love Island 2022 bombshell Coco Lodge is apparently dating DJ Joel Corry, host and style icon Maya Jama is, of course, in a relationship with Stormzy and now Lucinda Strafford has been off holidaying with a music producer/DJ type.

The Love Island 2021 star split from her Love Island Australia fella Zac Nunns earlier on in the year and is now reportedly enjoying a romance with British DJ Nathan Dawe.

According to The Sun, "They’re on holiday together in Dubai right now - it’s early days but they really like each other."

In fact, Lucinda posted a picture on her Instagram story of her on a flight to somewhere (we're guessing NOT Dubai) where she wrote, "back home 💔💔💔never wanted it to end🥹"

Oh, young love.

Lucinda's reps have been contacted for comment.

Lucinda Strafford and Zac Nunns

Lucinda split from New Zealander Zac Nunns in February 2024 after they met on Love Island Australia.

Sharing a post on his grid, Zac wrote, 'Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know that Lucinda and I have decided to separate ways. I'm not feeling too good about the situation and appreciate the support so far."

As if we live in a day and age where you have to share your break up news on social media. Brutal.

Lucinda Stafford and Aaron Connolly

Lucinda and Irish premiership footballer Aaron Connolly had an on/off romance for a while but split before she headed to Australia for her second Love Island stint.

He looked after Lucinda's pet bulldog while she was in the villa first time around, which sparked speculation that the pair had made a 'pact' to get back together after the show.

The pair called it quits after Aaron was exposed as a 'serial cheater' and even breached lockdown rules in the process.

Lucinda initially coupled up with Brad McClelland in the villa, however a cruel twist resulted in one of them having to leave the show. Brad sacrificed himself, but things didn't end there... After leaving the villa it was clear Brad still had feelings for Lucinda, and after she was booted from the show they apparently reunited with Brad even getting into a "bust-up" at a nightclub over her. It clearly didn't amount to anything though, as Lucinda was soon back with Aaron Connolly.

After Brad left the villa, Lucinda struck up romance with Aaron Francis. She later revealed that outside of the show their relationship lasted less than 72 hours and she "didn’t find actual love in the villa" even though she tried her hardest to.

Before coupling up with Aaron, Lucinda found herself in a bit of a love triangle between Aaron and bombshell Danny Bibby. Things didn't work on inside the villa but the duo sparked rumours again after they were booted from the show.
