Another day, another black and white Instagram story split statement by a Love Island couple. Seriously, how did celebrity couples make breakup announcements before Instagram? We genuinely can't remember.

While the couple drama is heating up post-Casa on Love Island 2025, back at home, a long-term Love Island couple has officially called it quits two years after reaching the final together.

Love Island 2023 fave Molly Marsh took to her Instagram story yesterday (Wednesday 9 July) to confirm that she and her Love Island bae Zach Noble have officially called it quits after two years of dating.

The finalist wrote, 'I just want to confirm the rumours. Myself and Zac have split up and are no longer together.

'We have parted ways as friends and thank you for your love and support of our relationship over the past two years.'

Zach is yet to comment on the split, but he seems to be doing what he always does, from the looks of his socials - gymming and playing with his dog.

Oh, and sharing inspirational quotes like, 'Just be better than yesterday'.

Molly and Zach quickly formed a bond in the summer of 2023 and coupled up (well, after Molly's disaster with Messy Mitch). But when Love Island series two star Kady McDermott entered as a bombshell, she chose to couple up with PT Zach, resulting in Molly’s dumping. Producers then brought her back during Casa Amor, where she rekindled with Zach before they finished in fourth place.

Despite many fans saying it would never last (although, in hindsight...), Molly and Zach made a pretty good go of it IRL by Love Island standards.

The couple then announced their (first) split in early 2024, but according to reports, never really put a stop to the contact when they broke up. They then went travelling together and their reps put out a statement that really confused us...

The statement read, 'Molly and Zachariah have always remained friends, even when they both decided to break from their relationship almost 2 months ago. The couple have always supported each other and had similar interests, including seeing parts of the world and travelling.

'They are not putting pressure on their relationship at present, or labelling it, but are very excited to go travelling around Australia together for the next few weeks. They’re both really happy and enjoying each other's company.'

Predictably, they then got back together with things seemingly going from strength to strength.

Seemingly.

Another one bites the dust.
