What happened between Grace and Reuben?
After leaving the villa, Grace and Reuben tried to make their relationship work, but the pair split around a month after exiting the show.
Speaking about their split, Reuben told The Sun: "I can't speak for her, but since we came out it has been quite busy and there's a lot to deal with.
"We've both been very busy and with the long distance it was difficult. I wish her all the best, she wishes me all the best. There are no bad feelings. We had a great experience together."
Grace also confirmed the pair were on civil terms, revealing: "Reuben is one of the loveliest people I’ve ever met, there’s no bad blood at all, we’re just good friends and we still touch base from time to time."
Who has Grace Jackson dated and who are her ex-boyfriends?
Since leaving Love Island, Grace has kept her love life out of the public eye, however there were rumours last year that she was dating Manchester United footballer Marcus Rashford.
However their romance came to an end in late 2024, with a source telling The Sun: "Grace realised that Marcus wasn’t serious about her and has unfollowed him on Instagram.
"She realised there was no future so she has decided to cut ties."
They continued: "When the opportunity arose to take part in Love Island All Stars this winter Grace jumped at the chance, she is still young in her career and is keen to maximise the exposure to help with her modelling work and net campaign deals.
"If she finds love on the show that’s a bonus, especially since she didn’t meet a suitable match in the summer."
The insider added: "As far as she is concerned it’s Marcus’ loss, she is putting her best foot forward and can’t wait to enjoy some winter sun in gloomy January."
What is Grace's Instagram?
Fans can follow Grace on Instagram @gracexrosa where she currently boasts over 611,000 followers.
