A Love Island couple have ended their romance just weeks after showing their love for each other on a date.
Sparks seemed to have flown between Trey Norman and Abbie Quinnen after the 24-year-old reality star revealed that he had been sending direct messages to the dancer.
After splitting up with Ellie Jackson, the handsome man was unable to find true love on the island, but he reportedly hit it off with 27-year-old Abbie right away.
The couple had only been dating for a short time, but just a month after they were spotted taking a romantic stroll in a park, the two called it quits.
A source told The Sun that although the two enjoyed getting to know each other, they decided to remain friends and not take things further.
Trey Norman and Abbie Quinnen appeared to be on good terms after the 24-year-old Love Island star revealed he had been sending direct messages to the dancer, but the pair have since ended their romance.
A source told The Sun that the couple had enjoyed getting to know each other and had a lot in common, but Abbie (pictured) and Trey’s busy schedules had kept them apart.
They added that despite their mutual attraction, the chemistry between them had faded.
The source went on to say that Trey is focused on making the most of his post-Love Island fame, but they wish each other the best.
A source close to the couple said: “They are still best friends and still talk to each other all the time, it was just because of the distance and their busy schedules.”
Earlier this month, Trey seemed excited about a possible future with Abbie.
He told The Sun at the launch of Wes Nelson’s single that they were just getting to know each other.
He said at the time: “It’s really relaxed at the moment. I’ve been down here a few times and she’s given me a lot of advice and helped me with the process.”
He added that he had direct messaged her on Instagram and they had chatted about their experiences as a celebrity.
The reality star went on to say that they “get along great” and Abbie is very down to earth.
Earlier this month, Trey praised Abbie, revealing that the couple had visited and dated each other, and described the dancer as “very down to earth.”

The couple was also spotted taking a romantic stroll in a park and things apparently moved quickly.
A source told The Sun: “Trey didn’t find love in the villa, but when he saw Abbie he couldn’t wait to ask her out.”
“Now everything is progressing quickly and the embryonic stage is finally overcome!”
He added that the new couple had been exclusive, but that their romance had fizzled out despite constant texting and joint visits to red carpets.
The split came as a surprise to some after Trey kidnapped Abbie on a romantic date and was recently spotted holding hands as they left a restaurant.
Abbie was heartbroken after her professional dance partner AJ Pritchard suddenly left her.
The dancers split in 2022 after three years together, and Abbie reportedly caught AJ messaging another woman in October.

Former Strictly star AJ, 29, then quickly moved on with his current girlfriend Zara Zoffany, and the blonde bombshell is said to have been “desperate”.
She told The Sun: “I am absolutely devastated and my world has collapsed.”
“AJ is not the person I thought he was. After everything I went through with him, I thought we would be together forever.”
“He was completely emotionless and broke up with me. He told me he didn’t love me anymore and didn’t want to be with me anymore.”
Trey initially dated Ellie and the two got together during Casa Amor week, but later broke up after she admitted that she thought he was more interested in fame than her.
