Big Love affair is over for TV couple

-

Love Island star Megan Barton- Hanson has announced that she has split from her partner, Wes Nelson, who she met on the reality series last summer.

Barton-Hanson posted the announceme­nt on Instagram in a message signed by both of them: “It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to separate.

“We have been working hard for well under a year, some of it together, some of it separated, to see what might have been possible between us, and we have come to the conclusion that while we love each other very much we will remain separate.”

She wrote that they are “parents first and foremost, to one incredibly wonderful hamster and we ask for his and our space and privacy to be respected at this difficult time”.

In a second post, she added: “In all seriousnes­s, I am so grateful and s o ble s s e d to hav e found Wes,

“I will always love and adore him and I am so lucky to call him my best friend.

“It has been an incredibly hard decision to make for both of us but we are looking forward to moving on together as friends and supporting each other in everything we do.”

Barton-Hanson said she will attend Sunday’s episode of Dancing On Ice to support Nelson and his ice skating partner Vanessa Bauer in the programme.
