'Some days I still get really emotional

Faye Winter may have been the one who decided to call time on her relationship with Love Island boyfriend Teddy Soares back in February, but when we catch up with the 27-year-old, she admits that she still feels like she’s going through a “grieving process”.

Devon-born Faye, who met and fell in love with Teddy on the ITV2 reality show in 2021, tells us, “I think with any break-up and any grieving process, it comes in waves. You know, sometimes the sea is like a millpond and then all of a sudden there will be a big wave. There are still some days where I get really emotional, but it’s been easier to try and move on knowing there is full closure now.”

That said, Faye admits meeting someone new is far from her mind right now. “I’m nowhere near in a position to be thinking about anybody else or even considering dating, but right now I’m still having waves of grief, but not every day, every couple of hours,” she says. “It’s just one of those things, you’ve got to go through it. It’s hard to have somebody who you were so close to become just a stranger.

Explaining how the break-up from former financial advisor Teddy came about, Faye says, “It was definitely my decision to end the relationship.”

But she also says prior to the split there was a time she “didn’t know if we were going to work things out”. She reveals, “I was very open to seeing if there were small changes that could be made, but it didn’t work out that way.”
