Demi Jones talks Luke Mabbott split
Love Island winter series contestant Demi Jones has opened up about her split from co-star Luke Mabbott.
She said she doesn't think, 'his heart was in it as much as [hers].'
Demi confirmed the news with Metro last week, 'Unfortunately me and Luke have gone our separate ways now.'
She added, 'It is a shame because he is a lovely boy and we’re all amicable and friendly, but unfortunately when we came out of the villa I realised my energy wasn’t being reciprocated with Luke on effort levels and such.'
'We drifted [apart] and obviously we’re so far away in lockdown which is a shame, but I wish him all the best.'
Demi pointed out how difficult it is getting to know someone in the Love Island villa.
She said, 'everything is so heightened,' and, 'it’s hard to see people for their personal beings when there’s so many people around.'
'When I came out, I realised I’m a bit of a ball of energy and very positive and unfortunately I just don’t think his heart was in it as much as mine.'
Demi admitted, 'I hope he was genuinely interested in me in the villa.'
'I feel like since coming out of the villa it was quite fast in wanting to end it.'
'But it is what it is I guess,' she added.
Lockdown
The former Islander admitted lockdown made their relationship even harder to maintain.
She said they, 'probably would have had a better chance,' if it weren't for the global pandemic.
Demi explained, 'We would have been able to see each other more.'

The reality TV star admitted she hopes someday she'll meet someone who's, 'gonna sweep [her] off [her] feet.'
Until then, Demi is placing her soul focus on herself, 'and all [her] projects.'
She said, 'if it happens, it happens.' However, she's adamant, 'You won’t see me back on Tinder!'
Luke hasn't commented.
