SPECULATION that Love Island's Joey Essex and Jessy Potts have split has continued to grow.

The couple has hardly been seen together since leaving the villa, with many fans suggesting they had a 'showmance'.

Jessy, 25, was spotted enjoying the sunshine in Brighton with her friends and Joey was nowhere to be seen.

She threw a peace sign as she spun around on the waltzers, joking that she was a ";big kid".

While Jessy has been catching up with friends, Joey has been mobbed by fans.

The Towie star stopped to pose for selfies after he was spotted cycling through London.

Joey, 34, is known for his many appearances on reality TV such as Celebs Go DatingI'm A Celebrity, and Dancing On Ice.

But it is his most recent stint on Love Island that has caused such a stir amongst fans.

He appeared at Pryzm in Kingston one night, where he greeted clubbers.

Jessy was also in London that night but she was out with friends for a birthday party.

This comes as fans accused the couple of faking their relationship for the sake of airtime.

Whilst the pair got off to a good start after they returned to reality, their dates appear to have dwindled.

Joey didn't attend Jessy's homecoming party which was thrown for her by family and friends.

Joey also revealed that he was quitting the UK to find fame in America during an interview with This Morning.

One took to Reddit to remark: "Not one time did he ever consider the fact that Jessy may or may not come with him to America - and quite frankly, I don’t think he gives a damn if she does."

"How will Jessy even get to America? Is she going to America?

"Logistically speaking, Jessy isn’t gonna stop her career to see her boyfriend filming on set for some reality tv show."

They also added: "It’s also safe to say that he doesn’t take her feelings into consideration when he constantly says, in various interviews and also on Love Island, that he went to the villa for a laugh. Joey didn’t give a s**t who he was paired with, as long as he got into the final as promised (which completely landed flat on his face).

"All of this leads me to think that Joey’s always gonna look out for number one - himself."

"Everything is me, me, me. Everyone called a spade a spade on day 52 - Joey is a game player who will always prioritise his career before anything else."
