Love Island couple in shock SPLIT just days after leaving the villa

LOVE Island All Stars couple Olivia Hawkins and Marcel Somerville have split just days after leaving the villa.

Despite leaving the show arm in arm The Sun can exclusively reveal the pair have called it quits as "things just weren’t working out".

Now, friends tell The Sun it’s “no longer romantic” between Marcel and Liv and the pair felt “it was better to end things as friends”.

Speaking to The Sun, a source revealed: “Olivia and Marcel ended things a few days ago. 

“Things just weren't working out, outside the villa, and it was better to end things as friends rather than force anything.

“They really are good mates though - they speak all the time and have a lot of respect for each other, but it's no longer romantic."

In a shock double dumping, Olivia and Marcel were eliminated from the show after the public was tasked with voting for their least compatible couple.

Despite showing signs of early promise, the pair's romantic connection failed to win over viewers - even though the pair shared a very sweet recoupling speech earlier that week. 

After being told they were dumped from the villa, Liv called Marcel "the cutest" and they said they were glad to be leaving together.

It seems the couple’s relationship was already heading downhill when the reality beauty appeared on the Sisters In The City Podcast.

Hosted by former islander Anna Vakili and her sister Mandi, Olivia kept things vague about her connection with Marcel. 

On the pod, Olivia was asked if she was ‘closed off’ with Marcel, to which she replied: “No definitely not closed off.

“You know what, it's like when you come out of the villa there's so much pressure on you and we're not together, we're still getting to know each other.”

“We were only coupled up for a week - it’s very early days.”

“He's officially still married, he's still going through a divorce, so obviously the situation in Love Island was … you don't think about that, but when you come out you have to think about the logistics of things,” she continued.

She was then asked whether she had a passionate ‘fire in her belly’ when it came to Marcel, something she admitted she previously had with fellow Islander Luca Bish.

She responded with a mischievous smile, later adding: “I mean it could grow.”

Host Mandi chimed: “No, it's not there,” to which they all laughed.
