Love Island winner Kem Cetinay is ‘gutted’ as Amber Davies moves on from him with other celebs
The romance between Kem and Amber ended four months after they hooked up in the Love Island villa
LOVE Island winner KEM CETINAY is struggling to get over his split from AMBER DAVIES after she was linked to OLLY MURS and Towie’s PETE WICKS.
The ex-hairdresser admits seeing his ex moving on with another celebrity has left him “gutted”, making the recovery process so much worse.
Speaking in his first newspaper chat since the split, which The Sun revealed last month, Kem said: “I’m not going to lie when I say that it does really hurt. I am gutted. It does make me sad. It is hard to see.
“I am not going to sit here and say it is fine — I still have feelings for her — but at the end of the day, if she wants to date a celeb then I have to accept it. There’s nothing I can say.” Just before Christmas it was revealed Amber had shared flirty messages with singer Olly, and on Thursday night she appeared to be getting close to Towie hunk Pete in a video posted on social media.
The romance between Kem and Amber, inset, ended four months after they hooked up in the Love Island villa before eventually going on to win the ITV2 show. Kem chose to split the £50,000 prize money with Amber rather than take it all for himself in the final episode of the series before they shacked up in Essex.
But after several rows, the couple called off their romance before agreeing to each keep their £25k winnings.He said: “Like in any relationship, there were triggers and things happened and I started to notice things. Of course we rowed and bickered.But it was a mutual decision and we sat down together and in the end we split to see how we feel.”
Kem is now concentrating on winning another reality show, Dancing On Ice, which kicks off on ITV tomorrow at 6pm.
But if he has his way, Kem might just return to more familiar surroundings now he’s single again.
He said: “I would go back on Love Island. I should apply under a different name — that would be good, wouldn’t it?” I bet bosses would make a special case for him to return.
Dua is making tracks
THERE is no chance of DUA LIPA resting on her laurels after becoming the breakout star of 2017.She has jetted to Jamaica to write her second album at the same studios where HARRY STYLES penned his debut solo record.And on Friday she will release the video to IDGAF – the sixth single from her self-titled debut album.
The Brit singer has also posed for this shot by photographer Dexter Navy for her second collaboration with Foot Locker. Speaking about her style, she said: “Occasionally, fashion can make you feel invincible.I don’t know if it’s ever saved me, but it’s felt like a shield at times.”
Better than forking out for a security guard, I guess.

Comic Rob Weddy for his big night
ROB BECKETT is gearing up for the biggest TV gig of his career tonight, co-hosting BBC1 show Wedding Day Winners alongside Sun columnist LORRAINE KELLY.And it seems to have turned the comedian into a wedding expert, as he’s now dishing out honeymoon advice to the newlyweds.
In an exclusive chat, Rob said: “I think it’s better to go somewhere cold for romance as when you’re hot you don’t want anyone touching you. “You know what it’s like – it’s 30C on the beach and someone gives you a cuddle and you’re like, ‘Get off’. I can’t be romantic in the heat.”
Rob’s best suit is ruined in the series opener, when he gets covered in icing sugar during a cake decorating challenge called Gateau-ver Yourself.That’s just one of the madcap games taking place. It’s well worth staying in for.

Gary's fit plan
GARY BARLOW isn’t getting the gloomy January blues get him down. The TAKE THAT frontman yesterday started work on his fitness series Barlow’s Bootcamp – after I announced last month his plans for an exercise series.
He wrote on Instagram: “Been making some clips with my friend Shona Vertue and I love her vids and advice.“She’s incredible. This is a great intro for yoga. Don’t be scared, especially guys.Can’t tell you how much yoga helps me on a daily basis.”
In December Gary, left, said: “I have from the New Year until April to get myself ship-shape to come on the stage and I’m going to catalogue it.” The singer’s in pretty good shape already, so it won’t take him long.
Mollie gig axe
AJ PRITCHARD is already showing his protective side to girlfriend MOLLIE KING. The Strictly pro has laid into bosses for not including his dance partner on the show’s lucrative UK tour. Despite doing amazingly well to reach the semi-finals, the pair have been axed in favour of comedian SUSAN CALMAN for the 20 UK dates.It will also force the lovebirds to be apart for two months as AJ will have to fulfil his duties as a backing dancer.
A source said: “AJ rowed with bosses as he felt it was unfair that he and Mollie could not perform on the tour. It’s a really fun gig and they had both been looking forward to it."
“She was excited to be spending time on the road with AJ and the Strictly crew too, so it was a blow all round.” Hopefully absence will make the heart grow fonder.
