We can exclusively reveal that the pair's three-month romance ended abruptly after Georgia met up with her former flame
LOVE Island’s Georgia Steel and Sam Bird split up after she was accused of cheating on him with her ex-boyfriend.
Yesterday Sam announced the pair had called it quits and admitted he was too upset to reveal the real reason behind their shock break-up.
Now, The Sun Online can exclusively reveal that their three-month romance, which started in Love Island this summer, ended abruptly after she met up with her former flame, who she dated for a year prior to entering the villa.
A source close to Georgia told us: “The relationship ended after Georgia was accused of being unfaithful, after she met up with her ex.
“But Georgia insists she hasn't been disloyal at all – and has told Sam that nothing actually happened.
“She did meet up with her ex because she still had loads of his stuff and wanted to give it back.
“They ended up having a bit of a heart to heart, with Georgia admitting things weren't going very well with Sam and she ended up staying the night - but in the spare bedroom.
“Sam was furious and really shocked when he found out and decided to end it all. Georgia is devastated as she really loved him and wishes him nothing but the best.”
The source continued: “Sam and Georgia’s relationship had been struggling before this. They spent a lot of time apart because of their conflicting schedules and in all honesty they had started falling out of love before she was accused of cheating.”
Georgia, 20, whose catchphrase was "I'm loyal, babes" and Sam, 25, were inseparable after meeting in the villa and looked loved-up when they partied with their pals at London's Festival Hall just two nights ago.
But, in a statement posted on Twitter last night, Sam said: “I’m devastated to announce me and Georgia have split up for reasons I cant bring myself to comment on at the moment.
“As always I wish her all the best.”
Georgia later confirmed the news and told her Instagram followers: “I'm very sad to say me and Sam have split.
“I will always care about him. However please understand this is a hard time for us both. Thank you.”
