Are Faye and Teddy still together? 2023 update on Love Island couple
Here's their relationship status today
Love Island fans are wondering if 2021 favourites Faye and Teddy are still together in 2023.
Faye Winter and Teddy Soares certainly had a rocky relationship in the Love Island villa, but fans were pleased to see the couple defied all odds and remained together long after Love Island finished. Two years on from their reality TV appearance, we've seen the pair share loved-up snaps and sweet relationship milestones on social media. But 2023 has been shrowded in split speculation. We set the record straight on whether Faye and Teddy are still together.
Whilst we've shared details of other Love Island couples still together, there's been a few notable break-ups over the past few years. Love Island 2021 runner-ups Chloe Burrows and Toby Aromolaran announced their split last year, whilst news broke of Kaz Kamwi and Tyler Cruickshank's separation in late 2021.
Are Faye and Teddy still together?
No, sadly, Love Island couple Faye and Teddy have split up after almost two years together. It was Faye who confirmed their break-up via Instagram stories on February 15, 2023.
"I wanted to let you know that after lots of time and consideration, Teddy and I have decided to go our separate ways," read the statement. "Thank you all so much for supporting our relationship and sharing the journey with us, I’m forever grateful."

News of their separation comes just under two weeks since Teddy shut down split rumours on social media. Speculation grew that the relationship suffered when the 29-year-old began filming SAS: Who Dares Wins.
But Teddy rubbished these claims on his Instagram stories on February 4. He wrote: "Everything you have been reading in the press is false.

"I have nothing but love and respect for Faye since we first met," he continued. "I do not wish to comment on rumours speculating our relationship and ask for you to respect our privacy at this time."
It's thought that the two may have parted ways before Valentine's Day this year. Faye, 27, shared a snap of herself in lingerie in an Instagram post for the occasion. The caption read: "Valentines isn’t just for couples - it’s also a time to fall in love with yourself." Some have said this was an obvious hint that the two were no longer together.
Reality star Faye also arrived at the Brit Awards 2023 solo on February 11.
Post-split, the two have unfollowed each other on Instagram. The Sun reports that Faye is "devastated" the relationship is over.
"She really hoped she and Teddy were forever, but sadly it wasn't to be," a source close to the star told the publication. "She's known deep down it was over for a while, but wasn't ready to let go. Faye's keeping her focus on their dog Bonnie and making sure she keeps busy with work."
Teddy is yet to speak out about the couple's break up.
The last time the couple were spotted together publicly was at an after party for James Cameron's Avatar: The Way of Water premiere in December 6, 2022. The two posed for photos together at The Natural History Museum in London.
As for social media, the last time Faye posted a photo of the two together was in November 22, 2022. "It's the Sundays for me," read the caption, alongside pictures of Teddy and Faye walking with their dog Bonnie and enjoying a roast dinner.

The sneaky Love Island producers sent a postcard to the main villa which showed Teddy kissing Casa Amor contestant Clarisse Juliette. "A picture says a thousand words," a hurt Faye declared. The reality was, however, that Teddy had only kissed Clarisse as part of a game.
Faye decided to couple up with Casa Amor boy Sam Jackson at the next recoupling, whilst a disappointed Teddy returned to the villa single. Teddy later clarified the kiss situation and the two were able to rekindle things, staying coupled up till the grand finale.
