jess spencer love island 2024 — Love Island star confirms new relationship ITV

Former Love Island star Jessica Spencer has moved on from her villa romance and has gone Instagram official with her new boyfriend.

Jess finished in fourth place with Ayo Odukoya on season 11 of the ITV show. The two continued dating after Love Island, but called it quits at the end of October.

Now Jess is in a relationship with another reality TV star you might remember from The Only Way Is Essex.

Taking to Instagram, Jess posted two black-and-white snaps with Braydon Hackett. "You", she captioned the photos, adding a black heart emoji.

Braydon had a short stint on TOWIE to support his cousin Roman Hackett after he fell out with his best friend Dani Imbert in 2021.

After Jess opened up on her relationship status with Braydon, her Love Island co-stars flocked to the comments section to congratulate her.

"Happy for you girlie," Jessy Potts commented, while Uma Jammeh wrote: "Queen" with a crown emoji and season 11 winner Mimii Tafara commented with three red heart emojis.

Matilda Draper, who's dating Braydon's cousin Roman, wrote: "HARD LAUNCH EMOJIIIIIIIII."

Last October, the split between Jess and Ayo was confirmed on TikTok. Responding to a follower insisting Ayo needed to make things official, Jess replied: "'Girl' says who?? The internet?? He doesn't need to ask me anything because we're not together. Let it go."

Jess isn't the only Love Island star who rang in the new year with a new partner.

Love Island season 8 star Jay Younger also launched his new relationship in a 2024 highlights post on Instagram, while Josh Denzel announced his engagement to girlfriend Ruby Wong at the end of December.

Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
