Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies announced they were calling it quits and were better off as friends shortly after winning the Love Island All Stars trophy. Samie Elishi is a 26-year-old influencer from Islington in north London who first appeared on the ninth season of Love Island in 2023 and worked as a senior estate agent coordinator prior to the show. Ciaran Davies is from the rural town of Pencoed in South Wales.
Sources reveal that cracks between Samie Elishi and Ciaran Davies appeared almost immediately after the show wrapped. According to Daily Mail - Home, a source described that the couple went to visit Wales almost instantly after coming out of Love Island, and Samie decided Ciaran wasn't for her as he came from a small town, realizing their lives were too different. According to Daily Mail - Home, a source described that she came back from Wales and went on a date with Tyrique Hyde, and the pair have been spending a lot of time together, having even booked a trip in a few weeks' time to see if they get on well.

Tyrique Hyde is a fellow Love Island alum from season ten, an Essex-born semi-professional footballer from Chafford Hundred in Essex. In an online clip months before Samie Elishi entered the villa, when asked hypothetically who he would most like to share a bed with, Tyrique Hyde said Samie, describing her as very good looking. Days before the latest All Stars season started, Tyrique Hyde admitted he rates Samie as a good-looking girl, noting he has seen her in real life and found her cool. He also commented Happy New Year under Samie Elishi's Instagram post on January 5 alongside a heart emoji. It remains unknown whether Samie Elishi and Tyrique Hyde are officially in a romantic relationship or if their connection existed before her All Stars appearance as insiders suggest, and the exact reasons for the breakup beyond reported cultural differences are unclear.
