Love Island's Theo Campbell and Kaz Crossley announce split
It's all over!
They were one of the many Love Island couples who started dating despite being on different series, but the fairytale between 2017 star Theo Campbell and 2018 Islander Kaz Crossley has sadly come to an end.
Despite the pair looking very loved-up back in 2019, with Kaz supporting Theo through the terrifying ordeal of him losing the sight in one of his eyes, the couple have called it quits, with Theo confirming the news.
Speaking during an interview on Fubar, Theo seemingly hinted the romance didn't end well, admitting he feels 'underappreciated'.
He said, "I don’t wanna say too much but I’m gonna say, people these days and love these days, it’s confusing. It’s a tricky hard world. I feel like with us, I kinda gave it my everything and it feels a bit under-appreciated.
“It’s a bit crazy at the moment.”
He then added, “I don’t know what to call it. What’s the right way to say it? I got slinged! I don’t know what to call it.”
Theo later opened up about why he thinks their romance broke down, adding, “I met Kaz and I was like, she might be a bit different.
“We had the best relationship ever. It was the best! The first six months, seven months, amazing. Then it was kinda like, I dunno, something just happened…”
However, it sounds like Theo still has hope that the pair could rekindle their relationship, admitting Kaz might 'feel different' in a few weeks.
He said, “If there was such thing as the perfect boyfriend, it would be my face in the dictionary. The sacrifices I’ve made recently!
“Maybe she’ll feel different in a couple of weeks. Who knows?”

Kaz Crossley and Theo Campbell
In August 2019, Kaz proved her love for her man by flying out to Ibiza after Theo lost the sight in his right eye following an accident involving a champagne cork.
Admitting how 'proud' she was of his bravery following the accident, Kaz wrote, 'It's been a hard 24 hours no one here speaks English and he was taken for hours at one point and I had no clue he was in surgery again. I've stayed in his room over night and just want to take him home. He's so brave and positive hopefully it will get better thanks for your kind messages.'
However, in February 2021, Theo confirmed the pair have now split, admitting he got 'slinged'.
Michael Griffiths and Ellie Brown
Love Island 2019 star Michael Griffiths seemed to confirm he was dating 2018 Ellie Brown after the pair both appeared on Celebrity Ex On The Beach. The former fireman even called Ellie 'the one'.

Joanna Chimonides and Jack Fowler
After Joanna Chimonides was brutally dumped from the Love Island villa in 2019, fans of the show were left in shock when she was met at the airport by Love Island 2018 hunk Jack Fowler.

However, fast forward to August 2024, and Joanna and Jack were spotted looking very cosy on a boat trip in Italy. The pair are yet to confirm if they are dating.
Max Morley and Laura Anderson
Although Max Morley won Love Island 2015 alongside Jessica Hayes, the pair split shortly after leaving the villa and Max more or less removed himself from the spotlight.
