LOVE Island bombshell Whitney Adebayo divulged exciting plans for her and Love Island beau Lochan Nowacki in an explosive new vlog update.
The Camden-born reality star, 26, posted a life update video on YouTube, where she answered some of her dedicated fans most pressing questions about her life post-villa.
The wig entrepreneur and her account manager boyfriend Lochan’s relationship has been going strong since they left villa hand-in-hand in second place.
The beauty mogul entered the villa on Day 3, and experienced highs and lows on the hit ITV2 reality show, stealing contestant Andre Furtado, 22, the same day she entered into the villa.
She coupled up with Mehdi Edno, 26, on Day 5, and in a surprising turn of events, she took personal trainer Zachariah Noble, 26, out on a date but their chemistry would soon fizzle out.
Her luck changed in Week 5, when Windsor-born Lochan entered Cara Amor on Day 26. On Day 31, Whitney chose to couple up with Lochan.
The show favourites lost out on the winning spot to Jess Harding, 23, and Sammy Root, 23 on the show finale on Day 58.
The honeymoon soon came to an end for Jess and Sammy, as they shocked fans by announced their split in October of last year, three months after winning the series.
Responding to a fan question on her vlog this week, Whitney revealed she was considering moving in with Lochan.
The social media star, who boasts over 1 million followers across her social media accounts, told fans on YouTube: “I would live with Lochan, but I am torn because Lochan lives with his friends.”
She continued: “Him and his friends are going to get a place for themselves for a year. And then the following year it’s ideal that we’ll move in together.”
However, the beauty influencer explained that timing of when her and Lochan decide to take the gigantic step of living together depends on a number of factors.
The content creator said: “Half of me wants to [move in], but the Christian in me is like ‘Why are you living with a guy that you’re not married to? What are you doing? You don’t need no trial.’ ”
“I don’t know about cohabitation before marriage. So I don’t know, I am torn between the world we live in, and my faith. But I love him and I definitely want to live with him at some point.”
Fans waded into the conversation in the comment section to sound off on their own analysis of Whitney’s current relationship stance.
One fan posted: “Love how you’re not fitting into society’s expectations with the moving in thing.”
Another echoed a similar sentiment, telling the media star: “She is allowed to be authentic, and I admire her for that. Move in when you’re ready to!”
The relationship update is fresh of the heels of a feud with Series 10 Love Islander Tyrique Hyde, 24, who seemingly took to Instagram to take a dig at Whitney and Lochan.
Tyrique unfollowed both Lochan and Whitney on Instagram earlier this year, after announcing his split from Ella Thomas, 23, on Snapchat back in February.
He added insult to injury by leaving a row of laughing emojis under a Shade Borough post which praised Whitney and Lochan for being the only finalists from the 10th Love Island series to still be together.
Fans took this move as jab to his former friends, and as an indicator that he may believe the two will not last long.
Another fan suspected Tyrique may have through the post was false, leaving laughing emojis to indicate that Lochan and Whitney are not the only Season 10 finalists that are still together.
The fan commented: “Ty was probably telling us him and Ella are still together.”
Ella and and Whitney famously feuded in the villa, but the two friends reconciled during the show. Since exiting the show, they both told fans that they were still ‘best friends’.
However, it appears the Love Island buddies fell out, with Ella giving a post-villa interview to presenter and TV personality, Zeze Millz, 34, on her podcast.
In December of last year, Zeze asked Ella she was still friends with Whitney.
Ella surprised listeners by saying: “Yeah cool, no issue. But we’re not really as close as we were in the villa.”
In spite of Whitney and Ella’s explosive argument in the villa, where the two traded insults such as ‘spoilt’ and ‘disrespectful’, Whitney and Ella had seemingly patched up their friendship after leaving the show.
Tyrique and Whitney left viewers at the edge of their seats with their own disagreements during the series.
The argument took place after the Graftie awards, where Tyrique accused Lochan of ‘pillow talking too much’ with Whitney, about conversations he deemed ‘purely for the guys’ within the villa.
The two eventually made up and the former friends even went to a studio together after leaving the show.
They sourced a London studio to record their viral Love Island song Bad B. But the song was shelved and never released.
Whitney has not responded to any rumours of a rift between the former friends.
The influencer of Nigerian descent is remaining focused on self-improvement, building her brand and love life with boyfriend Lochan, which she regularly posts about on Instagram.
