Love Island’s Teddy Soares speaks out for the first time about his public break-up with Faye Winter

Teddy Soares has been making waves on and off screen with his charming personality and undeniable talent. However, it wasn’t until his highly publicized split from Faye Winter on Love Island that fans began to see a different side of him. With rumors of infidelity and heartbreak swirling around him, Teddy initially retreated into himself. But now, he’s slowly but surely “coming out of his shell” and embracing his newfound independence. In this article, we’ll explore Teddy’s journey post-breakup and how he’s rediscovering his sense of self.


Love Island star Teddy Soares has opened up about his split from Faye Winter, revealing that he’s struggled with the public nature of their break-up. The couple, who met on the seventh series of the popular reality show, went on to move in together before going their separate ways in February 2023. Speaking to MailOnline, Teddy admitted that he’s found it tough seeing Faye talk about him on social media, saying “I’ve never been through a public break up before so it’s difficult seeing it everywhere and seeing things she posts and stuff online.”

Teddy also revealed that he’s finally feeling like he’s “coming out of his shell” after the break-up, adding “I have a voice again. I feel like I’m coming out of my shell again and going to events and going out more. Which is really nice.” However, he did admit that he finds it difficult seeing Faye post pictures of their shared golden retriever, Bonnie. “She is posting the dog which is really hard because we shared it. I have snoop every so often to see the dog, she’s grown so much since I left in January.”

Faye, who has also spoken about the break-up, told The Sun in March that it had been “hard going through the break-up in the public eye.” She also shared a photograph of herself on Instagram in which she made a dig at Teddy, saying she was sick of cleaning the house alone. The couple had been unusually quiet on each other’s social posts before reports surfaced that they were having “crisis talks” about their relationship.

Announcing their split, Teddy said “Everything you have been reading in the press is false. I have had nothing but love and respect for Faye since we first met. I do not wish to comment on rumours speculating our relationship and ask for you to respect our privacy at this time. Love Teddy.”

Breaking up is never easy, but doing so in the public eye can make things even more difficult. Teddy and Faye aren’t the first Love Island couple to go their separate ways, and they surely won’t be the last. Nevertheless, it’s good to see that Teddy is starting to feel more like himself again and is starting to enjoy life after the break-up.


In conclusion, Teddy Soares’ journey of self-discovery has been a truly inspiring one. Despite facing heartbreak and the end of his relationship with Faye Winter, he has found the courage to step out of his shell and embrace the world around him. By taking on new challenges and exploring different aspects of his personality, Teddy has shown us that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself and pursue your dreams. So let’s raise a glass to Teddy Soares, as he continues to navigate life’s ups and downs with grace, resilience, and a newfound sense of confidence.
