Three months into their relationship, they moved in together and ended up spending lockdown together during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In April 2020, it was announced that Wes and Arabella had split, with their six-year age gap cited as part of the reason.

A source told The Sun: "It's all over. They started to grow apart and the age gap became really noticeable between them.

"They want to remain civil with each other and hope to remain friends. There’s been no funny business, no cheating or anything like that, it’s just fizzled out between them."

It doesn't look like Wes will be returning to All-Stars as a bombshell. It looks like his return to the villa was just a one-off for his performance with Craig David.
