PLENTY of couples have been feeling the strain during the lockdown measures in force across Britain at the moment – and celebrities are no exception.
Several star couplings have bitten the dust in recent weeks, with Love Islanders among the hardest hit. Here, we run down some of the biggest celeb pairings who crumbled during the crisis…

Wes Nelson & Arabella Chi
They might be one of the best-looking couples Love Island has ever produced – but they couldn’t last lockdown.
The Sun Online revealed that Wes, 22, and Arabella, 28, split after nine months together this month with him moving out of their home rather than isolating together.
He went to stay with old villa pal Josh Denzel and his girlfriend with the trio spotted cheerfully doing their daily exercises together in London.

Chris Hughes & Jesy Nelson
Love Island’s Chris, 27, and Little Mix star Jesy, 28, broke up while isolating in separate homes.
Earlier this month, The Sun Online revaled that the couple had called it quits after dating for more than a year.
And because of the coronavirus crisis, the pair – who had been discussing marriage not long before the split – had to break up over the phone.

Georgia Steel & Callum Izzard
Ibiza Weekender star Callum wound up having to leave the Essex flat he shared with Ex On The Beach’s Georgia during lockdown.
The reality pair had set their sights on marriage just a month after they started dating last year – but The Sun Online revealed last week those plans had bitten the dust.
A source explained: “They were recently flat hunting in Manchester together, but it’s been called off. Georgia is now planning to move up to Manchester alone.”

Kady McDermott & Myles Barnett
Love Island’s Kady and Towie’s Myles are having a time-out from one another while the health crisis rages on.
The Sun Online revealed the pair are “taking a break” – despite spending thousands of pounds transforming their bungalow into a four-bedroom house.
A source told us: “They decided to go their separate ways while isolating, but are hoping to get things back on track and move into the new place together.”

Shane Lynch & Sheena White
Boyzone star Shane admitted that he isn’t currently living with his wife during the corona crisis – but hopes they will get back together once lockdown lifts.
Speaking on Paul Danan’s Mornng After podcast, he explained: “We have had difficult times and are going through difficult times right now in this isolation thing.
“I’m not even in my family home right now because me and her were at each other’s throats. It wasn’t a good time or a good space.”
