Love Island’s Sammy Root declares himself as “very single” right now – after parting ways with his co-star Jess Harding shortly after they left the ITV villa.
The TV star, who won last year’s show, is on “happier terms” with his co-star ex now and is “way past it”. Jess has also now moved on with her new fella, Sam Quinn, who Sammy has a surprising connection with.
He told us: “I can’t remember the last contact we had but like, in terms of talking. We don’t talk now, but if I saw her, I’d always say hello, like there’s no animosity there.

Jess has since shared some loved-up snaps with her new man on social media and first confirmed she was in a new relationship in March during a Q&A on Instagram. Whereas, Sammy revealed he is more than happy being “single Sammy” as he’s been back-to-back busy.
When asked if he had any villa regrets, Sammy revealed he stands by every choice he made – because let’s face it, he might not have won if he had done anything differently!

Sammy added: “I’ve always said before I went into the villa, I’m gonna be completely real and do everything exactly how I would do it. So I have no regrets. So if I changed anything, I wouldn’t have been being me so…”
The handsome star has also been taking part in a grueling fitness regime as he prepares for a hefty 100k marathon. The singleton is raising money for MIND, a cause close to his heart.

Samy told us: “I’ve been training very hard because I’m doing the London 2 Brighton marathon next Sunday, which is 100k, I’m doing it for MIND.
“I’ve been in the gym a lot training for that because my legs are going to die. Then I’ve got a Tough Mudder that I’m doing for MIND as well, it will be hard, but it’s all for a good cause.”
