Former Love Island contestant Megan Moore has posted a cryptic message about self-worth on social media, just weeks after confirming her split from fellow Islander Dejon Noel-Williams.
A Cryptic Message Post-Split
On Sunday night, the 26-year-old influencer shared a quote to her followers that read: 'Normalize saying 'I deserve better' because you absolutely do.' The lengthy post encouraged repeating the phrase 'like a mantra' and not letting 'fear or doubt' hold one back from claiming the 'love, respect and happiness' they deserve. The share comes in the wake of her breakup with 27-year-old athlete Dejon, which was confirmed just days before Christmas.
The End of a Seven-Month Romance
The pair, who first met on the summer series of the hit ITV2 show, parted ways at the start of December following a series of arguments while on holiday. They had been one of the show's most enduring couples, staying together from the start until they were dramatically dumped by their fellow Islanders just one day before the TV final.
Dejon broke the news on his Instagram Story, stating it was with 'great sadness' that he announced their separation after almost seven months together. He cited the difficulties of navigating a relationship after the 'intensity of the villa', compounded by life in the public eye and his work as a personal trainer launching a new business.
Megan echoed the sentiment, saying she was 'truly gutted' to confirm the end of their relationship and thanking fans for their support throughout her Love Island journey.
Life After the Villa: Trolls and New Ventures
The breakup concludes a challenging period for the couple, particularly for Dejon, who faced significant trolling and even death threats after leaving the villa. He was forced to turn off comments on his social media profiles following a wave of hateful messages. During the show, viewers had branded him a 'narcissist' for his behaviour, and he was the only contestant that series to break the fourth wall, commenting directly on the cameras and public perception.
Since the show, Dejon has focused on launching his fitness venture, the Vibe Tribe Run Club, which organises weekly runs in central London. Megan had been a supportive partner in this endeavour, even completing her first 5K with the club.
Their split proves that even the strongest villa connections can struggle under the pressures of reality TV fame and the scrutiny of the public eye.
