Love Island stars Lucinda Strafford and Zac Nunns: The real reason why the loved-up couple parted ways

Love Island is the place to make or break your love dreams. You either get on the show and come out with long-lasting love in your arms like Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague or you get someone just for long enough until your next partner or in this case, next opportunity!

Lucinda Strafford rose to fame from the 2021 series of ITV’s dating reality show. After failing to find love in the villa and rekindling romance with her footballer ex-boyfriend Aaron Connelly, Lucinda decided to give Love Island Australia a go last year.

Love Island’s Lucinda and Zac have split

After last year’s Winter Love Island where Jessie Wynter entered as an Aussie bombshell, getting islanders from different versions of the show became normal for the franchise. The 24-year-old went on the show last year and didn’t expect to walk out from the show with a boyfriend but Zac Nunns happened.

Reportedly, the hunk checked all her boxes and she was ‘besotted’ and desperate to make her long-distance work. However, it looks like things haven’t worked out for the couple as well as they hoped. According to MailOnline, Lucinda and Zac have parted ways just months after meeting on the Australian version of the show.

Reportedly, the star dumped Zac to ‘pursue opportunities on Love Island: All Stars.’ An insider had revealed that Zac is ‘heartbroken’ over the devastating breakup after he planned to move in with Lucinda in the UK. The pair are no longer following each other on Instagram with Lucinda already removing all traces of their time together from the social media site. Meanwhile, Zac still has some posts with Lucinda left on his Instagram.

Lucinda Strafford and Zac Nunns planned to move in together

Of all the couples who met on Love Island Australia 2023 - Lucinda - who once flirted with Tobey Maguire at Coachella thinking he was a British footballer - and Zac were together the longest after becoming the runners-up on the show. The couple planned to move in together after travelling to Paris and Portugal, reports 9Entertainment.

Zac said:

After the show wrapped up, I went straight to the UK with Lucinda, then we went to Paris, Portugal and travelled around the UK together. We had the best time.

Eventually, I'm going to move in with Lucinda in the UK.

Unfortunately things didn't work out and Zac has planned.
