Liam Reardon reveals he broke up with Millie Court
The 23-year-old reality TV star - who won 'Love Island' with Millie, 26 - revealed he ended their year-long relationship because he needed to focus on himself.
Speaking on 'Celebs Go Dating', Liam said: "In the villa everything was stripped back, you've just got each other, and I fell in love with Millie, and we just went from strength-to-strength.
"I moved straight from Wales to Essex to be with Millie, leaving all my family and friends.
"The life I did have is almost not there. It's been a rollercoaster, I went from a small life in Wales, being a bricklayer - to being catapulted into this new life and I found it difficult.
"You're trying to give 100 per cent to each other, you're trying to give 100 per cent to yourself, you're trying to give 100 per cent to this new life and career and it's hard to juggle everything at once.
"I instigated it because if we want to be together, I want to be 100 per cent together.
"For me to love her, I need to love myself and for the past few months I need to find myself a bit again.
"Just never say never, in the future we could rekindle."
And, Liam admitted that Millie was devastated over their split.
He said: "Yeah, upset...upset. Like I was.
"You know it's one of those things, you've had such an amazing experience together and you don't want it to end, it's a tricky one."
Liam previously explained the timing was not right for him and Millie but he didn't rule out a reconciliation in the future.
He said: "I don't know, you don't know what will happen in the future.
"All I know she is a lovely person; she makes a great girlfriend, but our timing right now wasn't right for us.
"So, who knows what's going to happen in the future."
