Awkward!

Less than 24 hours ago, Love Island‘s Samira revealed that she and Frankie had called off their short-lived relationship after videos of him cheating on her were leaked online.

Yes, video footage of the dumped islander kissing another woman in a Kent nightclub while his girlfriend Samira was on a night out in Essex was shared online over the weekend leaving fans of the couple, and no doubt Samira, devasted.

Frankie is said to have told the mystery woman that his relationship with Samira is “just for the cameras” before inviting her back to his hotel room.

Well, just hours after Samira announced their breakup, the pair walked the same red carpet for the movie premiere of The Festival.

Yep, both of them, on the same red carpet, within moments of each other – AW.KWARD!

The pair both looked to be in good spirits considering, with Samira taking a seat next to this year’s runner-ups Laura and Paul and her OG man, Dr Alex.

A spokesperson for Samira said yesterday:

“Samira will be taking some time out from her relationship with Frankie to focus on herself and future work opportunities”.

“They have spoken in depth about the recent events and Samira feels a break, for now, is the best thing for both of them so they can see what the future holds”.

Frankie responded a short time later with his own statement released through a spokesperson, that read:

“Frankie and Samira have both decided to take a break from their relationship and focus on themselves for now.

“They have decided to remain civil and have some space apart to decide on what they want to do. Frankie wholeheartedly knows that his actions were not acceptable and has apologised to Samira.

“At this moment in time having their own space is most important.”
