Love Island's Liberty Poole has revealed she doesn't keep in contact with ex-boyfriend Jake Cornish, after the pair left the villa almost a month ago.

The couple, who were together from day one on the show, decided to split days before the Love Island final, subsequently leaving the Island. Since then, it seems like Jake has been absent from a number of post-LI cast gatherings, including the Love Island: Reunion show.

At the time, host Laura Whitmore explained, "So, sadly Jake can't be with us this evening as he isn't feeling very well."

Now, discussing Jake's absence from the Reunion, Liberty has revealed that the pair are no longer in contact every day.

"I do think he was genuinely ill for the reunion," the 22-year-old told The Mirror. "I don’t keep in contact with him every day anymore, obviously we’re exes."

Liberty continued, explaining that while she and Jake are friends, she's not sure how he's doing given the fact that the pair haven't been in touch.

"We’re friends, no bad blood. Hopefully he’s alright but I’m not too sure."

Discussing whether she's looking for another relationship after leaving the villa, Liberty went on to explain, "Not at the moment, at the moment I’m just focusing on myself. We’ll see what happens in the future."

"When I find someone that I gel with in that way I’ll consider it but at the moment it’s not my main focus," she added.

Liberty has previously spoken about why things didn't work out between her and Jake, telling The Sun, "I do actually think his feelings were genuine. I think that the connection was genuine, but things went sour. But I do think he genuinely liked me. But I just was questioning whether obviously he loved me the way I loved him."

Jake, meanwhile, has since hit out at criticism over his split from Liberty, saying, "If people knew what was said that wasn't aired, I think people would believe differently."

We're glad these two are still on good terms.
