It comes shortly after her ex Tyrique Hyde, whom she met on Love Island, took a subtle swipe at her new relationship<\/p>\n

\"Lloyd <\/p>\n

Lloyd was the first one to go public with their romance on May 4, as he uploaded a sweet photo of Ella proudly supporting him as he accepted his club’s Player of the Season award<\/p>\n

This was followed by a snap of herself in the mirror of an elevator as they headed to the\u00a0glitzy event.<\/p>\n

Ella captioned the snaps: ‘Recently,’ with a black heart emoji.<\/p>\n

It comes not long after\u00a0her ex Tyrique, whom she met on Love Island, appeared to take a cryptic swipe at her new relationship.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Following Lloyd’s post, Tyrique took to his own Instagram Stories, sharing a throwback photo of himself in the confessional on Love Island.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the shot, he’s seen beaming at the camera – but the subtitle underneath reads: ‘Nah, I’m very sad, trust me.’<\/p>\n

The timing didn’t go unnoticed by fans, with many believing it was a subtle dig or reaction to Ella’s new relationship reveal.<\/p>\n

In February 2024, MailOnline exclusively revealed Ella and Tyrique had parted ways permanently – after six months as a couple.<\/p>\n

A source told MailOnline: ‘Ella and Tyrique have decided it’s time to go their separate ways.<\/p>\n

‘They have such love for each other, but they often struggle to get along and as viewers saw in the villa, they’re always arguing.’<\/p>\n

Ella and Tyrique came third during their summer series of Love Island, losing out on the top two positions to runners-up Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki and winners Jess Harding and Sammy Root.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year Ella dropped a huge hint that she was reentering the Love Island villa for the ITV spin off All Stars with a series of saucy snaps posted to Instagram.<\/p>\n
