Despite becoming the first official boyfriend and girlfriend of series 9, Lana and Ron have sadly parted ways just three months after making it to the finals.

They went from strength to strength when they left the villa and met each others’ families, but long-distance seemed to be too much of a strain on their relationship, with an insider telling this tabloid: "Unfortunately, they have decided to separate, which is a decision they have made amicably and of course, they still remain good friends."

“Commuting from Manchester to Essex and back again whenever they wanted to spend time together, as well as managing their work commitments just proved too difficult," they added.
