Did Joanna and Michael date after Love Island?
Not long after being dumped, Joanna appeared on This Morning to say she wouldn’t take Michael back.
But the pair were soon spotted kissing at a London music festival.
At the Love Island reunion, they insisted they were not dating.
However, just a day later they were seen getting cosy at a boozy party.
Why did Joanna and Michael break up?
The pair didn’t last long and talked about their short lived romance on BBC Three show, Eating With My Ex.
Joanna revealed they’d still be together if Michael had left Love Island with her.
However, in hindsight, they both admitted there were never going to be wedding bells.
“After the show we made it clear we just wanted to be friends,” Michael spilled. “We went out a few times in groups, but nothing happened.”
While Joanna said:”Deep down I knew how it was going to end.
“I knew I was going to make that decision but there was a part of me which thought I might still want to be with him; it could go either way.”
When did Joanna Chimonides date Chelsea footballer Ben Chilwell?
Joanna began a relationship with footballer Ben Chilwell in July 2017, whilst she was still studying at university.
However, the footy ace reportedly decided to end the relationship, saying he wanted to remain single for the time being.
After Joanna was announced to appear on Love Island in 2019, reports suggested that Ben was annoyed she was going on the show, despite him dumping her a year prior to her appearance.
A source told The Sun at the time: “Ben has been left furious by her going on the show even though he dumped her at the end of last summer because he wanted to be single.
“They had stayed good friends until when she told him she was going on Love Island.
“She thought Ben was partying too much and he thought she was the right person at the wrong time.”
