Love Island’s Faye Winter responds to romance rumours with Toby Aromolaran 5 months after split from ex Teddy Soares | The Sun
LOVE Island beauty Faye Winter has addressed romance rumours with co-star Toby Aromolaran just five months after she split from ex boyfriend Teddy Soares.
It comes after Faye and Teddy set tongues wagging after they enjoyed a dinner date after filming an episode of his YouTube show back in April.
Faye, 28 and co-star Toby, 24, then appeared together on Love Island's Aftersun last weekend, where she hinted at a new romance.
However, the Devon-based beauty has set the record straight and confirmed there are no sparks flying between her and best pal Toby.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Faye said: "They know me [her ex-Islanders] and Toby are amazing friends – I'm so grateful to come out of the show with the amazing friends that I have made.
"These people saw my whole journey and they love me for me and to come out of the show with the friends that I have, there was a lot of judgement on me but I've always said, unless you are my friend and you want to cast that judgement on me, then I'm not going to listen.

When asked if she and Toby could ever be more than friends, Faye laughed and said: "Absolutely not, that would just be weird. It's so hard because as soon as guys and girls are friends, it's like…you've got to remember Toby was mind and Teddy's friend.
"There would never be anything more than that – I'm just very grateful for him."
The blonde beauty left fans guessing if she had found a new love interest after she hinted at a new romance on Love Island spin-off show Aftersun on Sunday.

But Faye told us: "I just didn't hear the question, it took me a little while to be like what was the question and then it was Toby, he winds me up all the time and said I took ages to answer. I was like 'Toby, don't make this a thing, I just didn't hear the question'.
"Then they were like 'oh, oh that's what you're asking'.
"No romance on the cards, not for a minute. It's just not a part of my life that I'm looking at at the moment.
"It's taken me two years to be seen to be doing good and using my platform for doing good and actually I want to take this time to focus and really align myself with my animal welfare.
"At some point I want to get back into property but I did property 10 years before Love Island, so now was my time to really shine in the animal welfare.
"So campaigns with puppy yoga and campaigns with filler and try and get legislations changed, try and make a difference. I'm just trying to align myself in that."
Faye previously opened up about taking time out of the dating scene to learn to love herself.
The star admitted she is feeling more confident now after moving back home to Devon, surrounded by her loved ones.
She said: "I feel like I'm definitely getting there, I feel like I moved back to Devon – when you're living somewhere and you don't have anyone around you that are your friends or family.
"That's obviously going to take a massive knock on your confidence. I didn't realise as I had never moved out of my hometown, so I didn't realise how much it would affect my confidence, not having that support.
"But now I'm back home, it feels like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders and I feel like I can relax and really be myself again."
It comes after Faye admitted she's struggled with "difficult" days after her heartbreaking break-up with Teddy Soares.
A source told us: “Faye is doing her best to stay super positive – her career is at an all time high and she’s working on a number of projects that are extremely close to her heart. That said, she’s only human and has her good and bad days."
