Love Island Australia 2025 left us with a burning question: Are Jaide and Jotham still going strong? Their journey was a rollercoaster, and we're about to dive into the details.
Jaide and Jotham's romance began in the Villa, where Jotham, the 22-year-old NFL star, found himself in a series of passionate connections. But it was Jaide, 23, who captured his heart during their time in Hotel Amor. Their return to the Villa with Jaide on his arm sent shockwaves through the entire show.
Since then, the couple has been inseparable, but here's where it gets controversial...
In a recent interview with 9Entertainment, Jaide revealed that their relationship didn't survive the transition back to real life. She confirmed that she and Jotham had called it quits just a week after returning from Spain.
Jaide explained, "He had this other situation he went back to. I was completely blindsided. I never expected that, and it left me frustrated and confused. I wondered why he even joined Love Island and why he made things so intense with me."
Their break-up story is a heart-wrenching one, and you can read all about it here.
During the finale episode, the Islanders had a chance to meet their partner's families virtually. Jaide was both excited and nervous to meet Jotham's mum and brother, fearing they might put her through the wringer.
The couple discussed their future, considering moving and even trying a long-distance relationship. Jaide, based in Sydney, and Jotham, on the Gold Coast, planned to spend the rest of the year apart to see how things progressed.
