Love Island’s Jessy Potts opened up about her split from Joey Essex during an Instagram Q&A on Friday.
The bombshell, 25, and the former TOWIE star, 34, ended their relationship just seven weeks after leaving the Love Island villa together.
Jessy quickly responded: ‘Absolutely!
“It was the best thing I have ever done in my life, without a doubt.
“I’ve had a lot of fun doing it, I’ve had amazing opportunities since leaving the villa and, even though it didn’t work out on the outside, I met someone I liked and had the best summer of my life with an amazing group of people.”
The ITV2 stars, who met on the latest series of the reality dating show, confirmed the split over the summer, with Joey insisting he hopes to remain friends with Jessy.
The couple said they “tried to make their relationship work” but after leaving the show “it just wasn’t meant to be.”
Joey recently spoke out for the first time since they announced the news and revealed what happened between the couple.
When asked by Goss.ie about the launch of Iconic Bronze’s latest tanning range, the reality TV icon replied: “Unfortunately, we’ve just parted ways.” Wish you all the best.’
Joey was also asked about the possibility of appearing on the second season of Love Island All Stars, which quickly closed.
Jessy has now answered a fan’s question about whether she regretted going on the ITV show.

“I mean not right now,” he confirmed, “that’s definitely not in the works right now.”
Announcing their breakup in September, Joey said The sun: ‘Unfortunately, we have decided to end the relationship, but I hope we can remain friends. I truly wish Jessy the best in everything she does in the future.”
Jessy added: ‘I appreciate the Love Island experience I had with Joey, we tried to make it work but it didn’t.
“I am very grateful to everyone who supported us and I look forward to all the exciting opportunities that await us.”
The couple fell in love during season 11 of Love Island and made it all the way to the grand finale.
But less than two months later, the couple was recently rumored to be “barely speaking” amid their busy schedules.
A source said the sun: ‘Joey and Jessy have barely spent any time together because he’s been too busy doing public address at nightclubs; That’s causing a lot of friction between them.
‘At Ronnie Vint’s Eggiboff event, a lot of people noticed that they barely spoke. Unfortunately, it seems like it’s only a matter of time before they split up.
It comes after Joey broke his silence on his split from Jessy and revealed whether he would be willing to take part in the Love Island All Stars series.
Jessy herself also noted that things had become “difficult” as they tried to move their relationship away from the villa bubble.
She told Heatworld: “We’re organizing when to see each other and I think it’s difficult because you compare him to the other couples.”
Jessy also noted that it would always be “different” for them because Joey was resuming his “normal life” as a celebrity, while she had to learn to deal with her newfound fame.
She added: “They are together 24/7, whereas we always knew it was going to be different because he is catching up with his normal life, while the rest of us are thrown into a new life.”
‘Everything is new and we are waiting for things to emerge. It was always going to be slightly different.
‘We are both making an effort and everyone is speculating that we have broken up. We are solving it.
