Reality TV personalities Matilda-June Draper and Roman Hackett have reportedly ended their relationship after a year together. Matilda, who gained recognition following her appearance on Love Island in 2024, began dating Roman during her time around the filming of The Only Way Is Essex. Their relationship quickly became public, with the pair often sharing moments of their life together across social media platforms.

In July last year, the couple took a significant personal step by being baptised together, a decision they described as part of their journey toward overcoming personal struggles, including social anxiety. Their shared faith appeared to strengthen their bond at the time.

However, sources now suggest that in recent months, the relationship had become strained. Despite efforts to make things work, the couple ultimately chose to go their separate ways. It is understood that the split was amicable, with no wrongdoing on either side, and that they remain on friendly terms.

Matilda appeared to hint at the breakup in a recent TikTok post, where she mentioned going shopping to lift her spirits after feeling low. Fans had already begun to speculate, noting that the couple’s last joint appearance online—a skincare promotion shared in February—marked a noticeable change in their usual updates.

Before his relationship with Matilda, Roman had been linked to fellow reality stars Dani Imbert and Ella Barnes. Meanwhile, Matilda’s romance with Roman followed her previous relationship with Sean Stone, which ended after their time on Love Island.

Sean has since returned to the show for its All Stars series and is now reportedly in a relationship with Lucinda Strafford. Despite initial criticism from viewers and fellow contestants, Sean and Lucinda’s relationship appears to have developed positively since the show concluded.

Throughout her relationship with Roman, Matilda frequently shared insights into their life together, including their spiritual journey. In one emotional post following their baptism, she reflected on her personal growth, explaining how her faith helped her navigate challenges with anxiety and transformed her outlook on life.
