Love Island's Anna Vakili has revealed she has split from her boyfriend again after dating for four years. 

The Love Island star, 36, who shot to fame on series five of the ITV2 dating series in 2019, admitted they have had a very on and off relationship and broke up two months ago. 

Anna and her sister Mandi, 34, both keep the identities of their partners private with Anna calling her boyfriend Cowslick.  

Speaking on their podcast Sisters in the City, Anna revealed: 'I'm here to break it to you that me and Cowslick have broken up and…'

However, Anna didn't seem upset as she and Mandi burst out laughing.  

Attempting to clarify why they found the situation funny, Mandi said: 'I don’t know if you understand how long I’m waiting for this day. So basically, there were so many reasons why Anna didn't like…announce it.

The Love Island star, 36, who keeps the identities of her partner private calling him Cowslick, admitted they have had a very on and off relationship and broke up two months ago

'She couldn't be a***ed with everyone saying, 'Yeah right.' I wouldn't be able to handle that as well if I was Anna, especially when you're going through it yourself.'

 Anna added that she is not upset by the split as they split in September, 'But I wasn't going through it, that's the weirdest thing,' she said. 

'As we're recording this, it's seven weeks post-break up, and in this space of seven weeks, guys, I have not shed one tear!' 

Anna previously split with Cowslick in March 2025 before getting back together four months later in the July. 

In March this year, Anna revealed the couple had suffered a devastating miscarriage, just days after discovering she was expecting her first child. 

The pharmacist said she and her boyfriend Cowslick, were both left heartbroken by the loss. 

Speaking on her and sister Mandi's podcast she recalled waking up in the early hours of the morning, amid the couple's romantic trip to the Cotswolds, to discover she was bleeding. 

She said: I was just like: "What’s going on?" I don’t know anything about pregnancies and I was like: "What does this mean?".

Anna explained that after researching the internet she learned some blood loss can be normal, but was so concerned she had no choice but to wake her boyfriend. 

She eventually went back to sleep, hoping there was nothing to worry about, before waking again to discover 'so much' more blood: 'That’s when I knew, from reading the symptoms and if it’s clotted, it’s most likely a miscarriage'

An emotional Anna continued: 'It’s like I had two big shocks in the space of like a week, the first was finding out that I was pregnant and the second shock was having a miscarriage.'

'And I didn’t know what to do, I was crying so much in the hotel in the Cotswolds, crying and screaming and really upset. And Cowslick was so upset, we were both really upset.'
