Pair started dating in September 2023Broke up after New Year vacationHeading in different directionsWHAT HAPPENED?

The pair jetted off on a New Year break together, as they were last spotted heading to Portugal on January 1, but a parting of ways was confirmed shortly after. Dias and Chi had been a couple since September 2023, having met through mutual friends, and kept their relationship hidden for several weeks before being spotted together in Paris at the Eiffel Tower.

Chi is still coming terms with that separation, and has told of finding herself back in the dating game: “Last year was probably my unluckiest when it came to finding the one. I’ve been so unlucky in love. I’ve dated people I thought at the time were the one, which was a mistake I’ve since learnt from.”

THE GOSSIP

She added, as friends claim that the 32-year-old model was left “totally blindsided” by her dumping from Dias: “What I’ve learnt from dating last year is that you think you know someone but you don’t really know them at all. I dated people that perhaps, looking back, weren’t best suited to me.”

She went on to say of returning to television screens in the Love Islands All Stars show: “I might have recently come out of a relationship but I’m ready to meet the man of my dreams. I don’t think there has ever been a better time after the dating mistakes I made last year.”

Following his split from Chi, Dias is now focused on footballing matters in Manchester. City have been enjoying a winter break on the back of their thrilling 3-2 victory over Newcastle, but will return to action on Friday when facing Tottenham in the FA Cup fourth round.
