Tyla Carr has split from her boyfriend Rossco Edmonds – seven months after giving birth to their first child together.
The former ‘Love Island’ star – who enjoyed a short-lived romance with Mike Thalassitis on the ITV2 show – took to Instagram to reveal she is "recently single" and admitted she hasn’t spoken about the break up before because it is an "awful situation".
She wrote: "I am recently single, I’ve been super quiet because I’m really not sure what to say, it’s an awful situation, but I will explain a few things in good time."
Tyla shared a picture of herself on a rare night out away from her seven-month-old son Archie – at a charity gala dinner in aid of The Brain Tumour Charity – and admitted the evening was "really needed" because it helped her "get away from all the stress".
She wrote: "All my fellow Mums, and even you Dads… when you have a young child, it’s not often you get a night away, get to dress up and leave the sick stained tops at home for the evening It’s not often you get to go out and have a real conversation and leave the baby voice you seem to have forever accumulated at home.
"This night out was really needed so thank you to all my lovely girls (swipe left) (we are missing one very good pregnant friend @hl_london) this night helped me get away from all the stress and just be me for the night. So thank you girls 🙂 (sic)"
But the 26-year-old star admitted she suffered a "pretty bad" hangover the day after, and was feeling grateful for her friends and family.
She added: "However the hangover with @archie.edmonds was really pretty bad, thank God I’m staying at my mums for a while #thankgodformums #thankgodforfriends #love #friends #singlemumlife #scariestthingever ! Anyone else avoiding nights out because they know they’ve got to endure their babies energy levels from like 6am the next morning? (sic)"
Tyla gave birth to Archie in December, and in the same month she and Rossco revealed plans to get engaged.
He said: "I’d like to get engaged. We’ve only been together a year.
"We’re going to concentrate on Archie for the time being, but it’s the next step."
Tyla added: "I’d like to be engaged by the time Archie starts school. I’m not that fussed about actually getting married though."
