Love Island Australia’s Phoebe Spiller has a message for her female fans following her split with long-term boyfriend Mitch Eliot.
Mitch and Phoebe met on Love Island Australia in 2022 and were in a relationship for over two years. They announced their break up on Instagram on July 29, 2024.
Just hours after making their split insta-official, Phoebe took to the platform to criticise her female fans for following Mitch.
“Guys wtf over 100 girls have followed Mitch already, EXCUSE ME FAKE FKN FOLLOWERS u girls are NOT LOYAL,” she wrote.
Although Phoebe quickly deleted the post, influencer watchdog account @keepingupwithaussieinfluencers shared a screenshot and suggested that the new follows were because people wanted to know more about their break up.
“Phoebe’s latest story. She knows that people follow others to be nosey right? Not because they are going to hit on him,” the account wrote.
Love Island’s Phoebe and Mitch’s break-up announcement
Phoebe and Mitch both shared break-up announcements on their respective Instagram accounts.
Phoebe said that she was a “wreck” and “honestly never thought” she’d be writing a breakup announcement.
“Unfortunately Mitch and I have separated,” she wrote.
“As you can imagine, I have been a wreck and not in a good head space as of lately, so I’d really appreciate it if you guys don’t ask questions or make assumptions,” she continued.
“As much as I wanted him to be my forever, we ended up wanting different things. Regardless of that though, I will always love him.”
Mitch penned a similar announcement.
“Unfortunately me and Phoebe have decided after two years that we would go our separate ways,” he began.
“Never thought I’d be one to make a break up post, but I feel like it’s needed so we can focus on getting through this and moving on.”
He then addressed Phoebe directly.
“Phoebe, we fell in love the day we met and from then on you showed me what it’s like to be so bloody loved. You gave me an amazing two years and I can’t thank you enough for that.
“But we need time to grow as our own people. I still love you very very much and will still always be backing you,” Mitch concluded.
Sending lots of love to both of them.
