LOVE Island’s Lucinda Strafford has sparked romance rumours with Joey Essex after her ex boyfriend Zac Nunn’s rant and her holiday with a chart-topping DJ.
The 24-year-old, who shot to fame on the ITV2 dating show in 2021, recently returned to the Australian villa to find love.
Lucinda ended up falling for co-star Zac and the pair placed second on the series late last year.
The pair were going from strength to strength, but weeks later it was revealed that they had split.
Weeks later The Sun revealed that Lucinda had moved on with DJ Nathan Dawe.
Lucinda has sent tongues wagging after sharing a snap with Joey from her travels to Dubai.
In the snap former Towie star Joey can be seen wearing a crochet brown shirt and white shorts, while Lucinda is rocking a brown ruched dress.
Fans rushed to the comments section to say the same thing.
One wrote: “Can you imagine these two together.”
“You and joey 
,” another added.
A third chimed in: “You & Joey suit 
.”
“I could actually see you and Joey together!!! 
,” a fourth wrote.
It comes after Lucinda looked incredible as she showed off her figure in a tiny bikini in Ibiza.
The reality star’s latest holiday snaps came less than 24 hours after her ex slammed her on social media.
Lucinda reportedly ‘faked’ a split with ex Zac to try and get on Love Island All Stars.
The former couple called it quits back in February.
Sharing an image of them cosied up at the airport, he wrote: “Yes – we were together the whole time. Here’s a polaroid of her leaving.”
Another follower sent a message referring to Lucinda’s rejection from the new series, which read, “Why did she not end up on it did she not get accepted?”
“Never got the call probably because production saw she was with her boyfriend in Australia,” he responded.
The Sun recently revealed that Lucinda has moved on with Nathan Dawe.
A source said: “They’re on holiday together in Dubai right now – it’s early days but they really like each other.”
