Love Island’s Lana Jenkins is leggy in a cream mini dress

Love Island’s Lana Jenkins was seen on Friday for the first time since her divorce from Ron Hall after three months together.

The makeup artist, 25, put on a leggy display in a cream mini dress as she went shopping and drinks in Manchester amid the turmoil in her love life.

The couple, who met earlier this year during the show’s winter season, ended their romance after struggling with the distance between them and their increasingly hectic work schedules.

Lana lives in Manchester while Ron lives in Essex and despite their best efforts, they couldn’t find a way to make their relationship work in the long run.

While out and about, Lana looked in good spirits and showed off her toned and tan pins in a knitted mini dress with a tie and thigh-skimming design.

She increased her height with white platform shoes and carried a colorful tote bag over her shoulder.

Lana wore her blonde locks up and added a pop of color with a red lip as she beamed away.

Ron became the first visually impaired contestant to play on Love Island and told MailOnline ahead of his appearance on the ITV dating show that he hoped to find a partner who could also be his best friend.

They finished in second place at the show’s final in March after being beaten for the £50,000 prize by winners Sanam Harrinanan and Kai Fagan, who are still in a relationship.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Lana and Ron have really put everything into their romance and have been trying to pull it off for a while now.

“Unfortunately they have decided to part ways, a decision they made amicably and of course they still remain good friends.

“The commute from Manchester to Essex and back when they wanted to spend time together, and managing their work commitments just proved too difficult.”

Lana and Ron, 25, met on the winter series of Love Island, the first season hosted by Maya Jama.

They were paired together from the start and despite being turned heads by newcomers to the villa, the couple would always gravitate back to each other.

Ron shared a photo of him vacationing with Lana last week, captioning the upload “Te Amo,” which means I love you in Spanish.

Lana responded by posting a love heart emoji, but behind the scenes, the pair struggled to make their romance work.

In March, it was reported that Lana and Ron’s romance was already “on the rocks” after they had a huge argument on the plane flying home from South Africa.

The couple confirmed to Maya on Aftersun that their argument was due to Ron having “too much to drink” and Lana having to take care of him.

Before becoming famous on Love Island, Ron told MailOnline that he hoped to change the public’s perception of a stereotypical “Essex boy” and show that he was looking for true love in the villa.

He said: “The boys from Essex have a bad reputation for being quite toxic and this player idea, but that’s what sets me apart and makes me different because my parents gave me such a beautiful upbringing and they taught me morals.”

“Hopefully I am much more authentic, caring and respectful. I hope that side will catch up to Essex’s bravado.’

Ron added, “I want someone I don’t have to try my best to talk to all the time.

“I need to chat with someone I can talk to for hours like they’re my best friend and that’s the dynamic I want in a relationship.”

“From 18-23, I didn’t really have a lot of emotions when it came to letting myself be loved or opening myself up to a relationship. Now that I’m an adult, I want to show more of that side and be more vulnerable.’
