Love Island star Tyrique Hyde has hit out at the trolling he's received as he opened up on his relationship "struggles" with Ella Thomas after it was reported that the couple secretly "split up" only three months after the summer edition of the show ended.<\/p>\n

Tyrique, 24, and Ella, 23, were runners-up on this year's series, coming third in the final, under winners Sammy Root and Jess Harding and second place stars Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki. <\/p>\n

While Whitney and Lochan are still going strong, Sammy and Jess called it quits on their relationship in the weeks after leaving the Spanish villa. <\/p>\n

Now Tyrique and Ella's relationship is said to have come under immense strain, as Tyrique declared that the truth of the couple's reality is strictly between them. <\/p>\n

Speaking on Capital Xtra, Tyrique shared: \u201cOur relationship is between us, what goes on behind closed doors, it\u2019s only us two. But people like to put in their little input in the DMs sometimes, in the request on the social media. It\u2019s jarring.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The star went on to say that the amount of trolling he and Ella have received over their partnership is difficult, especially because he's not sure what people are trying to achieve.<\/p>\n

"I don\u2019t know what they\u2019re trying to do, I think they\u2019re just sitting at home with their Twitter fingers going crazy," the footballer commented. <\/p>\n

Tyrique also addressed how "hard" it's been since leaving the villa as Ella is his first ever proper girlfriend. <\/p>\n

"Obviously first relationship is hard because I\u2019m not used to it but it\u2019s going well, I\u2019m enjoying it and I\u2019m learning on the job sort of thing," the star admitted. "But like you said \u2013 a lot of people is involved in it. It\u2019s definitely more difficult when a lot of people are involved in your relationship, especially when it\u2019s your first one.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"I\u2019m a strong guy, I\u2019ll get through it," the reality TV star added. <\/p>\n

In the wake of Jess and Sammy's split after the villa, Ella weighed in on how she compares hers and Tyrique's relationship in October, insisting that it didn't make her "feel any type of way". <\/p>\n

She also explained that part of the reason she believes her and Tyrique can face their problems and make things work is down to them always being "compatible". <\/p>\n

"Even if not for Love Island, he\u2019s the type of guy I would date on the outside," Ella said at the time. "I\u2019m the type of girl he would date on the outside. We always knew it was going to make sense when we got out anyway.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cOther people, it\u2019s like you kind of meet in there and form something in the bubble, but when you get into the real world it can just be different," the Scottish star added.<\/p>\n

According to reports Ella and Tyrique had struggled to make the distance in their relationship work, so quietly called it quits a while ago. <\/p>\n

While Ella remains in Scotland and Tyrique is based in London, the pair are said to be doing their best to "make it work" once more.<\/p>\n

"Ella and Ty split in secret but got back together and it's been like that for a few weeks now, they are very on and off," a source told the Mail Online.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
