FBoy Island Australia’s Izaya and Ziara have broken up

Say it isn't so!

FBoy Island Australia 2023 wrapped over a year ago, so we couldn’t blame you if you’re wondering whether golden couple Ziara Rae and Izaya Leota are still together.

Unfortunately for fans, the couple has confirmed that they have split up. Ziara shared the sad news in an Instagram post in early September when a fan asked her if she was still with Izaya.

“Feels odd to say this on here but Izaya and I are not together anymore,” Ziara wrote. “As much as we tried, we couldn’t make the long distance work.

“We both have personal and career responsibilities that halted us both from being able to move states. We have love for each other and are still friends.

“We are so grateful that we met on the show and for the amazing journey afterwards.”

On top of that, Ziara and Izaya have scrubbed all of their recent couple photos from their Instagram grids.

Their split appears amicable, as they still follow each other on Instagram.

When did Ziara and Izaya last confirm that they were still together?

Back in July Ziara and Izaya confirmed to Chattr that they are still together and doing well even though they’re living in different states.

“Despite still navigating long distance and having career pressures we have amazingly managed to protect our special bond we made on FBoy Island,” the couple told Chattr.

“Being young in a long-distance relationship has been challenging for us both emotionally but our love for each other has kept us going strong and we still have such a beautiful connection.”

Izaya is in Queensland and Ziara is in Victoria.

“For now we are still booking flights to see each other as much as we can and FaceTime is our best friend!

“We both learnt so much about ourselves on Fboy Island and have enjoyed life after it. We are so excited to watch and see what Season Two has in store!”

When did Ziara and Izaya get together?

Filming for Fboy Island Season One finished at the beginning of March 2023, meaning that at the time of the finale, the couple had been official for just over three months.

“We’ve been so excited,” Ziara told Chattr prior to the finale being aired.

“Obviously, we haven’t done anything like the normal boyfriend/girlfriend would do. We haven’t been to restaurants or movies, nothing like that.”

Once the final verdict was announced, the couple came off the island and essentially started their relationship from scratch.

“We came off the island and it was like, ‘What is your favourite colour?’ We just completely jumped the gun because you’re in this completely different environment where emotions are so high,” she admitted.

“So we’ve just been using the time to really get to know each other and spend as much time together as possible and I am so excited to be able to show him off finally.”

Ziara told Izaya she loved him BEFORE the finale

During the finale, Izaya told Ziara that he loved her which was super cute and unexpected for us, but apparently not for his bae.

“I was so nervous,” Izaya explained following the finale airing.

“Because she said it to me the night before. So, I was like, ‘This is what I needed’. Because leading up to it, I felt like I have to be out there. You know, express how I feel. So when she said it to me first, I was kind of like, wow, I’ve been waiting for this.”

But the cuteness doesn’t stop there. In fact, the minute Izaya spotted Ziara, he knew she was the one for him.

“As soon as she walked out, I was just pouring everything I had straight to her. When she came out in the blue dress walking down, I was like this is the one.

“I really need her to notice me. So when she pointed me out I was like, this is it. This is life intertwining. She’s the one!”

Ziara was never going to choose the runners-up

For those of you who thought Ziara might not see the light and choose Cory Brown (or Caleb Duncan for that matter), you’d be mistaken, because simply put. She was always going to pick Izaya.

When asked if she ever found out the truth behind Cory’s age, she said: “No no to be honest, like I don’t care. I knew my winner from the get-go. It was more just me going through the motions so I never really figured it out.

“You know if it was him [Izaya] lying about his age, then I would have been like get me your passport!”
