Love Island star Arabella Chi has aimed a thinly veiled dig at Manchester City defender Ruben Dias following their sudden break up.
The couple met in September through mutual friends and were seen jetting off to Portugal together on New Year's Day.
However, Dias reportedly called things off a few days later and Chi has been heartbroken ever since.

She's since returned to Love Island for this year's 'All Star' edition. Previous contenders have descended to Cape Town, South Africa in a bid to find love.
Chi spoke to The Sun before jetting to South Africa and appeared to call out Dias for the way things panned out.
She said: "Last year was probably my unluckiest when it came to finding the one. I’ve been so unlucky in love.

"I’ve dated people I thought at the time were the one, which was a mistake I’ve since learnt from."
Dias and Chi's relationship had been kept private until they were pictured at the Eifel Tower together.
The Portgual international is a private person and didn't want details of their relationship leaking.
Friends have said Chi was 'blindsided' by the split. The model continued: "What I’ve learnt from dating last year is that you think you know someone but you don’t know them at all.

"I dated people that perhaps, looking back, weren’t best suited to me."
Dias joined City from Benfica in a £60 million transfer in 2020. He's become one of the world's best defenders, winning three Premier League titles, the Carabao Cup, the FA Cup and the Champions League.
Last week, Dias was named in the FIFPro Men's World 11 alongside teammates Kyle Walker, John Stones, Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland.
"It definitely feels special," Dias admitted when receiving the award alongside Walker inside London's iconic Hammersmith Apollo venue.
"I guess how many players we ended up having in this World XI expresses how successful the season was.

"We just have to keep the focus and keep pursuing more and more trophies because in the end that’s what allowed this to happen.
"Obviously it’s very special to be here for such a special award. But none of it could happen without what we won as a team and that is - and will be - the most important thing."
City were last in action on January 13 when they defeated Newcastle United 3-2.
Pep Guardiola's side next play against Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Cup fourth round on Friday evening.
