Love Island’s Molly Marsh breaks her silence on ’emotional, challenging and deeply personal’ split from boyfriend Zachariah Noble

by

They turned out to be a cherished love story from Love Island, spending two years together and establishing a shared household.

However, Reality TV personality Molly Marsh has openly stated that the breakup with her partner Zachariah Noble was an excellent choice for her, marking the first time she’s spoken out about their split.

At the National Television Awards on Wednesday, Molly, aged 24, from Fake Bake UK, opened up to Daily Mail about the past few months, describing them as an ’emotionally taxing, difficult, and deeply personal‘ period following her split with Zachariah in July.

She shared that dealing with her split from Zach was one of the toughest challenges she’s encountered, a topic she doesn’t often discuss in public.

Going through this experience has been intense, tough, and very much about me personally. Yet, despite its complexity, I maintain that every event serves a purpose – everything happens for a cause.

‘Standing here tonight at the National TV Awards, I feel excited and ready for new beginnings.’

Molly mentioned, “The NTAs are consistently lively events that I eagerly anticipate. It’s a delight to reconnect with my TV companions and spend the evening with our Fake Bake crew.

Molly and Zachariah began their romantic journey in the tenth season of Love Island in 2023. He attracted her interest when she was paired with Mitch Taylor, which subsequently kindled their relationship.

Last year, the couple temporarily parted ways, only to reignite their affection later on. However, it was reported a few months ago that they’ve chosen to call off their relationship once more.

In my perspective, as we moved forward, it turned out to be the wisest choice for both of us to part ways separately. (Molly)

Before the National Television Awards, Molly had kept quiet about her split from Zach in public conversations, except for verifying their relationship’s end on Instagram.

In my own words, I’ve chosen to reserve the specifics about the ending of our relationship, as I believe that life often calls for a certain degree of personal space, especially during periods of transformation.

I wanted to let my supporters know, out of respect for their commitment during the show we worked on together. Now, I am open to finding love and moving forward in this new chapter.

Later, she mentioned that she and her sibling will be jetting off to New York City for a stint in Fashion Week later this week. Following that, they’ll return to their recording studio to work on some fresh tunes.

Molly dazzled in a stunning midnight blue sequined dress, posting photos from her night at the NTAs, showcasing an unforgettable performance.

In March 2024, they parted ways, but by June of the same year, their romantic connection sparked again while on a business trip to Australia.

They seemed deeply fond of each other and decided to live together the past summer; Molly spoke enthusiastically about their wonderful relationship towards the end of last year.

According to her statement to The Sun, they both felt it was necessary to have some time apart, and now, stronger than before, their relationship is thriving following their decision to live together. Their trajectory seems positive.

‘It’s what we needed, it’s going really well.’

Following their initial bond at the Majorcan villa in 2023, Molly eventually left the island when Zac chose bombshell Kady McDermott during a re-grouping process.

Nevertheless, upon her return at Casa Amor, Zachariah, somewhat flustered at first, eventually regained Molly’s affection.

Zachariah, a bit discombobulated initially, successfully rekindled his relationship with Molly following her arrival at Casa Amor.

In the tenth series, they were the pair who placed fourth, yet they endured longer than any other duo from that same season.

2024 marked the end of Tyrique Hyde and Ella Thomas’ romantic journey, while Sammy Root and Jess Harding parted ways in love only a couple of months after exiting the villa.

2025 National TV Awards honored several top television programs, including This Morning, EastEnders, and Gary Lineker, with a gala event held at the O2 Arena in London on Wednesday night, where the best of British TV was celebrated.

30 years on, Joel Dommett hosted the awards that aired live on ITV1, where the winners were chosen by public vote.

Among the unexpected turns of events during the event, it was Gary who broke Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly’s 23-year long reign in the Best Presenter category, a title he secured at the age of 64.

On this occasion, It’s Mornings again that took home the award for Best Daytime show, marking a comeback after a tough loss to The Repair Shop two years ago.

Moreover, Strictly Come Dancing added another title to their collection, winning Best Reality/Talent Show, even amidst a tumultuous year marked by various scandals and disputes.

Following its highly anticipated return during Christmas, the cherished sitcom Gavin & Stacey was awarded the title of Best Comedy. Ruth Jones and Larry Lamb graciously accepted the award on stage.

In a delightful twist, Jeremy Clarkson’s popular series, Clarkson’s Farm, emerged victorious in the ratings. Amidst the celebration, Jeremy playfully jested to the audience that he was now on the weight-loss injection, Ozempic (Mounjaro).

This year, Liz Hurley and Rob Rinder declared that the victor of the Reality Competition is I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! The winner for 2024, the King of the Jungle Danny Jones, was brought onstage to graciously accept the title.

On the same night, Netflix’s Adolescence emerged victorious, as it clinched the title of Best New Drama Series, outperforming Disney+’s competition. Moreover, Owen Cooper, the young talent portraying the complex character Jamie Miller, was recognized with the award for Best Drama Performance.

During a touching instance, soap opera stars Jessie Wallace and Michelle Ryan presented the award for Outstanding Serial Drama Performance to Steve McFadden. Overwhelmed by the recognition for his role in depicting Phil Mitchell’s mental health struggle, McFadden found it difficult to hide his emotions as tears welled up in his eyes.

Moreover, the conclusion of the event saw the Walford cast rejoicing, as they were awarded the prestigious Best Soap Opera title for EastEnders.

The evening began triumphantly for comedian Michael McIntyre, as he claimed the prestigious Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award for his hit show.

This year, Lee Mack’s show, The 1% Club, was named the Best Quiz Show. Throughout the performance, Mack took humorous jabs at Gary.

During this time, the last-ever series of Vera unfortunately didn’t win the title for Best Returning Drama, as that honor went to Call the Midwife on BBC instead.

On that particular evening, Molly-Mae Hague, a previous contestant on Love Island, was celebrating a significant victory as she received the accolade for her authored documentary.

At the event, the popular animated BBC show “Wallace and Gromit” was honored with a distinguished award. Its creator, Nick Park, graciously accepted the prize.

For the second consecutive year, Sam Thompson and Pete Wicks hosted the grand entrance ceremony on the red carpet. They even made an appearance onstage to present an award (the “gong”).
