Love Island star Arabella Chi has rubbished talk of a short-lived romance with Premier League footballer Vinícius Souza, amid claims they have split.

It was reported last month that Arabella, 33, was seeing Brazilian sportsman Vinícius, 24, just two weeks after her split from her Love Island All Stars co-star Adam Maxted.

Reality personality Arabella was spotted going for coffee with the Sheffield United midfielder at the end of March but subsequently denied any romance after The Sun reported they have already gone their separate ways.

A source confirmed the couple were never romantically involved when contacted by MailOnline on Sunday.

Arabella has now joined celebrity dating app Raya, sprinkling her profile with bikini snaps while stating that she is visiting London from Spanish party island Ibiza.

It was reported last month that Arabella, 33, was seeing Brazilian sportsman Vinícius, 24, after they were spotted going for a coffee date

She had listed exclusive London haunt Soho Farmhouse as one of her favourite hangouts.

A source told The Sun on Sunday: ‘Arabella is loving her new single status since leaving the Love Island villa and has been ­catching up with pals in the capital.

‘She is also hoping to have a few dates while in the UK and is hoping to find someone on the app to whisk her off her feet.’

In photos obtained by The Sun last month, Arabella and Vinícius looked in good spirits as they went down an escalator together after their date.

An insider said at the time: ‘Arabella and Vinicius were spotted enjoying a cosy coffee date during the day and he waited with her until she met a friend.

‘They are just getting to know each other but really get on. They are trying to keep things on the down low – Arabella is worried people will think she’s just with him because he’s a footballer.’

Vincius joined Sheffield United in August last year after signing a four-year deal.

It comes after Arabella and Adam split just five weeks after they left the Love Island All Stars villa.

Prior to Adam, Arabella dated Manchester City centre-back Ruben and branded the romance ‘a mistake’ after they split

The model and the Irish professional wrestler, 31, failed to meet up even once after their fellow Islanders voted them out two days before the final.

A source told The Sun: ‘They genuinely tried to make it work but every time they arranged to meet up, work got in the way. They’re going to stay friends.’

Their split reveal comes after fans accused the pair of faking their romance.

The couple had not appeared on each other’s social media since the show, despite both being very active across platforms.

Prior to Adam, Arabella dated Manchester City centre-back Ruben and branded the romance ‘a mistake’ after they split.

The pair were seen jetting off on holiday together as they arrived at Manchester Airport on New Year’s Day, having been at the centre of romance rumours since September last year.

However, Ruben reportedly dumped Arabella soon after they returned to the UK, leaving her free to find love on All Stars.

She later spoke out about her relationships over the last 12 months, saying she thought she’d found ‘the one’.

Arabella told The Sun on Sunday: ‘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.’

She added: ‘What I’ve learnt from dating last year is that you think you know someone but you don’t really know them at all.

‘I dated people that perhaps, looking back, weren’t best suited to me.’
