Portuguese Footballer Ruben Dias Dumped Love Island Star and Model Girlfriend Arabella Chi
Star of Love Island Arabella Chi has signed to return to the TV villa and look for a new partner after being dumped by football player Ruben Dias.
When the Manchester City star, 26, gave the 32-year-old model the boot when she returned from a New Year’s vacation, she was devastated.
Arabella had been dating the Portuguese defender since September, and she would go back and forth between her Ibiza home and Manchester to be with him.

But when she appears this weekend on ITV’s Love Island All Stars series, she will now be treating her broken heart in Cape Town, South Africa.
2019 saw Arabella rise to popularity in Series 5, but since then, she has been associated with big names, including Leonardo DiCaprio, at parties.
She got to know Dias through common friends in September of last year, and the two had a discreet relationship going on for a few weeks until November, when curious onlookers noticed them exchanging identical photos of the Eiffel Tower.

Back then, a source stated: “They went to Paris for their first romantic mini-break, where he wined and dined her at all the best restaurants. He also showered her with gifts.
“Rúben and Arabella are trying to keep their relationship under wraps because it’s early days. But they had the best time together in Paris and seem to be really falling for each other.”

On New Year’s Day, the couple was last spotted together when they were photographed arriving at Manchester Airport and checking their bags in for their flight.
After dating model Danny Williams during her time on Love Island, Arabella spent nine months with Wes Nelson, another Love Islander.
Richie Akiva, the billionaire nightclub owner and close friend of Leonardo DiCaprio, and Arabella had an affair this summer.

Prior to joining Man City for £65 million in 2020, Rúben was connected to dancer Ginevra Festa.
A romance with 24-year-old artist April Ivy came to an end in 2021. According to Portuguese media, the reason behind the couple’s breakup was Rúben’s “more discreet” lifestyle as opposed to April’s “exuberant” one.
