Maya Jama cuts final social media ties with ex Ruben Dias after split

Maya Jama breaks the final social media link to her ex-boyfriend Ruben Dias, with both parties now unfollowing each other online following their split earlier this year.

The Love Island presenter and the Manchester City defender ended their 18-month relationship in April, a breakup that was later described as a mutual decision after the couple reportedly “reached a crossroads.”

The latest development comes two months after the split, with Jama recently unfollowing Dias on Instagram. The footballer has also now removed her from his following list, signalling a complete digital disconnect between the pair.

Social Media Unfollows Mark Final Break

The mutual unfollowing has been widely interpreted as the final step in severing online ties between the former couple, who were previously active on each other’s social media profiles throughout their relationship.

Jama and Dias first began dating in December 2024 after meeting at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Manchester the previous month. During their relationship, Jama reportedly relocated from London to a luxury property in Alderley Edge to be closer to the footballer.

Despite the relocation and strong early romance, the pair eventually split earlier this year, with sources previously suggesting their relationship had reached a natural breaking point.

Ruben Dias Linked to Online Activity With Actress Daniela Melchior

The unfollowing comes shortly after Dias was reportedly seen interacting with Portuguese actress Daniela Melchior on social media, with fans noticing that the pair had exchanged likes on Instagram posts.

Melchior, known for her role in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, was previously linked to Dias in early 2024, though neither has publicly confirmed a relationship. Reports suggest the pair may have reconnected following his split from Jama.

However, neither Dias nor Melchior currently follow each other on Instagram, and there has been no confirmation of any renewed romance.

'Toe Dipping' Claims Resurface Around Online Behaviour

Dias has also faced ongoing online speculation in recent years regarding a so-called “toe dipping” pattern, in which he is alleged to follow women on social media late at night before unfollowing them if the attention is not returned.

Screenshots circulating online have previously suggested similar behaviour involving other women, though there is no suggestion of wrongdoing or confirmed relationships linked to these interactions.

The claims remain unverified and have not been addressed in detail by Dias publicly.

Maya Jama Focuses on Career After Split

Since the breakup, Jama has continued to focus on her television career and public appearances, maintaining a strong presence as host of Love Island and other entertainment projects.

Neither Jama nor Dias has publicly commented on the recent social media activity, but the mutual unfollowing suggests both have now formally closed the chapter on their relationship in the public eye.
