Megan Barton Hanson needed to "block" Wes Nelson out after their heartbreaking split.
The ‘Love Island’ star – whose relationship with Wes ended six months after they met on the ITV dating show – admitted it’s still "too fresh", and so she made the decision to "cut him off" to give herself the best chance of moving on.
Speaking on ‘Heart Breakfast’, she said: "We’re not talking. I think it’s hard when you break up because we got on so well and it wasn’t like we had done anything to each other – it was just circumstance and age and priorities.
"So for me I had to just cut him off to be able to heal and move on. It’s hard… It’s just too fresh right now. It’s not malicious but I just needed to be strong and just block him for a while – so there are times when you do go back to your flat and you’re lonely it’s like ‘oh his number’s here shall I text him’.
"Well I need to just be strong – it’s nothing malicious. I think in the future we’ll be really good friends but right now it’s so fresh."
Meanwhile, the 24-year-old beauty also revealed her plans to move away from reality television and explore other options in her career.
She explained: "I want to get in to more presenting, like I love what Stacey Dooley does and I think I’ve had such an interesting past and I love to speak about mental health and working in the sex industry and stuff like that.
"So I want to do more serious – my days of reality are done."
She has even ruled out the possibility of appearing on the likes of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ or ‘Dancing On Ice’.
She laughed: "’Dancing on Ice’? Could you imagine me? I can’t even dance let alone on ice. No."
Tune in to ‘Heart Breakfast’, weekdays from 6am – 9am.
