MAYA Jama’s ex-boyfriend Ruben Dias appears to be moving on from their split as he sets his sight on a new romantic interest.
And the Manchester City footballer, 29, controversially seems to be pursuing a connection with a fellow star from within the Love Island family.
This week Ruben followed Joanna Chimondes on Instagram, the season 5 stunner who appeared on screens back in 2019 and returned for All Stars in 2024.
Tellingly, Joanna, 29, has followed the Premier League player back on the social media platform – so watch this space.
The Sun has reached out to representatives of Ruben and Joanna for comment.
Joanna is earned a spot in the Love Island history books when she stole the affection of scouser Michael Griffiths during Casa Amor – when he was coupled up with Amber Gill.
The fireman returned to the main villa with Jo, much to Amber’s disgust who branded her villa rival ‘a dead ting’ upon learning of the betrayal.
Joanna and Michael’s romance didn’t go the distance though, as she was booted from the villa separately with Michael controversially deciding to stay.
It seems Ruben has a thing for Love Island stars having dated stunning host Maya, 31, for 18 months before The Sun exclusively revealed their split last month.
The pair first began dating in December 2024 after meeting at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Manchester the month prior.
Their relationship is understood to have ended before Maya jetted off to Scotland to film Celebrity Traitors and ahead of all new Love Island.
Ruben was accused of following women online whilst loved-up with Maya Jama and sending seedy late night requests to influencers on Instagram.
Known as “toe dipping” – fans allege Ruben has a habit of following a woman in the evening, then unfollowing them the next day.
Post break-up, the football ace has also been linked to his actress ex Daniela Melchior.
In May the defender was cheered on by Daniela in the crowd of Portugal‘s World Cup qualifier with Chile, winning 2-1.
He’s also liked snaps of his ex online – cuddling an inflatable alien, and wearing a sexy leopard print dress.
