Love Island’s Amber Gill sparks romance rumours with stunning influencer as the pair make their ‘hard launch’ after split from Jen Beattie

Amber Gill has sparked romance rumours after posing with a stunning influencer after her split from ex girlfriend Jen Beattie last year. 

The Love Island winner, 26, appeared to cosy up with Nakita Johnson after the pair made their Instagram debut together at a Colour Wow hair event. 

The couple posed together with their arms around the each other, as Amber looked intently into her eyes. 

Nakita captioned the snap: ‘Hard launch @ambergill’ alongside a red heart eyed emoji as the two stunners wowed in their glamorous ensembles. 

Reposting the picture, Amber gushed: ‘the best dinner guest to sit next to’. 

Amber looked sensational in a strapless black mini dress while she styled her curls in a long braids. 

Meanwhile Nakita, who boasts over one million followers on Instagram, showcased her ample cleavage in a velvet black dress adorned with silver detailing. 

MailOnline have contacted Amber’s representatives for comment. 

Amber split from her previous girlfriend Arsenal star Jen Beattie last December, after they called it quits on their 11-month romance after growing apart but they still remain friends and continue to follow each other on social media.

Amber and Jen’s relationship was the reality star’s first public dating experience since she opened up about her sexuality, saying that it was ‘painfully obvious’ she ‘liked girls’ during her appearance on the ITV2 show.

In May, Amber professed her love for the Scottish defender, 32, on Instagram while celebrating Jen’s birthday after telling her 2.6million fanbase that she’s always been ‘free-spirited’ and not to use ‘labels.’

A source close to the exes told MailOnline: ‘Amber and Jen have decided to end their relationship.

‘They remain good friends and the split was amicable but they just grew apart after struggling to spend time together.

‘There’s still a lot of love between them and Amber will always hold a special place in her heart for Jen but ending their romance was the best decision for their lives right now.’

Amber won Love Island in 2019 alongside ex Greg O’Shea but the pair split weeks after leaving the villa. 

The Geordie has spoken about coming out saying the reaction from her following has been ‘overwhelmingly positive’ although she feels ‘queer women in relationships’ aren’t always taken ‘seriously.’

Speaking on MTV’s Queerpiphany, Amber said: ‘It’s very frustrating… I have to be really considered about everything I say and I’m not.’

She reflected on the moment she ‘accidentally came out’ on X, formerly known as Twitter, while talking about ‘switching teams’ being the best thing she has ever done.

As the first former winner of Love Island, which is a straight dating show, to come out as gay, Amber says that she has faced some criticism because people don’t believe her story.

She added: ‘They think I’m an attention seeker and say I’m trying to find this new thing… I am so not an attention seeker. I knew it was going to happen because Love Island is such a straight show.’
