They faced an awkward reunion when they both entered the villa as bombshells during the debut episode of Love Island: All Stars.

And now the real reason Callum Jones split from Molly Smith has been revealed, with a new report claiming he became ‘freaked out’ when she wanted to get engaged.

The former couple met when Molly was a Casa Amor bombshell on the 2020 season of Love Island and went on to have a three-year relationship, even moving in together in Manchester.

But after breaking up just six months ago they faced an awkward on-screen reunion when they both shockingly entered the South African villa during the All Stars launch on Monday.

A source told The Sun of their break-up: ‘Basically with Molly coming up to her 30th birthday, things naturally started to feel more serious and she wanted to start looking at the next logical steps in their relationship.’

They continued: ‘It’s not exactly demanding to have expected Callum to be on the same page given they lived together and owned two dogs.

‘But the talk about next steps and getting engaged totally freaked him out and it was like something in his head just disconnected.’

MailOnline has contacted Molly and Callum’s representatives for comment.

During Tuesday’s episode of All Stars Molly pulled her ex for a chat on the couches before they had a heated discussion about their split.

Molly dished the dirt on their split as she told her ex that his ‘level of respect completely diminished’.

She said to Callum: ‘There has been stuff that has happened that, probably, you could have done a bit differently, so conversations will be had.’

As the boys and girls split off to chat, both Callum and Molly opened up on the reason behind their split, as Callum said that they were ‘always clashing’.

As Callum revealed that he thought it was a ‘pointless’ conversation, Molly tried to clear the air and revealed she wasn’t ‘expecting him to check in’ on her months after the split before confirming that their breakup is ‘water under the bridge’.

She then closed the conversation about the separation by explaining to her ex that his ‘level of respect completely diminished’.

But it was Molly who really dished the dirt, as she called Callum ‘disrespectful’ after their relationship broke down, as she told the girls: ‘Honestly, nothing bad happened. We mutually just agreed that we weren’t really getting on.

‘It was very mutual, but literally two weeks after we broke up, he was just doing things that I thought was disrespectful, and I thought he could have handled it a lot better.’

She went on: ‘He apologised on the phone at the time, but then I was getting sent videos, I was getting sent pictures, and I just thought, obviously it’s just annoying. Pull yourself together and have a bit of respect.’

Despite the dispute, viewers flooded X, formerly known as Twitter, begging for the couple to back together and hurry up and ‘get married’.
