Despite drama in the house, the single mum has enjoyed life after the dating show, and she surprised her followers on social media when she posted a snap of herself and co-star Clayton.
Monique looked stunning as she posed next to Clayton, and the pair had their arms round each other's waists. “@claytonbyfield, you are another rib in my cage!”, she cryptically captioned the photo, prompting her fans to go wild in the comments.

“Aww, we are not together but he is the absolute best hooman!” she sweetly replied. Her fans weren’t put off by her denial, and encouraged the couple to go on a date.

Monique won over viewers during her time on the ITV dating showDuring the show, Monique was involved in a love triangle with Martin H and Martin M – neither romances were meant to be, and she parted ways with both potential matches.
Taiya quizzed Martin M over her intentions towards her mum, after he admitted he was interested in Tollulah while still with Monique.
“I just wanted to make sure it came from a genuine place, you know? And it wasn't just because you were physically attracted to my mum,” she explained. Martin admitted he was “physically attracted” to Monique, but insisted his feelings for Taiya’s mum were genuine.
“That one chat where you bond and see what's happening... And then me and your mum had a conversation and we just clicked within five minutes. It all kinda fell into place and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't physically attracted to her because I am as that's very important to me, too,” he confessed.
