"Devo to hear Molly and Zach are no more," another echoed. While a third shared: "Nooooooo not Molly and Zach!!! I loved them."
Molly and Zach soared to fame on Love Island in 2023, where their relationship was put to the test in the iconic ITV2 villa. After finishing as finalists, the loved-up couple's relationship seemed like it was going from strength-to-strength with the two enjoying several getaways in recent weeks.

The Love Island finalists posed together at a recent film premiere (Getty)Molly, 22, and Zach, 26, even told The Mirror last month that they were set to make their next relationship milestone after making a villa pact.
The couple were planning on taking part in a skydive in March, which has always been on Molly's bucket list, and the daring activity was to raise funds for the charity Retina UK.
Talking ahead of the skydive, Molly told The Mirror: "It's been on my bucket list for so long! I remember on my 16th birthday, I asked saying I want to do it for my 18th, it never happened!"
Her former beau Zach then quipped: "See, I feel like this one's jinxed me because when we were in Love Island, I remember sitting with her and she went: 'Oh, I'd love to do a skydive one day."
Despite sharing her excitement about the skydive, Molly has now deleted the post about the thrilling five from her GoFundMe page.
Molly and Zach's split also comes after Zach told The Mirror that he hopes to appear on the 2024 series of I'm A Celebrity....Get Me Out Of Here! Love Island fans will recall that Zach has a famous sister, Snoochie Shy, who appeared on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! in 2021, where she was the third star to be eliminated.
Talking about his future plans, Zach exclusively told the Mirror: "I'd definitely love to do some more TV, just sort of figuring out what TV would work. I'd love to do SAS that's something right up my street. My sister was on I'm A Celebrity, I'd love to also do that... little sibling rivalry going on there."
