LOVE Island winners Kai Fagan and Sanam Harrinanan have revealed they’re quitting fame to go back to their normal jobs.

Kai and Sanam, both 25, won the show’s second-ever winter series last year, and have gone from strength to strength ever since.

But, unlike many of their co-stars, the’ve decided to turn their back on celebrity life since their relationship is more important.

PE teacher Kai and social worker Sanam shared the shock news with an OK! magazine interview – an announcement set to devastate fans.

Kai said: “What makes Sanam and I different is that you have to decide what you want more – the fame that comes with the show, or the person you’re in a relationship with.

“You get invited to parties but we wanted each other more than that lifestyle. We enjoy every moment together and we do things the other person is interested in, too.”

Sanam added: “I didn’t go on Love Island for fame and I never had that sort of lifestyle before the show. I was a social worker beforehand and still am. It’s given me an amazing platform.”

Kai agreed that he’s “never been interested in chasing fame” while defending his decision to go on the show for the opportunity.

He concluded, “It opens doors, but it’s about how you use it. I’d never go on Love Island again – you couldn’t pay me enough.”

The couple, who moved in together last June, only recently sparked fears they’ve split after posting a miserable TikTok.

Kai Fagan, who’s from Manchester, posted a video teaching Sanam Harrinanan northern slang.

In the video, Kai enthusiastically asked Sanam, from London, to guess the meanings of these terms.

Sanam looked unbothered and disinterested, leading fans to speculate about their relationship.

One user commented: “Is Sanam okay.”

Whilst another added: “She looks like she’s bored of you now.”

 

At the end of the video, Kai commented on Sanam’s lack of interest and said to fans: “This is disgusting that she’s just not a*sed about my TikToks.”

Though the video sparked concerns, the couple are still together with Kai revealing that he plans to propose to Sanam in an older TikTok video posted earlier last month.
