LOVE Island’s Whitney Adebayo and Lochan Nowacki have sparked split fears after they were seen locked in “tense” talks backstage at the National Television Awards last night.

A number of onlookers said the pair “looked miserable” and unhappy to be in each other’s company at the star-studded bash.

Guests spotted the couple looking “distant” throughout the night, with some fearing that the pair are set to call it quits.

In our exclusive video, the pair could be seen looking downcast while deep in conversation at the afterparty.

A partygoer told The Sun: “Whitney and Lochan looked a bit down and miserable on what should be the best night of the year.

“They were seen having quiet chats away from their group of mates.

“At times they looked a bit fed up and Whitney didn’t look impressed.

“They are a great couple, so it’s worrying to see them showing signs of a split just weeks after going official.”

Whitney looked glam in a green sequin ball gown, while aspiring TV chef Lochan looked dapper for a black suit.

It comes just two weeks after the pair revealed they had taken a huge step in their relationship.

In July Whitney and Lochan, both 25, just missed out on scooping the £50k prize to Love Island winners Jess Harding and Sammy Root.

The pair decided to make their relationship official.

He told Whitney: “Cheers too our second week out of the villa, your favourite dinner made by the one and only and to you being my girlfriend…”

A surprised Whitney said: “I’m your girlfriend? Bagged it!
