LOVE Island star Sophie Piper has given an update on boyfriend Joshua Ritchie after revealing that she is moving to Los Angeles.
The reality beauty, 27, has packed up her belongings and is headed across the pond without her All Stars Beau.
Following a star-studded evening at the Brit Awards, Sophie has jetted off to the City of Angels revealing the new chapter of her life to fans.
Last month, the stunning brunette revealed that she had been signed as a model to huge modelling agency Wilhelmina.
She announced the exciting news in a sizzling post which saw her wear lace tights and a white leotard, which revealed her toned figure.
Sophie has now officially made the move to the states, without her long-term boyfriend Josh, 31.
Taking to her Instagram stories, the brunette bombshell snapped herself on a British Airways flight heading to the US, with a celebratory glass of juice in hand.
She penned the caption: “4 suitcases later and she’s off !! Excited for this new journey.”
“Orange juice because I’m recovering from the Brits (laughing face emoji),” she added.
Although Sophie did not mention how long she would be going for, the snap had left fans seemingly confused that Josh was notably absent from the post.
In a following story, the reality star quickly cleared up any confusion surrounding the situation, confirming that the couple are very much still together.
Overlaid on top of a sweet snap of the pair, she penned: “Reading all your messages is making me laugh guys.
“To answer your question Josh is not coming with me but he will be regularly visiting!! He’s my bestfriend so I can’t go too long without him hahaha, he’ll be coming to see me in two weeks (heart emoji).”
Sophie shot to fame when she appeared on the very first series of Winter Love Island in 2020.
But it was when she returned to the villa two years ago, she finally found love.
It was on the first ever series of All Stars that she met Josh, which came as a surprise to fans.
However, the unlikely couple proved they had fallen for each other and came third on the show, after losing to Molly Smith and Tom Clare
Sophie and Josh have been together ever since and have often sparked engagement rumours.
