She captioned the video: 'Entering a really strange time in my life Newly single after being in a 7 year relationship. 

'Knowing I have my friends to make these memories, make heartbreak a little less painful'.

Speaking to MailOnline in 2020 Courtney admitted it was unlikely she'd have reunited with Callum if it wasn't for the COVID-19 lockdown, and as restrictions have lifted they've seen each other 'a lot more.'

She explained that 'something happened' at the beginning of lockdown which made her reach out to Callum, and it's eventually led them to rekindle their romance.

She said: 'I did get back with my ex-boyfriend, something happened at the start of lockdown and we just started talking again. Me and Callum, obviously we're allowed out we've started dating each other and seeing a lot more.

'If lockdown hadn't happened I don't know if we would have got back together. I feel like because lockdown happened we feel like we had a lot of time to chat and we didn't have any distractions.'

Courtney was first reported to be dating Essex recruitment consultant Callum in November 2018 following her split from Myles Barnett. 

As the rumour mill went into overdrive, a friend of Courtney's confirmed to MailOnline that the pair were an item, but were determined to keep their romance low-key.
