Millie Court has opened up about the difficulty of living on her own and said that she is looking forward to a "fresh start" next year, following her split from Liam Reardon.
The reality TV star, 25, took to Instagram last night for a Q&A with her followers, in which she addressed topics including fashion and horror film recommendations.
The Love Island winner - who announced in July that she had split from her boyfriend Liam, 23 - was also asked by a fan about her experience living alone in her Essex property.
She's understood to still be living in the three-storey home she had moved into with Liam prior to their break-up and confirmed this week that they no longer live there together.
Millie was asked by a follower during the Q&A yesterday: "How's it like living on your own?" She said in response: "I mean it's not the best thing in the world [at the moment]."
"I need to start loving my own company again. Sometimes I do, but [the] majority of the time I have people over or I'm out to keep myself busy. I'll get there eventually," she added.
The former islander teased that she won't be staying in the house for too long, writing: "I'll be moving out of this place hopefully towards the end of the year. Fresh start for 2023".

Millie had shared her response to the question alongside a photo of a large window in the property which offers picturesque views of the surrounding countryside in Essex.
She had previously shared a similar photo of the same window inside the house, whilst she was still with Liam. They were said to have moved in together in September last year.
The former couple - who won Love Island together last year - announced that they had separated in statements shared with their fans on social media earlier this year.
She wrote: "It's been a tough decision and I am gutted but it's ultimately what is best for us right now." Millie said that they were both "ready for new chapters" in their lives.
"Nothing will ever take away from the amazing experience we shared in Love Island and the past year and I wish Liam all the best in everything he does," she had also stated.
Liam posted a similar statement, in which he said that they will "continue to be friends" and assuring that he will remain her "biggest supporter in all that she does".
