TMG Entertainment can on Thursday reveal that actress Jay Anstey and Top Billing presenter Jonathan Boynton-Lee have called time on their relationship.

Speaking exclusively to TMG Entertainment the couple confirmed that they are no longer dating.

"We have split, but there is still lots of love there. Sometimes you have to take a step back for something to work in the future," Jonathan told us.

Alluding to the fact that they might get back together in the future, Jon said that the split was amicable and the two remain friends.

"We are still friends and still talking," he explained.

Jay reiterated his words, confirming that they had split.

"Yes, it's true. The break-up was amicable and I'm taking time to focus on my career."

The couple have been dating for over a year and were seen as the darlings of the entertainment industry, often being dubbed 'Mr and Mrs Boynton-Lee.'

They have previously spoken about their relationship, explaining that it was their friend, Simba Mhere, who brought them together before his death in 2015.

So, is there a chance of a reconciliation? Well, only time will tell. The two have not removed each other as friends on social media and many of their posts together remain.

Sads!
