In April, the pair confirmed they had called time on their romance, after two years.
Taking to Instagram, Lochan shared a video with him appearing alongside Brianna Balram, who starred in the Netflix reality series, Too Hot to Handle.
It showed the pair had cooked together during Brianna's recent trip to London.
One follower commented: "So nice to see him happy I see chemistry here."
Another added: "This is a soft launch if ever I saw one.
"That hand on the small of the back no lie."
Elsewhere, Whitney herself addressed the video via a Snapchat post.
She shared a screenshotted comment from a follower which read: "Sorry to disturb you sis, have you seen your replacement."
Whitney captioned the post: "Using another sister for clickbait, president."
Fans had previously speculated a potential romance between Lochan and Brianna.
Love Island's Whitney says she was 'bamboozled' by Lochan split and reveals reason for shock split
Ahead of their video, Lochan and Brianna posed closely together in a post on Instagram
The pair smiled happily to the camera while standing in a kitchen, and as she held up a plate of food in the two photos.
"2 worlds 🇬🇧🇺🇸 [Great Britain and United States] + 2 foodies and 1 recipe. Can you guess what me and your fav chef @lochan_nowacki cooked up while I was in London?' Brianna captioned the post.
Fans rushed to the comments to speculate whether the pair were a couple or not.
Love Island - Whitney and Lochan Love Story
THE duo found love on-screen in 2023 - yet what's the lowdown?
Beauty mogul Whitney entered the villa on Day 3, and experienced highs and lows on the hit ITV2 reality show, stealing contestant Andre Furtado, 22, the same day she entered into the villa.
She coupled up with Mehdi Edno, 26, on Day 5, and in a surprising turn of events, she took personal trainer Zachariah Noble, 26, out on a date but their chemistry would soon fizzle out.
Her luck changed in Week 5, when Windsor-born Lochan entered Cara Amor on Day 26. On Day 31, Whitney chose to couple up with Lochan.
The show favourites lost out on the winning spot to Jess Harding, 23, and Sammy Root, 23 on the show finale on Day 58.
She recently told how the pair were planning to move in together.
Yet in July 2024, eyebrows were raised after the pair unfollowed each other on social media then attended an event together - leaving some fans calling out a "publicity stunt."
"If they are dating he'll be the luckiest guy coz bree is one of the most beautiful girls ever," wrote one person.
"They look good together," penned another.
But another person was not convinced, writing: "Where in the caption does it suggest they are dating?
"It just looks to me they partnered up to make a dish... or am I missing something?"

She has broken down so many barriers in her career, from modelling for Gucci to being the first model with Down syndrome to appear on the cover of Vogue. "Ellie can't wait to get started on the show and show people what she can do.' She will join stars including former footballer Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, EastEnders actress Balvinder Sopal, ex-rugby star Chris Robshaw and reality TV's Dani Dyer. Ellie's parents were told she would never be able to walk or talk after she was born with Down syndrome. However she defied the odds, and Ellie says she now 'never stops talking'.

Shaughna Phillips reveals why Love Island's top couple won't last – and it makes sense
EXCLUSIVE: Shaughna Phillips, who shot to fame on the 2020 winter series of Love Island, has shared her thoughts on why the most popular couple in the villa won't last on the outside Former Love Island star Shaughna Phillips has insisted that she doesn't see things working out between one of the most popular couples on the ITV2 dating show despite their current chemistry in the villa. Shaughna, 31, has said that she feels incredibly skeptical about smitten couple Toni Laites and Cach Mercer and doesn't see their romance lasting once the show is over. The ex Love Island star, who appeared on the winter series back in 2020, told The Mirror: "I felt bad for Toni because I think she did genuinely like Cach originally, but Harrison just threw her head into a spin." It comes after pregnant Shaughna revealed her biggest regret over her romance on the show. 'She probably acted on it mainly because she had known Harrison for a longer period of time than Cach," she added about Toni. 'She probably went with what felt familiar, and she made an uninformed decision in choosing Harrison - not through her own fault. Cach is this season's Ovie. He is an absolute king, and she did mess up the first time for a boy," Shaughna said. Despite the fact that Toni and Cach now seem on top of the world now that they are finally rid of all the love triangles, Shaughna has pointed out one major barrier for the couple in the future. 'They seem like they're going well in the villa, but sadly, I think there could be lingering animosity between the pair. I just have this feeling that although Cach hardly ever shows it, there's probably going to be a bit of tension when they get out into the real world," Shaughna said. 'Logistically as well it doesn't work – she lives in America. It's bad enough for couples who live far apart in the UK when coming out of the Love Island villa, but this is another level," she added to Card Player. Elsewhere, Shaughna has defended Cooksley for going back to Shakira Khan despite making things exclusive with Helena Ford just two days prior. Despite criticism online, Shaughna believes Harry's decision to pick Shakira was from the heart - not a tactical move. 'Harry is emotionally a donut, but he isn't a gameplayer,' she said. 'If he were being strategic, he would've stayed with Helena. 'If Harry had any chance of winning, it would've been with Helena, so he's messed that up. For him to now pick Shakira shows his genuine feelings, I believe. But wow… he left it late." 'I would love to say that Shakira should move on and not give Harry another chance, but I am a bit of a wet wipe, and so when I was her age, if I had even the smallest feelings for someone back then, as Shakira has for Harry, even if everyone was telling me they were bad news… if they turned to me and said, 'Let's try,' I'd be like, 'Okay, let's try again.' "So, I feel for Shakira. I think she does genuinely like him, and she was kind of soft-launching it when she said, 'In a perfect world, they'd be together.' I don't think anyone should judge her for that." Love Island continues Sunday at 9PM on ITV2 and ITVX.

Watch the moment FURIOUS row explodes between Love Island's ‘strongest couple' as they head for split days before final
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island's 'strongest couple' found themselves in a furious row and could be heading for a split - just days before the final. The remaining Islanders played a game of Knowing Me, Knowing You - testing how well the couples know each other. 4 Love Island's Meg and Dejon argued after the latest challenge Credit: Eroteme 4 Their feud continues into the following episode Credit: ITV 4 Dejon picked Yas as the girl he'd couple up with - if Meg wasn't in the villa Credit: Eroteme Dejon and Meg emerged as joint winners and therefore the "strongest couple". Despite this, the pair found themselves in an argument after the challenge. The boys had to answer which girl they'd couple up with - if their actual partner wasn't in the villa. Meg was left shocked when Dejon picked Yasmin, despite recent tensions with her, Shakira and Toni. The couple bickered as Dejon insisted he'd told Meg this before - but his girlfriend argued she didn't remember the conversation. In a first-look at tonight's instalment, it would appear they are still feuding. Speaking to Conor, Meg shares: "I'm not just gonna stand there. He's put Yas on a board again. "I take so much heat from these three girls. You've put on a board that you would recouple with Yas." Conor then interjected, saying Dejon "may have taken the question too literal". Meg added: "It's a challenge, I don't care about it. Love Island fans 'work out' why Dejon turned on Meg as villa's strongest couple hit the rocks days before final "At the end of the day, we're boyfriend and girlfriend. It doesn't matter." Dejon then approached, remarking: "You're going to stop talking as I'm walking past?" Hearing this, Meg repeated to her boyfriend what she'd just told Conor. She then continued: "He just gets so defensive over everything." Later on, the couple are sat together as Meg says: "I had a little chat with Yas. "Obviously, I don't know whether you know from the boys, but she wrote your name on the board yesterday. LOVE ISLAND 2025 - ALL the dumped stars so far LOVE Island 2025 is in its penultimate week.
