Jessy Potts, 26, rose to fame on the eleventh series of Love Island in 2024, where she was coupled up with former Towie star Joey Essex.
Just seven weeks after leaving the infamous Love Island villa, the pair called time on their romance.
Now the star has taken to somewhat desperate measures to find her Mr Right.
Taking advantage of the viral Jet2 Holiday advert campaign, Jesy recorded a video of herself boarding a plane from the holiday operator.
But as the voiceover blared out on her TikTok profile, she made strange faces at the phone camera as she walked on the tarmac.
The caption on top of the video read: "Just a girl on her way to a different country to spend a week with a man she met for 48 hours.
Almost immediately, droves of her loyal followers flooded the comments section with concerns for the former reality personality.
One fan exclaimed: "That's abit dogey!"
A second stated: "Good luck gf !! Blink twice if you need help," alongside a concerned emoji face.
"911 on dial just in case, noted a third social media user.
Love Island's wildest and sexiest terrace moments
While a fourth suggested: "Sounds like the start of a perfect love story, or a horror film. Love you my girl be safe."
While someone else sarcastically asked: "Do you watch true crime at all Jessy(???)"
And a sixth stated: "I live this for you, just please be careful."
This comes after she previously revealed that her sister was brutally axed from the Love Island line-up in a major U-turn by bosses.
Love Island series 11 - feuds in the villa
No edition of Love Island is complete without its fair share of drama - and series 11 is no different. Here's a look at some of the most fiery feuds so far. Joey Essex & Samantha Kenny: Samantha entered the villa on Day 1 and was initially coupled with Sam Taylor. However, Samantha was 'stolen' by Joey, the first bombshell of series 11. She was 'dumped' on Day 16 - with the make-up artist saying she had been brutally snubbed by Joey in the villa - although it never made it to air.

Harriet Blackmore & Jess White: The two women were caught up in a love triangle for much of their time on the programme. The pair were fighting over Ronnie Vint, 27, from Greenwich, who wound up being dumped alongside Harriett.
She revealed to fans on Snapchat: "Yeah so when I first had an interview with Love Island we didn't know what it was for we just knew we were doing a call with ITV and they wanted sisters, they were looking for siblings.
"Then I don't think it went anywhere because I don't think they could figure it out."

A LOVE Island host has taken a swipe at Harry and says he 'held Shakira back' from winning the show. Last night viewers watched as Toni Laites and Cach Mercer won the latest series of the ITV2 reality show. Advertisement 5 Love Island host Sam has taken a swipe at Harry and says he 'held Shakira back' from winning the show Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 5 The couple came in second place with some fans speculating that Harry 'held Shakira back' Credit: Shutterstock Editorial After weeks of drama in the villa, the series came to a close yesterday with a battle between Toni & Cach, Shakira Khan & Harry Cooksley, Angel Swift & Ty Isherwood and Yasmin Pettet & Jamie Rhodes. Many fans thought Shakira had it in the bag, but after Harry's villa antics some viewers speculated that the pair wouldn't win because of him. This is a sentiment that Aftersun host Sam Thompson appeared to agree with. 'Shakira was slightly held back by Harry yeah, but do you know what he had a bit of a personality transplant at the end. Advertisement 'Now, I think he's madly in love with her and that won't change. They'll come out and he'll see how well she's doing and probably even more in love with her.' Sam, who spoke to The Sun on behalf of M&Ms Couch Confessions, added: 'I think they'll go strong for a while. 'She could've won it, but I think Toni and Cach are amazing.' The 33-year-old threw his full support behind winners Toni and Cach, adding: 'I loved his tears. I know it sounds weird but I love that he showed that emotion. Advertisement 'He also would never look at her when talking to her, which I found so interesting. I think he's really shy, but I think that's really endearing and you can tell he's just a nice guy. Sam Thompson 'shoots his shot' and hit on Olivia Attwood's MARRIED sister says Pete Wicks - after his date with influencer is revealed 'It's good to see nice guys do well who don't start as the OG's. He doesn't have to be the life of the party, and he wasn't the most entertaining person in the world, but he was just a lovely guy.' Sam, who listed Love Island as his favourite TV show ever, also spoke about the divide between the girls in the villa. Millions of viewers watched the likes of Toni Laites and Shakira Khan clash with Helena and Meg Moore. Advertisement Things got especially heated when Harry Cooksley's head was turned back to Shakira after he made his partnership with Helena 'exclusive'. Sharing his thoughts on the matter, Sam told us: 'You're going to get all of that happening. 'I went into the house a few days ago and it's small. You're on top of each other and you know how it is, they'll get out and all be best of pals. 'They'll have a WhatsApp group, someone will leave it first, but they're all pals.' Advertisement The Aftersun star wasn't too sure which couple will be the first to split, but was adamant that Yasmin was his favourite Islander of the series. He continued: 'Do you think it'll be Meg and Dejon? I do think they've got something to prove now. I don't think they'll break up any time soon. 'And I think we've got some really strong couples. Yas had an amazing story arc, at the start she was risque and I love now that we've seen a little bit of warmth and heart. 'She was my favourite Islander.' Advertisement On the topic of TV, Sam was chatting to The Sun about all things telly while enjoying some M&M'S, to launch Couch Confessions, a playful new pop-up experience coming to Battersea on 5th August, built around Britain's funniest (and most relatable) TV-watching habits. He opened up on his own TV watching habits, saying: 'I'm a pauser, I'm a talker, I'm a sub-titler, I'm a tea maker, I'm a fiddler.' The 33-year-old also said he was keen to buy a slanket, which boasts the unique features arm holes, foot pockets, and areas for snacks, so he could share it with his cats. Asked if his best mate Pete Wicks would be accompanying him in the slanket, Sam was quick to say: 'I'm not sharing it with anyone at the moment, it'll just be me and my cats in the slanket.'
