Ex-Couple at Bournemouth University Set to End Year-Long Flatshare

Both will move out in September to pursue individual paths beyond their forced cohabitation

Overview

  • Hannah Linsley and Michael Loven broke off their two-year relationship in August 2024 yet remained co-tenants in a two-bedroom flat after neither replaced the other on the lease.
  • Over the 2024–25 academic year they maintained a cooperative household by setting boundaries such as barring dates from the flat and sharing chores.
  • The exes navigated awkward single-life moments—like matching each other on dating apps and running into each other on nights out—without hostility.
  • In March 2025 Michael suggested they reconcile but both ultimately chose to remain focused on their academic commitments rather than reunite permanently.
  • Their tenancy ends in September as Linsley heads to Portsmouth for a new behavioural support role and Loven moves into another flat for his final university year.
