Dami Hope breaks silence on BRITs pics with influencer after Indiyah split

Dami Hope has addressed speculation of a new romance after he was spotted posing with influencer Uche Natori at the BRIT Awards, with a source confirming the pair are nothing more than friends.

The Love Island star, who split from girlfriend of three years Indiyah Polack last month, attended the music awards in Manchester on Saturday where he posed for photos with content creator Uche Natori. The images quickly sparked fan speculation that Dami had moved on from his former flame.

However, an insider has now clarified the situation, revealing the pair's connection is strictly professional.

"Dami and Uche are just friends and there is nothing romantic in it," a source told The Sun. "They are both ambassadors of Neutrogena and attended as part of their work commitment."

The source added that Dami and Uche have known each other for years and share many mutual friends. "They get on really well – but there is no further connection and they're definitely not dating."

The insider also emphasized that Dami is focused on healing following his split from Indiyah. "Dami is single and still working on healing after his split from Indiyah. He's been through a lot and jumping back into another relationship is the last thing on his mind."

Dami cut a stylish figure in a pinstripe suit with burgundy leather tie and matching gloves, while Uche stunned in a shimmering silver gown. The Love Island star narrowly avoided an awkward encounter with ex Indiyah, who also attended the ceremony.

The BRITs appearance comes after Indiyah recently hinted she might be open to dating again. During a Snapchat Q&A on Friday, the TV personality suggested there is "someone" she would ask out, adding "too soon innit" when a fan recommended a restaurant for a date.

Dami and Indiyah first met on the 2022 series of Love Island and finished in third place. Their split last month followed controversy after a video emerged showing Indiyah kissing Inside co-star Marlon Lundgren Garcia, for which she later apologised and took "full responsibility."
