However, their relationship came to an end shortly after leaving the villa, with fans speculating about the reasons behind their split.
Until now, she hadn’t publicly addressed the breakup.
At tonight’s MOBO Awards, Mimii made it clear there’s no bad blood between her and Josh.
She told The Sun: “We’re cordial. No bad blood between either of us. He’s moved on, I’ve moved on, so yeah. I’ve moved on.”
When asked whether she meant she had moved on from the situation or onto someone new, Mimii remained tight-lipped, simply saying: “I don’t kiss and tell.”
Back in October, Josh spoke for the first time about their split, telling us at the Pride of Britain Awards: “Mimii is just as busy as I am.
“I’m sure she’s doing well whatever she is doing.
“I wish her the best and I hope she continues to thrive.”
The pair made history earlier this year after they were crowned the first all-black couple to win the ITV2 dating show.
But after returning to the UK, the former couple sparked split rumours and then in September they confirmed they had gone their separate ways for good.
Mimii told fans at the time: “Hi everyone, I know that a lot of you have been wondering about Josh and I and why we haven’t been making appearances.
“The truth is we have been trying to figure it out since leaving the villa, but unfortunately things aren’t going to work out between us right now.
“I know it’s a big disappointment for a lot of you as it is for me too, your support for us hasn’t gone unnoticed and I will forever be grateful for it, you guys are the reason we made it to this point.
“God bless you all.”
Fans had previously been left worried the Islanders were on the rocks after a social media update from Mimii showed her partying without Josh.
She was snapped with fellow co-star Omar Nyame, who was a bombshell arrival in the latest series.
OG star Mimii and Josh – who entered the villa as a bombshell – proved runaway winners after Love Island released the exact voting stats.
It showed the scooped 41% of the viewer vote, with Ciaran and Nicole finishing in second place with 35%.
The Sun revealed how Josh was pictured with a mystery woman just three weeks after winning Love Island.
The reality star was seen wandering the All Points East Festival arm-in-arm with a mysterious woman.
Girlfriend Mimii didn’t appear to be at the event, so Josh took some time to catch up with pals.
