Wes Nelson is reportedly training 12 hours a day as a “distraction” from his ex-girlfriend, Megan Barton-Hanson.
The reality stars announced their split in January, just months after they met on Love Island.
It looks like the pair are still in contact though, as the 20-year-old shared a selfie on Instagram over the weekend and captioned it: “Starve your distractions feed your focus”.
The picture sparked a reaction from his ex and MailOnline reports that Megan commented: “Swear this is exact same picture you sent me? After asking me to… really starving that distraction”.

The 24-year-old then shared a screenshot of the same selfie that Wes had previously sent her, as he messaged her saying: “Extremely annoying that your (sic) not watching me after that”.
“Them lips. Miss you tell me that it’s all mine, and that I’m a ‘good girl,'” Megan responded, in the since-deleted screenshot.
According to The Sun, Wes is training 12 hours a day to take his mind off the reality star and a source claimed: “Wes and Vanessa were rehearsing for 12 hours straight last week.”
“That’s a serious amount of time on the ice, taking breaks of course, just to get things right.”
“Being on the ice is just the distraction he needs right now, especially with everything that’s going on with Megan. The training is keeping him focused –Â he wants to do his best but it has been hard for him emotionally,” they added.
Wes made it through to the finals on Sunday night, as he’ll go head-to-head with James Jordan and Saara Aalto for the top spot this week.
