Why did Luca Bish and Sophie Floyd break up?

Sophie actually revealed their breakup during one of her videos, sharing that he had been 'massively disrespectful' to her.

While she didn’t reveal details she did say: “It's a lot. I've been dealing with that and all the things that come with that. Very sudden, very unexpected, weird. We've been together since we were like 17 so it's such a long time to grow up with someone... We were literally best friends." 

She then continued: "It feels very similar to grief that I've felt before. He's maybe not who he was and he's maybe not who I thought he was as well, which is f*****g hard to deal with.

“He did f*****g hurt me and he was massively disrespectful to me towards the end, which is why I kind of just had to put things to bed and move forward.”

In her explainer, Sophie added that she wouldn't 'say a bad word about him' and wanted to just move on from it and remember the good times.
