Sadly Dove and Thomas have now broken up, which is a shame as the pair have matching tattoos! They both remain friends though and say that they still care about each other, which is sweet.

No simple black coffee for Dove! She liked to have a venti (extra large) iced coffee made with soy milk and not too much ice. Feel the FACT!
