A former lover (3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

old flame

'a former lover' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for old flame that I've seen before include "Former partner" , "Ex-lover - the fire still burns" , "Former lover" , "Someone once loved" , "still 1 across [ALIGHT], it seems" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
