Well, depending on the situation, they could in fact reference the same person... or not, because relationships are complicated.
Say you're seeing Girl A, and then break up😢.
She's now your "Ex"girlfriend and "Former lover."
And say you date 2 more girls before find The One (Girl D)and get Married 💍.
Girl A is now one of your "Previous" girlfriends, one of you "Former" lovers, and one of your "Exs".
Well after 5yrs Girl D isn't cutting it, & you get a divorce. 😭
Now that you've been married- Ex suddenly Only refers to the Ex-wife.
(Oh, and Girl A came back into your life. She ends up being your Real Happily Ever After). 💕
Also: Former can refer to listing in a sentence, as in Former and Latter
Previous can also be utilized like the word back, as in "to go back".
