Olivia Attwood has turned to fitness as a personal focus after moving out of the marital home she shared with her husband, footballer Bradley Dack. The Love Island star, aged 34, has relocated to London following confirmation over the weekend that her marriage to the 32-year-old athlete has ended, just two years after their wedding.
Gym Sessions and Social Media Updates
On Wednesday, Olivia took to her Instagram Stories to share a glimpse of her workout routine, displaying her abs in a black sports bra. She paired this with black tracksuit bottoms and wore her blonde hair in a practical ponytail. Looking ahead to warmer weather, she captioned the post with the phrase 'Bikini tax', hinting at her fitness goals.
Navigating Heartbreak and New Beginnings
Earlier in the week, Olivia hinted at her emotional state by sharing several clips of her new London flat. In one video, she showed a towering pile of boxes containing her extensive wardrobe, admitting she was 'scared' of the daunting unpacking task. In a lighter moment, she giggled while climbing on top of the boxes, captioning it 'Help'.
She also posted an inspirational video featuring Angelina Jolie, who advised 'go right through it' when facing difficult times. This poignant message resonated with Olivia's current situation, as she navigates the aftermath of her marital breakdown.
Background of the Relationship
The couple first met in 2015, but their relationship faced early challenges when Olivia discovered Bradley had cheated. This led her to sign up for Love Island in 2017, where she rose to fame. After a brief fling with co-star Chris Hughes, she reconciled with Bradley, who proposed during a romantic Dubai getaway in 2019.
They married at London's Bulgari Hotel two years ago, but sources now indicate the marriage has ended 'for good'. Insiders reveal that a recent breach of trust by Bradley, which came as a shock to Olivia, has led to their decision to divorce. Despite past ups and downs, this breakup is described as permanent, with Olivia determined to move on.
Career and Personal Struggles
Olivia has been open about the difficulties in her marriage over the past year. In September, she admitted they had endured a 'challenging' six months, citing busy careers and scheduling conflicts as contributing factors. She emphasised that neither she nor Bradley pretended to have a perfect relationship, acknowledging mutual mistakes and the need for constant work.
Her career has continued to soar, with recommissions of TV shows like Getting Filthy Rich, which often required her to be in London. This led the couple to plan a move closer to the capital after Bradley's transfer to Gillingham F.C., but they ultimately separated instead.
Recent Developments and Social Media Activity
Since the split, Olivia has unfollowed Bradley on Instagram and avoided posting photos of them together, not wanting to give fans a false impression of their relationship. She celebrated Christmas at London's The Corinthia hotel due to mental struggles with moving during the festive period.
Recently, she travelled to Germany for her father's birthday without Bradley, and eagle-eyed fans noted she wasn't wearing her wedding ring. As she settles into her new London home, Olivia's focus on fitness and personal growth marks a new chapter in her life.
