Love Island All Stars sensation Olivia Hawkins has bravely revealed the brutal text message that brought her romance with co-star Tom Clare to a crashing halt, leaving fans and followers stunned by the footballer's cold delivery.
The ITV2 star, who found love with Tom during the winter series, confessed that their relationship ended not with a conversation, but with a devastating message sent just two months after leaving the South African villa. The text reportedly read: "This isn't going anywhere. I don't want to be in a relationship."
Olivia described the moment as completely out of the blue, explaining that Tom had been planning to visit her and everything seemed perfectly normal between them. "We were speaking, and he was meant to be coming to see me," she shared during an emotional appearance on the >Ophenga podcast. "Then I got a text message. I was like, 'Is this a joke?'"
The reality star admitted the impersonal nature of the breakup made it particularly painful to process. Rather than having a respectful conversation, Tom opted for the digital brush-off that left Olivia reeling and questioning their entire connection.
Since their split, Tom has moved on with fellow islander Sammy Root, while Olivia has been focusing on healing and moving forward with her life. Her candid revelation has sparked sympathy from Love Island fans across social media, with many criticising Tom's handling of the situation.
The professional boxer and actress's story serves as a stark reminder that even television romances that seem storybook-perfect can face harsh realities once the cameras stop rolling and the villa gates close behind them.
