Olivia Attwood Unveils New London Home Following Marriage Breakdown
Olivia Attwood has offered her followers a poignant first glimpse of her new London residence, marking a significant personal transition after moving out of the marital home she shared with her now-estranged husband, footballer Bradley Dack. The 34-year-old television personality, who rose to fame on the hit reality series Love Island, has relocated to the capital following confirmation over the weekend that her two-year marriage has ended.
Emotional Social Media Posts Signal Fresh Start
Breaking her social media silence on Monday, Attwood shared a revealing video of her sparsely furnished flat, having hastily departed the home she previously occupied with Dack. In a reflective selfie taken before mirrored wardrobes, she captioned the image: '2026.. a new home in the city I was born in'. An accompanying video showed the emotional presenter seated in her empty living room, accompanied by the introspective message: 'That dream was planted in your heart for a reason.'
This public display comes as multiple sources have confirmed to the Daily Mail that the couple's relationship is conclusively over and divorce proceedings are imminent. The split is reportedly due to Dack, a player for Gillingham FC, having 'breached her trust' in a recent incident that sources describe as having come as a 'complete shock' to Attwood.
A Decade-Long Relationship Marked by Turbulence
The pair first met in 2015, prior to Attwood's appearance on Love Island in 2017—a decision she made after discovering Dack had been unfaithful during their early romance. Despite this rocky beginning, they reconciled months after her brief fling with former co-star Chris Hughes concluded. Dack proposed during a romantic getaway to Dubai in 2019, and they married two years later at London's prestigious Bulgari Hotel.
However, the relationship has been characterised by public challenges. Attwood had previously been based in Cheshire with the footballer but recently moved to a London flat amidst persistent rumours their marriage was faltering. She has been candid with her fanbase about marital struggles, admitting last September that the preceding six months had been 'really challenging' as their demanding careers—his in football and hers in television—took precedence.
Signs of the Impending Split
Several indicators pointed to serious difficulties before the separation was confirmed:
- The couple moved out of their Cheshire home in December, initially planning to purchase a new property closer to London to accommodate their work schedules.
- Attwood celebrated Christmas at London's Corinthia hotel, struggling mentally with the disruption of moving during the festive period.
- During a recent family trip to Germany for her father's birthday, Dack was notably absent, and observant fans noted Attwood was not wearing her wedding ring.
- Since the split, Attwood has unfollowed Dack on Instagram, having already spent months avoiding posting couple photos to prevent giving a false impression of harmony.
A source close to the situation elaborated: 'Olivia and Bradley have had a long relationship full of ups and downs. They have always managed to overcome problems, including distance, busy careers, and past betrayals. But Bradley's recent breach of trust has led them to end their marriage. While some questioned if this breakup is temporary, it's definitely not. Olivia knows now is the time to move on for good.'
Career Focus Amid Personal Turmoil
Professionally, Attwood's career continues to flourish. She was pictured arriving at KISS radio studios on Sunday to host her show alongside co-star Pete Wicks. The This Morning presenter also fronts her own dating series, Bad Boyfriends—reportedly inspired by Dack's past behaviour—and has seen recommissions for all her television projects, including Getting Filthy Rich.
Reflecting on the balance between her personal and professional life, Attwood previously told the Daily Mail: 'Me and Brad never pretend to have a perfect relationship... My work and his work take precedence over everything. It's the boring side of being an adult in a long term relationship, we constantly have to work at it... I have messed up and done stuff, Brad has messed up. It's really easy to pretend you're perfect but no one is.'
The couple share two rescue dogs, Lola and Stitch, whom they both regularly post about online, adding another layer of complexity to their separation.
