Olivia Attwood's Heartbreak: Makeup-Free Star Spotted Without Wedding Ring After Bradley Dack Split
A makeup-free Olivia Attwood has been seen for the first time since her reported split from husband Bradley Dack, looking decidedly strained as she arrived at her KISS FM radio show without her wedding ring. The 34-year-old former Love Islander appeared lost in thought, dressed down in a black hood and long brown suede trenchcoat, carrying two coffees as she walked into the studio with her co-presenter and close pal, Pete Wicks.
Social Media Move Speaks Volumes
The star's personal turmoil became public on Sunday when she unfollowed her footballer husband on social media, a move that insiders claim speaks volumes about the seriousness of their separation. Sources close to the couple revealed to The Sun that the split followed a 'breach of trust' on Bradley's side, with the pair taking time apart after what was described as a 'really bad summer' together.
"Olivia and Bradley are taking time apart due to a breach in trust on Bradley's side," a source explained. "They won't address this publicly but friends and family are aware. Separating has never been an option up until now. Olivia is heartbroken."
Professional Success Amid Personal Turmoil
Despite her personal heartbreak, Olivia continues to ride high professionally. Her weekly show The Sunday Roast with Pete Wicks remains popular, and a new series of her hit franchise Getting Filthy Rich is currently airing on ITV2. Interestingly, Bradley accompanied Olivia to the recent London screening of the show, where they sat together with no visible hint of the impending separation.
During Sunday's radio broadcast, Olivia referenced the Beckhams being a hot topic online but notably avoided addressing her own situation. This professional composure contrasts sharply with her evident personal distress during her studio arrival.
Recent Comments Take on New Significance
The split news comes just over a week after Olivia appeared on This Morning to discuss Getting Filthy Rich, where she confessed that she and the Blackburn Rovers star were living 'like passing ships in the night'. When co-host Ben Shepherd asked about her New Year's resolution to be a better wife, Olivia responded with apparent discomfort.
"Yeah I said that on Alan Carr's podcast. I said that in jest and now people keep bringing it up, I feel like I am going to be held accountable. I don't like being held accountable," she admitted. "I think last year, we're very honest, we were like ships in the night, work wise. Everything else, I'd like to give him an easier time this year if I can."
A Relationship History Under Scrutiny
Olivia and Bradley's relationship has faced public scrutiny before. The couple first dated before her 2017 Love Island stint, reignited their romance in 2018, and walked down the aisle in London in 2023. Last summer, rumours swirled when Olivia vacationed in Ibiza with Pete Wicks, though she swiftly dismissed concerns about her marriage at the time.
"I just don't get too invested in it. I am wild, and I do go to Ibiza every year and let my hair down. And I do get told off by my husband. I'm not perfect, Brad's not perfect, but we make it work," she stated in an interview addressing the speculation.
Recent Travel and Return to Work
Following the shock split, Olivia spent time with family in Hamburg, Germany, where she documented her stay in a 'get ready with me' Instagram video from her hotel wardrobe. "Hamburg north Germany is beautiful, it is so f***ing cold though," she remarked in the clip, before returning to the UK for her radio commitments.
The star's visible distress during her studio arrival, combined with her social media actions and insider revelations, paints a picture of a relationship facing significant challenges after two years of marriage. With their lives and families deeply intertwined after more than a decade of connection, friends describe the separation as particularly devastating for both parties.
