Olivia Attwood has candidly described the past month as a "nightmare" during her radio show, following widespread reports that she has separated from her husband, footballer Bradley Dack. The 34-year-old ITV personality, who married Dack in June 2023, was spotted without her wedding ring while arriving for her KISS FM programme, fueling speculation about the state of their relationship.
Radio Show Revelations and Public Appearance
During her broadcast, when co-presenter and close friend Pete Wicks asked how she was feeling, Attwood admitted to experiencing "blue days" and exhaustion. "I'm actually a bit tired, this week has been long. This month has been long," she revealed. "This January has been a nightmare. I'm having blue days." Earlier that afternoon, a makeup-free Attwood was photographed holding Starbucks coffees alongside Wicks as they arrived at the studio, noticeably not wearing her wedding band.
Sources Detail 'Breach of Trust' and Heartbreak
A source close to the former Love Island star told The Sun that the couple are "taking time apart due to a breach in trust on Bradley's side." The insider added that Attwood was "devastated" by the situation and "heartbroken" by the split, though neither party is expected to address it publicly. Friends and family are reportedly aware of the separation, which marks a significant shift as "separating has never been an option" for the pair until now.
Previous Marriage Struggles and Public Scrutiny
This development follows Attwood's previous openness about marital difficulties. On her podcast, Olivia's House, she stated, "At the end of the day marriage is really f**king hard. The rumour mill was in full swing. We really weren't getting on very well." Her comments came after photographs emerged of her getting close to friend Pete Wicks while partying in Ibiza last summer, which reportedly left Dack "fuming." Attwood later referred to that period as a "really bad summer" and acknowledged that Bradley "wasn't perfect," hinting at issues on both sides.
Long History and Relationship Background
Attwood and Dack have a complex relationship history spanning over a decade, having originally met and dated before her appearance on Love Island in 2017. According to Attwood, her decision to join the reality show was motivated by revenge after Dack cheated on her previously. Their on-and-off relationship has endured various challenges, with Attwood consistently emphasising the difficulties of married life while maintaining their bond until recent events.
