ITV presenter breaks silence over 'humiliating' relationship breakdown with pro footballer: 'Lied and cheated!'

The revelation about Mr Dack's alleged behaviour follows the bombshell disclosure by The Daily Mail that the couple's 2023 wedding was never legally binding.

Their ceremony at the five-star Bvlgari hotel in Knightsbridge, which formed the centrepiece of ITV's reality series Olivia Meets Her Match, failed to secure official status as the venue lacked a wedding licence.

No record of the marriage exists with the General Register Office, which registers all marriages and civil partnerships in England and Wales.

ITV sources have allegedly told the outlet they are "stunned" and "furious" at being misled, particularly as the network had invested hundreds of thousands of pounds in the programme documenting the wedding preparations.

The broadcaster had allegedly viewed Ms Attwood as a potential successor to Holly Willoughby, with her publicist recently boasting that ITV was giving her "all of the commissions".

The former Love Island contestant took to Instagram on Tuesday evening with a damning statement directed at her former partner.

"I have stood by Brad for the last ten years during which he lied & cheated on me multiple times," she wrote.

"The breakdown of our relationship is because of this."

The 34-year-old claimed she had spent years concealing his behaviour from those closest to her, organising counselling sessions and accepting his apologies.

She admitted: "I, of course, now feel like a f****** idiot."

"I never wanted to say any of this... I find the whole situation utterly humiliating."

Ms Attwood disclosed that the final straw came in January when a woman approached her at a screening event to report another alleged incident involving Mr Dack.

Fans of the star were quick to take to social media to share their thoughts on the bombshell statement.

"It’s always the woman who gets judged and slated! Rise above! Don't know how you’ve kept quiet this long" one fan said, while another added: "Good riddance!"

A third penned: "I hate when other women belittle other women..."

"We love you girl," said another.

Since the split became public, the reality TV star has been photographed in an intimate embrace with her Kiss FM co-host Pete Wicks at a rooftop bar in Soho.

The pair, who first became acquainted at a Specsavers Awards ceremony in 2017, had previously sparked speculation last summer when the former Towie star was pictured with his arms around her on a yacht in Ibiza.

Sources close to Ms Attwood suggest her inner circle remains apprehensive about the new romance, due to her track record with relationships.

One insider claimed: "Friends and family are very concerned about Pete.

"He's got issues with commitment, so that is a worry for Olivia."

However, other sources maintain that Mr Wicks is "smitten" with the presenter and "adores her".

Ms Attwood and Mr Dack's relationship predates her television career, with the couple first getting together before her 2017 appearance on Love Island.

The presenter has previously acknowledged that she entered the villa after discovering Mr Dack had been unfaithful, with the footballer himself admitting on a podcast last year that his actions were "not very nice".

Following a brief romance with Chris Hughes on the dating show, Ms Attwood reconciled with the footballer in 2018 after he declared his love for her.

Speaking on her Sunday Roast podcast with Mr Wicks, Ms Attwood suggested her next wedding would take place in Las Vegas, though she dismissed the idea of another hen party, calling them "lame".
