Olivia Attwood has left her fans swooning as she shared snaps from her trip to St Tropez after saying her split from Bradley Dack was her ‘toughest yet’.
The TV presenter, 34, jetted out of the UK for the downtime shortly after it was revealed how she and footballer Bradley, 32, were never legally married.
Posting on Instagram on Tuesday, Olivia shared snaps from her trip, which she captioned as a ‘Euro (trash) summer’.
In one of her eye-catching pictures, the former Love Island star showed off her impressive abs as she posed in her bra, wearing grey tracksuit bottoms.
Olivia also showed her funny side, using her expensive designer Birkin handbag as a carrier for her cans of Heineken beer.
She stayed at the luxury five-star wellness hotel Lily of the Valley, which is located on the Saint-Tropez Peninsula.
A classic room at the hotel costs approximately £1,000 a night, with other suites ranging up to £8k.
Olivia had a tranquil view from her private balcony, which over looked the nearby hills.
In another snap shared, Olivia enjoyed dinner with a mystery companion down at the harbour as the sun set in front of them.
Her companion also pictured her in a yellow vest top and matching-coloured over the shoulder sweater which she paired with high-waisted denim jeans during one evening out, flaunting her slender frame.
Olivia was flooded with compliments from fans, with one telling the ITV beauty how ‘stress looks good on you’.
Others penned: ‘A so well deserved break st tropez looks good on you baby girl’; ‘Heineken in a Burkin … iconic’;
‘You look beautiful Liv’; ‘Looks gorgeous. Hope you’re doing ok darling girl’; ‘Gorgeous and I hope you’re doing fine and enjoying life’;
‘ What a silly man’; ‘The most stunning’.
Just days ago Olivia candidly said how her split from Bradley had been ‘her toughest’ and she had cried ‘so hard she nearly passed out’.
Her breakup from Bradley was revealed in January this year and since then she has accused him of cheating on multiple occasions.
Appearing on the Extra Dirty podcast last month, Olivia said of the fallout of her breakup: ‘I can only see what I’ve had because people just like to give women a hard time. Someone wrote me on my TikTok yesterday when I was with the girls in New York having fun, and she’s like ”I really hope someone screws you over so badly, like you’re such a cold calculated b***”.
‘I thought, it’s because I’m open and I talk about all kinds of things, but I’m not going to video myself crying and put it on the internet. I’m just f*****g not.
‘It doesn’t mean I don’t cry. I have cried, I’ve cried so hard during this breakup to the point where I f****g think I’m going to pass out, and then I will slap myself in the face and go to work.
‘I don’t need to be crying on the internet, I don’t think that people, professionally, are going to respect me and book me to host their TV shows when I’m videoing myself lying on the floor crying.’
She continued: ‘This relationship spans over a decade on and off, so it’s such a big area of my life.
‘And I think that when you know you tried, we both tried so many things to make it work, so of course it’s just so sad. It’s sad.
‘And also, this is why I’ve not rushed to say anything because it’s like, I can still acknowledge the fact that I like him and I love him as a person, those things can still be true while knowing that it’s run its court.
‘I think it would be easier if I hated him, which I don’t. I think the breakups where they haven’t been such serious relationships, they are easier.’
Turning her attention to the future, Olivia was asked to describe her ideal man, which she explained: ‘I like tattoos, I like a beard, I like hair, I want something I can get my hands into. Confidence, but I’m yapping enough for both of us but you don’t need to be talking all the time, but also confident enough to accept the fact that I don’t shut the f**k up.’
The podcast episode was recorded on March 16, just over a week before a picture emerged of Olivia kissing her close pal Pete Wicks in Soho.
She later confirmed their blossoming romance in a statement, whilst hitting out at Bradley.
Olivia posted: ‘I have stood by Brad for the last ten years during which he lied and cheated on me multiple times. The breakdown of our relationship is because of this.
‘I was in love with him and the potential I saw in him and wanted always to help him try to be the best version of himself – as I did for 10 years – covering up. Lying to my family and friends. Arranging therapy. Believing the grovelling apologies.
‘I of course now feel like a f*****g idiot. (Especially as more things come to the surface) I never wanted to say any of this. I find the whole situation utterly humiliating.’
Olivia went on to speak about the moment she decided to walk away from the relationship, as well as confirming her relationship with ITV is strong following reports the broadcaster was ‘furious’ over the fake wedding scandal.
She continued: ‘This January when I was confronted at the screening of one of my shows by someone reporting to me yet another night he had gone back with a random girl – I decided it was time to finally leave.
‘I’m not losing my job, I’m not pulling the wool over anyone’s eyes. Yes I’m dating.
‘Yes I’m getting up every single day even when I have cried all night to film the shows I love filming, record my podcast, record my radio show, shoot campaigns and somewhere in there TRY to move on.’
