Olivia Attwood parties away divorce blues at London club with Pete Wicks
Olivia Attwood is letting her hair down and making the most of single life following her split from husband Bradley Dack.
The ITV host, 34, was pictured with best pal and radio co-host Pete Wicks, 37, on a night out in London – and it was a late one.
Olivia and Pete partied with friends at a club in Soho, leaving in a car together just before 3am to head back to their hotel in Central.
Ever the fashionista, Olivia showcased her style in a pastel yellow playsuit with a white lace trim, paired with black tights and heels that enhanced her height.
She threw on a red bomber jacket to shield herself from the February chill as the group stood in the smoking area, waiting for their taxi.
Olivia had already been out celebrating her newly announced partnership with Garnier at The Newman Hotel before joining the group for a more raucous time.
As such, she had her honey blonde tresses styled in loose waves before shoving them up into a ponytail as the night went on.
She and Pete – with whom she fronts Kiss FM’s Sunday Roast show – were seen deep in conversation at multiple points, the former Strictly Come Dancing star clearly a shoulder for her to lean on through a tough period.
It comes after the pair were forced to shut down affair rumours last summer, having been seen cosying up on a yacht in Ibiza, which reportedly landed her ‘in the doghouse’ with Bradley, 32.
Still, Olivia has maintained her close bond with Pete and is showing no signs of slowing down, having thrown herself into both work and socialising since confirming she and footballer Bradley had parted ways.
Last month, following weeks of speculation, the Bad Boyfriends presenter took to her Instagram Story with a statement, showing that she was unpacking boxes in her new London apartment by herself.
She admitted that ‘vulnerability is not [her] bag’, feeling especially anxious about getting personal on social media, as it’s akin to ‘bleeding in shark-infested waters’.
However, in the name of transparency, the famously sarcastic and sharp-tongued reality star revealed that she was ‘crying [herself] to sleep’ as she navigated some major life changes.
‘I never expected to be moving into this apartment alone. And I’m in over my depth for sure’, she wrote.
Addressing her marriage breakdown directly, Olivia proved there’s no bad blood, despite swirling reports that their relationship ended due to a ‘breach of trust’ on his part.
‘I just want to be happy. I want Brad to be happy. Just one day at a time. For both of us’, she penned.
It was initially said she felt ‘heartbroken’ by her marriage’s demise when stories first surfaced in January, but after ditching her wedding ring and £200,000 engagement ring, sources claim the romance is now over ‘for good’.
‘Olivia is already talking about divorce because it is feeling very final and over for her,’ the insider told The Sun.
‘She’s worked too hard on her career to let it fall apart because of her relationship going south.’
They added that Olivia, who recently moved into a new London apartment by herself, is now ‘getting her ducks in a row and thinking of the future’.
‘She’s still determined to focus on work and knows she can’t just fall apart.’
The source also says she now needs ‘space away from Bradley’, having spent 10 years together.
Olivia, who rose to fame on Love Island in 2017, knew Bradley before she became a household name, having met the midfielder in 2015 through mutual friends while on a night out in the West End club Libertine.
She then entered the ITV2 villa in an act of revenge after he cheated on her.
While Olivia had a brief fling with Chris Hughes, they split shortly after the show ended, allowing her to reconcile with Bradley in 2018.
The Gillingham player popped the question in late 2019, and after multiple delays due to the pandemic and Bradley getting injured, they finally made it down the aisle in June 2023.
Olivia – who has an estimated net worth of £6million – and Bradley went all out with their nuptials, celebrating at London’s Bulgari hotel after walking through an archway of 10,000 roses in her £30,000 Galia Lahav dress to say ‘I do.’
Alas, it wasn’t to be ’til death do us part’, with Olivia already unfollowing Bradley on Insta, despite keeping ‘Dack’ in her display name.
In contrast, Bradley has been photographed looking downcast on several occasions, also still wearing his wedding ring.
