Speaking to New Idea at the time, Olivia said her split from Ben had been 'heartbreaking'.

'Our relationship was loving, respectful and fun, but in that last year, we started to want different things and drifted apart,' the former Olympic gymnast told the publication.

'It wasn't messy. Things just fizzled out romantically and we became companions rather than lovers,' she insisted.

While their split was amicable, with both parties moving out of the home they rented together, it was a decision that didn't come easy.

Olivia explained the pair tried to make things work for about a year before they decided that they wanted different things.

Previously speaking of their romance, music producer Ben revealed he fell in love with Olivia after they met at an official Ninja training academy.
