Bradley Dacks Photos Spark Olivia Attwood Drama
Emily Moloney, who was once seeing reality TV star Olivia Attwood’s ex-boyfriend Bradley Dack, suffered trolling on social media four months ago after a red-top...
She put out a statement furiously denying the accusations, claiming to be the victim of a vicious briefing campaign.
‘This is absolutely out of hand now,’ wrote the self-styled influencer. ‘So, I will say this clearly for you. I am categorically not in a relationship with Brad, nor have I actually ever been.’
Fast-forward to today, and it seems that either Emily was telling porkies in her post or she has now rekindled her romance with footballer Dack.
Because I hear that he has been spending quite a lot time at her flat in south-east London and, as my exclusive pictures show, they have certainly become very close again.
In fact, last Sunday afternoon they appeared to be inseparable as they drove to her local station in a Land Rover Defender. Dack, dressed in an Adidas football kit, was seen holding a food bag as they returned to her car before heading off to enjoy what observers said was a ‘Sunday funday’.
Emily was seen grinning rather smugly as she walked alongside former Blackburn Rovers star Dack, 32.
Sources close to the couple say he has been spending ‘more and more time’ at Emily’s in recent weeks. The couple appear to have quietly reunited following Dack’s shock split from Olivia, 35, in January, amid her secret romance with former The Only Way Is Essex and Strictly Come Dancing star, Pete Wicks.

As well as enjoying cosy nights in, Dack and Emily went to a Lewis Capaldi gig at London’s Hyde Park a fortnight ago. They both shared images from the show, but didn’t say they were together.
My source says: ‘Olivia clearly had a hunch that Bradley was back with Emily back in March and, of course – in keeping with her carefully orchestrated publicity campaign to get her off the hook for growing close to Pete while still with Bradley – her friends told a newspaper about them.
‘Emily really hit back. She went hard. Maybe they weren’t together at the time, but they really seem to be now. Bradley has been a regular visitor at Emily’s and they certainly had a Sunday funday.

‘Olivia was very much trying to save her own skin,’ says my source. ‘She wanted the world to think she was the one who had been hard done by, and that Bradley was in the wrong. Maybe she was right with Emily, maybe she wasn’t.

‘But she was furious Emily insisted she wasn’t with Bradley. Now she will absolutely feel vindicated.’
And if these pictures won’t be enough to rile Olivia, her new man Pete also shares an agent with Emily. ‘That will make for some interesting conversations,’ says my snitch.
Olivia began dating Dack in 2015, before she appeared on Love Island. But they split ahead of her going on the show.
On the programme, she met Chris Hughes, who she went on to have a long-term romance with while also making several ITV reality shows.
Yet when they parted ways in 2018, Olivia rekindled her romance with Dack and they got engaged a year later.

Then, in July 2023, they claimed to have got married in a lavish ceremony at the Bvlgari hotel in Knightsbridge and made an ITV show, Olivia Marries Her Match, to feature her big day. In May, the Daily Mail revealed that it wasn’t a legal wedding – and, in fact, they were not married at all.
Dack and Olivia have since left their flash apartment overlooking the Thames in Battersea, south-west London. He has moved back in with his parents – which is close to where Emily lives.
And three months ago pictures of Olivia and Pete kissing in a Soho bar found their way to her preferred tabloid newspaper, which appeared to confirm their romance. They were also spotted sharing a hotel room at the Brit awards in Manchester in late February.
Dack didn’t ever address whether or not he had cheated on Olivia, leaving their fans to make their own minds up.
‘Bradley and Olivia certainly went through some mess,’ says one source. ‘It was pretty toxic at the end. Maybe now they can have their happy ever afters.’
