Kayla Itsines Reflects on the Moment She Realized It Was Time to End Her Relationship with Ex-Fiancé Tobi Pearce, Amid Speculation of Possible Pregnancy

Kayla Itsines has opened up about the day she realised she needed to call off her engagement and break up with her ex-fiancé Tobi Pearce.

The fitness influencer and entrepreneur, 32, parted ways with the EzLicence CEO in 2020, with whom she shares a young daughter, and has remained tight-lipped about the separation until recent months.

Appearing on Mamamia’s No Filter podcast with Kate Langbroek, Itsines cited differences in personality between herself and Tobi, and that she had a gut feeling their relationship wasn’t working out.

‘I think this will relate to so many women, and it’s gonna sound really weird. But one day you wake up, and it just hits you. I woke up and I was like, “This isn’t working. This isn’t for me”,’ she recalled on the podcast.

‘Tobi is a great person, but he’s just not my person. It took time to realise that.’

Itsines previously made scathing remarks about Pearce, calling him ‘money-driven’ and their relationship a ‘battle’.

‘Nothing about my previous relationship was easy. It was always hard. It was always a battle,’ she told the Australian Financial Review last year.

‘We are the polar opposite of one another. I look back and think, “I have no idea how that all happened.”‘

Itsines’ comments come after sparked pregnancy rumours as she travelled to Sydney with her new husband Jae Woodroffe.
