Olivia Attwood Sizzles in Black Bikini Amid TikTok Backlash in Tenerife

Olivia Attwood did her best to brush off the backlash surrounding her recent TikTok posts as she topped up her tan in Tenerife on Thursday.  

The former Love Island star, 34, who is currently filming the second series of her show Bad Boyfriends on the island, looked sensational in the eye-catching two-piece, which featured a triangle bikini top and matching tie-side bottoms. 

Posing for the camera, she accessorised her poolside look with a stylish black cowboy hat. 

She also gave fans a glimpse of her designer handbags, the Goyard Saint Louis tote bag, which retails for £1,795, and a chic black-and-white Chanel beach tote bag. 

She captioned the bikini-clad snaps: ‘Good Morning (cowboy emoji) (why am I sat on a drain? I don’t actually know)’

The sizzling snaps come after Olivia accused TikTok subscribers of ‘lacking humour’ and ‘taking things way too seriously’ as she suffered backlash for a perceived swipe at former boyfriend Chris Hughes, 32, and his new relationship. 

The TV personality began a year-long romance with Chris on the third series of Love Island before meeting and subsequently marrying Gillingham footballer Bradley Dack, 31, in 2023. 

But she has attracted criticism across social media for appearing to poke fun at her former boyfriend’s surprise relationship with JoJo Siwa, 22, after he bonded with the American influencer on the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother.

Responding to the backlash on Wednesday, Olivia claimed it reflected her critics’ lack of humour and inability to understand sarcasm.  

She said: ‘I feel like on Instagram my huns always pass the vibe check, they know my sense of humour. On TikTok, it feels like everyone takes everything so literally.

‘There’s no nuance, there’s no sense of humour, and I kind of feel if you’ve got no sense of humour then that’s on you, it’s not really a me problem, you know?

She added: ‘If you can’t tell when I’m saying something sarcastically,  I don’t know what to tell you. 

‘People always ask me how I manage in this industry for eight years with social media and stuff, and the telly stuff and whatever. Literally, my only piece of advice is don’t deep it. Nothing is ever that deep. 

‘If you’ve got your health, if you’ve got a roof over your head, it’s not that deep. None of us are getting out of here alive guys, let’s just try and have some fun. 

‘People are having full-on Thread conversations about me, discussing something that’s not even true. It’s so twisted. 

‘And if I was to comment, they’d be like “How dare you defend yourself? You’re so mean.”‘ 

Since meeting as contestants on Celebrity Big Brother in April, Chris and JoJo have been inseparable, but Olivia has been critical of her former boyfriend’s unexpected new romance. 

Responding to a question on TikTok, one user asked: ‘I’m sorry, I need to know what’s Olivia Attwood’s reaction to this Chris and JoJo thing.’

Olivia then gave a cutting one-liner and wrote in the caption: ‘She’s really famous,’ hinting that she believes he is only dating the influencer because of her celebrity status.

She subsequently posted a new video in which she mimes the lyrics to Pretty Little Baby, while her husband Bradley gently caresses her face.

When it came to the words ‘pretty little baby’, Olivia fluttered her eyes at the footballer before bursting into laughter as he kissed her on the forehead. 

Chris and JoJo have remained coy about their relationship status, despite the former Love Island contestant sharing a video which appears to capture them in bed together.  

When asked about her connection to Chris on breakfast show Lorraine, JoJo said: ‘It’s so funny to me. It’s so funny how straight up people are.’

When pressed on whether they’d had a chat about being ‘exclusive’, she continued: ‘Chris and I have had a lot of chats. We’ve never gone into the kitchen and the head is turning, we’ve never had that version.

She added: ‘He’s the best man.’

JoJo was pressed again on This Morning, with host Alison Hammond saying: ‘I’m so invested in you and Chris, I don’t care what anyone says, I want to know.

‘I’m loving this little relationship I think it’s beautiful, but just for the record, what is your relationship status with Chris right now?’

JoJo laughed and appeared shocked before replying: ‘I will say he is up there as one of my favourite people in the entire world…

‘He makes me happier than I think I’ve ever been, he makes me feel so full as me, he’s a really good one that’s been the most incredible addition to my life.’

During her one-woman show on Monday evening, JoJo paid tribute to the Love Island star with her cover of Bette Davies’ Eyes by changing the lyrics to ‘Chris Hughes’ eyes.’

Several fans then spotted his reaction from the back of the venue, with the presenter beaming before blowing JoJo a kiss.

The Dance Moms star then revealed a rhinestone-covered Sunderland football shirt, the team he supports, after they were promoted to the Premier League on Saturday, telling the crowd: ‘This is for somebody special who’s here tonight.’
