As celebrity interviewees go, they don’t come much better than Olivia Attwood. The Love Island star is entertaining, warm and honest – and, unlike some stars, no questions are off limits for her.
She’s officially with us today to chat about her new jewellery range with Abbott Lyon, but Olivia, 31, totally gets that what we really want to know about is her upcoming wedding to Blackburn Rangers midfielder Bradley Dack. And fortunately for us, she’s more than happy to answer our many questions about her big day!
When it comes to organising weddings, Liv is now something of a pro, having arranged and cancelled two before this one. A combination of the pandemic and busy schedules meant her and Brad's first attempts to tie the knot didn't quite succeed. But this summer, it's (hopefully) a case of third time lucky, and the star tells us she feels like she's learnt a lot from her previous two experiences.
And her biggest lesson? To "drastically" reduce her guest list! Olivia and Bradley first met in a West End nightclub in 2015, before she entered the Love Island villa and embarked on an ill-fated romance with Chris Hughes.
After she and Chris parted ways seven months later, she rekindled her relationship with Brad in early 2018 and, a year later, the pair got engaged. Now, it’s full steam ahead with their long-awaited wedding.
Here, Olivia tells us what she and Brad, 29, argue about, her thoughts on having children, and why she’s keen to brave the I’m A Celebrity… jungle once more.
Hi, Olivia! You’ve opened up on Instagram about wedding stress. What issues are you facing as you plan the big day?
