Olivia Attwood and her husband Bradley Dack are selling their £1 million Cheshire mansion as they plan to relocate to London, insiders told the Daily Mail, describing the move as a practical decision rather than a sign of relationship trouble.

A source close to the couple said the decision was driven by logistics: both are increasingly based in and around the capital and keeping a home in Cheshire had become impractical. "The house move is purely so that Olivia and Bradley can be in London. Owning their Cheshire home when they are both based in the capital now is completely pointless," the source said, adding that Olivia’s presenting commitments and Bradley’s football career require them to be near London.

Attwood, a former Love Island contestant turned television presenter, has a busy schedule that includes regular appearances on national daytime shows and other projects. The source said she was spending long periods on trains commuting between Cheshire and London, and that the couple initially moved to Cheshire when Dack was signed by Blackburn Rovers. Dack moved to Kent last year when he signed for Gillingham.

The couple have acknowledged a difficult period in recent months but have denied they are on the verge of a split. Attwood told The Sun that she would address any major personal news directly via her own social channels and described the past year as lacking balance. "At the minute, in the last year, there's been no balance at all," she said, adding that she had made a conscious decision to prioritise work and that its demands had an impact on her personal life. "Me and Brad are in a place right now where we're trying to work out how we can connect better. Because I give a lot of myself to this job..." she said.

Earlier this summer, images of Attwood appearing close to a friend in Ibiza prompted public scrutiny and, she later acknowledged, caused upset for Dack. The pair have also faced security concerns: in July Attwood said their Cheshire home was targeted by intruders while she was working in Spain. She said the break-in was interrupted by the couple’s private security team and a dog unit and described the incident as distressing.

An insider said the burglary influenced the decision to sell, noting the couple have invested significantly in security and that the house often stood empty while they worked elsewhere. "The burglary obviously didn't help matters either. Olivia and Brad are spending a fortune on security, and most of the time the house sits empty," the source said. "This has nothing to do with any relationship issues, it's purely logistical, and they're planning for their future."

The immediate plan, according to the source, is to find a larger property in London for the short term and later buy a longer-term home in Surrey. Attwood told The Sun she and Dack were emotionally attached to their Cheshire house but conceded that "Cheshire doesn't work for us anymore because we're not there."

Representatives for Attwood and Dack did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The sale follows a year in which Attwood has expanded her television profile with documentaries and presenting roles, and Dack has continued his professional football career away from the northwest, factors the couple say have reshaped their domestic priorities.
