Emily Moloney has intensified a public feud by playfully addressing her recent photographs with Bradley Dack, a move that risks further angering his former partner, Olivia Attwood. Attwood had previously labeled Moloney as Dack's "bit on the side" and a "professional benchwarmer" following the circulation of images showing the pair together.
Moloney responded to the photos, which depicted her and Dack in a casual outing at a petrol station on a Sunday, by sharing a video on social media. In the clip, she humorously struggled to take an ideal passport photograph, captioning it: "Back when I thought a bad passport picture would be the worst thing I saw of myself that week." She further jested about needing a "rotisserie chicken" and expressed frustration over negative perceptions, stating, "You have one bad day and suddenly the whole world thinks your ugly. Such a shame."
The post garnered support from friends and was notably liked by Molly Mae Hague, who is a close associate of Maura Higgins, a known rival of Attwood.
Attwood, however, did not find humor in the situation. After initially teasing the release of "messy" screenshots related to Dack, she announced a pause on sharing them, citing her manager's advice to be the "bigger person." Instead, Attwood documented a spontaneous night out involving champagne, the purchase of Christian Louboutin heels, and a visit to a Soho bar.
Earlier, Attwood had publicly criticized Moloney, calling her a "professional seat warmer" and a "bit on the side" in light of the photographs of her and Dack. Moloney had previously denied a relationship with Dack four months prior, but the recent images appeared to contradict her earlier statements. Reports suggest that Moloney and Dack may have quietly reunited following Dack's split from Attwood in January, amid Attwood's developing romance with Pete Wicks.
Attwood, who has since publicly confirmed her relationship with Pete Wicks, acknowledged having "poor judgment over the past decade" in a social media post. She also alluded to past situations, writing, "Took 7 months of people trying to make me think I was crazy and they are all coming out the wood work now," and included a rat emoji, seemingly directed at those involved.
Photographs obtained by the Daily Mail appear to confirm Dack and Moloney were together, which a source close to Attwood indicated she had suspected since March. The source also suggested that Attwood's friends had shared information about Dack and Moloney with a newspaper as part of a strategy related to her own public image during her transition to a relationship with Wicks. Amidst the ongoing public exchange, Moloney's lighthearted response to the photos has added another layer to the unfolding drama between the three individuals.
