Olivia Attwood, a television personality, engaged in a seven-hour celebratory outing on Tuesday after initially intending to expose her ex-partner, Bradley Dack, with screenshots of his alleged infidelity. Attwood had teased the release of "messy" screenshots, branding Dack's new romantic interest, Emily Moloney, as his "bit on the side."
Earlier in the day, Attwood, who is currently in a relationship with Pete Wicks, referred to Moloney as a "professional seat warmer." This comment followed reports of Dack and Moloney being seen together. However, Attwood ultimately opted not to share the screenshots, citing her manager's advice to "be the bigger person."
Instead of publicizing the alleged evidence, Attwood embarked on a night of retail therapy with a friend, purchasing Christian Louboutin shoes before attending a dinner.
"So the screenshots are on pause because my manager wanted me to be the bigger person," Attwood explained from a bar at Selfridges. "So I'm going to have a spontaneous night out but I'm wearing vans so obviously we're going to go and buy some shoes."
After acquiring the designer footwear, Attwood changed from her Vans and proceeded to Freedom Bar in Soho. She documented the evening on her Instagram Stories, writing, "Took the new babies for spin around their 2nd home."
Attwood had earlier fueled anticipation on her Instagram Stories, telling her followers, "Guys I'm about to get sooooo messy are you ready? Screen shot time...."
Last week, Dack was seen with Moloney, despite Moloney's earlier claims that they were not dating. She had stated, "This is absolutely out of hand now. So, I will say this clearly for you. I am categorically not in a relationship with Brad, nor have I ever been."
Reports suggest that Bradley and Emily have quietly reunited following his split from Attwood in January, during which time Attwood began a relationship with Pete Wicks.
Following the "hard launch" of her relationship with Wicks, Attwood posted on social media Tuesday morning, reflecting on "poor judgement over the past decade" but also appearing to criticize Moloney as a "professional seat warmer." Attwood wrote, "Took 7 months of people trying to make me think I was crazy and they are all coming out the wood work now" and referred to Moloney as "a bit on the side," seemingly in response to the reunited couple.
Attwood also shared a screenshot of a WhatsApp message that read, "Love how you didn't say a word and then they pulled the covers down themselves.....wooops no one likes a side." She captioned it, "THESE PEOPLE GET THEMSELVES TANGLED IN THEIR OWN WEB OF LIES. All you have to do is sit back and wait, Took 7 months of people trying to make me think I was crazy and they are all coming out the wood work now," adding a rat emoji.
Images circulated by the Daily Mail reportedly show Dack and Moloney together, which Attwood apparently interpreted as confirmation of their relationship. A source told the Daily Mail that Attwood "clearly had a hunch that Bradley was back with Emily in March" and suggested that friends of Attwood informed a newspaper about the couple.
Emily Moloney later appeared to respond on Instagram with a post that included the caption, "Back when I thought a bad passport picture would be the worst thing I saw of myself that week," accompanied by a laughing emoji. She also seemingly referenced being at Marks & Spencer with Bradley, writing, "god forbid a girl needs a rotisserie chicken."
Pete Wicks had recently confirmed his relationship with Attwood, sharing photos of them together and stating that he feared he might "embarrass" her by publicly announcing their romance. He told his friend Sam Thompson that he had discussed going public with Attwood, but a clip from her podcast ultimately prompted him to share the images.
Attwood and Wicks have been the subject of speculation, having been seen together on multiple occasions since her split from Dack at the beginning of the year. Wicks's decision to share photos marked the first time he had publicly showcased a relationship online.
