On June 3, 2023, Olivia Attwood walked down the aisle in a stunning £300,000 lace-sleeved gown designed by Galia Lahav, appearing as the picture-perfect bride. She exchanged vows with footballer Bradley Dack at the luxurious Bulgari hotel in Knightsbridge, surrounded by 10,000 roses and over 25,000 individual flowers. Family, including her parents Kai and Jen, witnessed the emotional moments as she signed what seemed to be the marriage register alongside witnesses Ronnie Vint and her brother Max.
No Official Record of Marriage
Despite the televised ceremony featured in ITV’s 17-episode series Olivia Meets Her Match, no record exists of the marriage at the General Register Office, which archives all marriages and civil partnerships in England and Wales. The document signed during the event appeared blank, lacking standard details like date, place, names, and occupations required on a Marriage Schedule.
Checks at the City of Westminster Archives Centre confirm no trace of Olivia Jade Attwood and Bradley Paul Dack marrying in 2023 or 2022.
Insiders Reveal Motives and Deception
A source close to Attwood states, “They never married; it was all about the cash. Can you believe anything Olivia tells us anymore? It will be very disappointing for her fans. Her team brokered the deal, but she didn’t actually get married. What a sham, what a huge lie to tell your fans.”
Friends explain that the Bulgari hotel lacked a marriage license at the time, prompting plans to complete legal paperwork six weeks later at a Cheshire registry office. However, Attwood discovered “a number of mistruths” during this period, halting the process. The source notes the decade-long relationship involved deep love, but Attwood ultimately could not commit legally.
Dack, now with Gillingham FC, offered no comment through the club’s press office.
Lasting Symbols and Recent Events
The couple marked the day with matching tattoos: “Till death” on Attwood’s arm and “Do us part” on Dack’s wrist. For three years, they portrayed themselves as married on podcasts and TV, with Attwood using “Dack” professionally until recently removing it from social media.
Seven weeks after announcing their divorce, Attwood was photographed kissing Kiss FM co-host Pete Wicks in a Soho hotel.
Podcast and TV Insights
On her podcast So Wrong It’s Right, Attwood introduced Dack as her “most requested guest,” asking, “What’s it like being married to an absolute queen?” He replied, “At times it’s difficult; in a lot of things we’re the same and in others we’re really not.”
Last February on Newly Weds, Attwood described the wedding as “traumatising,” saying, “The engagement – I could do that one hundred times… [but] the rest of it? No. It felt like my lungs were closing in on me every day.”
ITV has promoted Attwood across shows like Loose Women, This Morning, and documentaries including Getting Filthy Rich, The Price Of Perfection, and Olivia Attwood Vs The Trolls. She recently hosted The Heat and eyes the Love Island presenter role.
Relationship Background
Attwood and Dack dated in 2017 before she joined Love Island series three amid his infidelity. She gained fame coupling with Chris Hughes, leading to a short-lived reality series. They rekindled in 2019, with ITV following their journey from 2020 engagement to the 2023 ceremony.
ITV has been approached for comment.
