Olivia Attwood has revealed she wants her next boyfriend to ‘love bomb’ her as she’s looking for ‘obsession’ after separating from her husband.
The 34-year-old TV star recently split from sportsman Bradley Dack – but Olivia insists she doesn’t regret falling in love with the soccer star.
She told Attitude magazine: ‘Do you know what? I love love and I actually, despite any of my relationships in the past, I’ve never regretted falling in love.’
Calling it ‘one of the most unique and pure human experiences’, she argued that ‘even if it’s with a complete and utter trash bag – in that moment you felt something’.
‘And again, my therapist would be smashing his head into the screen right now. But I want obsession,’ she added.

Olivia is actually looking for a man to ‘love bomb’ her after confirming she had separated from footballer Bradley, 32, in January.
She shared: ‘I don’t want someone who feels indifferent about me. Like, love bomb me up. I want the face tattoo on the second date. I want to feel all the feels.’
Olivia has also encouraged her fans not to overthink relationship issues.
The former Love Island contestant insists that she won’t hold back when she meets a prospective partner.
She explained: ‘On advice, I can’t promise you you’ll find the stability or a long-term good situation. But I think that society has made people talk so much about stuff all the time. We live online, we live on dating apps.
‘I think go out, have that holiday romance, have the stories, because at the end of the day, when we’re on our deathbeds, that’s all we’re gonna f**king have anyway.’
Meanwhile, Olivia recently confessed that her life has become ‘chaotic’ since her split from Bradley.
The reality star – who first met Bradley at a nightclub back in 2015 – said on Instagram: ‘Thought I would just jump on, just say hello. It’s been a minute. I’m still hanging in. I go to work. I unpack five million boxes.
‘Sleep, repeat and live on coffee. That is basically my life and it’s pretty chaotic still. I’m kind of getting there, but it’s a process.’
She was pictured with best pal and radio co-host Pete Wicks partying away her divorce blues in Soho until 3am into Valentine’s Day before marking the day in iconic fashion with a high-end shopping trip.
‘My first Valentines without a boyfriend since I was like 14 years old lol so I took myself shopping obvs [sic],’ she wrote on a Story alongside a rail of her purchases.
Last month, following weeks of speculation, the Bad Boyfriends presenter showed that she was unpacking boxes in her new London apartment by herself.
Olivia admitted that ‘vulnerability is not [her] bag’, feeling especially anxious about getting personal on social media, as it’s akin to ‘bleeding in shark-infested waters’.
However, in the name of transparency, the reality star revealed that she was ‘crying [herself] to sleep’ as she navigated some major life changes.
‘I never expected to be moving into this apartment alone. And I’m in over my depth for sure,’ she wrote.
Addressing her marriage breakdown directly, Olivia proved there’s no bad blood, despite swirling reports that their relationship ended due to a ‘breach of trust’ on his part.
‘I just want to be happy. I want Brad to be happy. Just one day at a time. For both of us,’ she penned.
