Olivia Attwood was praised by her husband, Bradley Dack, as “my beautiful wife” as he marked her latest birthday – but he also shared a warning that left her concerned
Football hunk Bradley Dack has paid a gushing tribute to wife Olivia Attwood to mark her birthday. The Gillingham FC midfielder, 31, has been married to former Love Island contestant Olivia since 2023.
On Friday, the TV babe turned 34-years-old – and is preparing to celebrate her happy returns this Saturday night. Taking to Instagram on the actual day of her birth, Bradley paid a gushing tribute to his wife as they prepared to celebrate together.
He uploaded a string of images of them from across the years – selecting a close up of them kissing on their wedding day as the hero image of the album. Other snaps showed the couple in bars and at home and, of course, on a beach in Dubai – with beaming smiles being a consistent feature on their loved-up photos.
In a heartfelt message to Olivia, the footballer wrote: “From how it is now to where it started and everything in between. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my beautiful wife.
“So proud of the person you have become and continue to be.. You’ve been there through it all and always had my back, so I’m always grateful to have you on my team cause I couldn’t ask for anyone better to do life with. I hope you have a special day and then we can really celebrate tomorrow.”
And he signed off adding: “P.S there may be some embarrassing videos coming up on this app today. Love You” – along with crying-with-laughter emojis.
Olivia appeared to take the threat of embarrassing videos seriously as she joked back that she may take legal action against him if he shared anything too damning.
In an amusing response, she wrote: “My legal team is on standby, don’t make me call them” – but also added emotional faced emojis and a black heart emoji to her comment.
Olivia shot to fame in 2017 when she was a contestant on Love Island in which she partnered with recent Celebrity Big Brother contestant Chris Hughes as they embarked on an ultimately doomed romance. While the pair grew close in the villa, the romance soured once the cameras turned off and they returned to their lives in the UK.
The couple endured a bitter break-up – and Olivia rushed back into the arms of her now husband, who she reportedly dated before she entered the Love Island villa during season three of the now long-running ITV reality dating show. Olivia has enjoyed further fame on camera as a cast member of the reality show The Only Way Is Essex, and she also hosts a range of investigative documentaries for ITV.
Liv and Brad swapped vows on 3 June 2023 in an intimate ceremony at a five-star hotel in Knightsbridge. The couple said said “I Do” in front of 80 guests, including family friends, and Love Island stars including Amber Davies and Georgia Harrison.
The couple have welcomed cameras into their own lives since 2020 in the reality docu-series Olivia Meets Her Match which shows how the couple are getting on in their relationship.
The couple previously gushed over their plans to marry – and to continue their reality show that counted down to their big day. In a trailer released back in 2023, Olivia said: “This is the moment we have been waiting for. This is going to be a fairytale. Husband and wife.”
Bradley then added: “I’m about to marry the love of my life. [I won’t cry] as I don’t want to mess up my make-up.” The series is yet to return to ITV since the most recent batch of episodes which were released in 2023.
