Hollywood actor Will Poulter was in a relationship with model Bobby T for three years, but she claims he ‘ghosted’ her and her son over WhatsApp and left without warning
Will Poulter’s ex-girlfriend has accused him of ‘ghosting’ her and her son after she claims he dumped her ‘without warning’ over WhatsApp. The 32-year-old was in a three-year relationship with model Bobby T, who at 45 is 13 years older than him.
The actor, who shot to fame in E4 sketch show School of Comedy, is thought to have moved on with Top Boy actress Saffron Hocking, 31, after the pair were spotted having lunch and spending time together at Glastonbury Festival and Wimbledon.
But his ex – who says the pair were discussing marriage and had built a life together before Will disappeared ‘like he never existed’ – has taken to social media to publicly blast his actions, especially as he was a stepdad to her young son.
Taking to Instagram, Bobby – whose real name is Erin Campaneris – wrote in her stories: “Just so there’s no confusion, I was in a real relationship for almost three years. We built a life together. We planned the details of our wedding. He wasn’t just in my life. He was in my son’s.”
She continued: “He called him his stepson and they had a real relationship. Because of his age my son only remembers a life when he was there. That was his normal.
“He was there for first days of school and volunteered his his classroom. He came to school meetings and showed up in every way. The school knew him as family.
“Then one day with no warning and no signs of trouble he just ended it over WhatsApp. That was it. Just gone.”
Describing how she was ‘in love’, Bobby said: “We were blindsided. But what hurts most is how easily he disappeared, especially from my son’s perspective. Like he never existed.
“I have waited months in hope that I would have more clarity, but I wasn’t given that by him or his family, who we considered family too.” She went on to say she “didn’t even get their belongings back” after the split, believed to have happened earlier this year.
Detailing how she had faced cruelty and judgment from other women in the wake of the break up, Bobby said: “I am not scorned. I just want the truth to be known so I can move forward with my life in peace. Please let this be all and I will not be sharing any more.”
Will and Bobby were first linked in 2022 when they were seen kissing on the streets of West Hollywood. She lives in America with her son, while Will is thought to split his time between America and the UK.
Speaking of Will and Bobby’s romance, a source said the pair realised their connection “wasn’t going to last long term”. It’s said Bobby’s main priority remains her son.
Will – who has also starred in Hollywood films The Chronicles of Narnia, We Are The Millers, Maze Runner and The Revenant – is said to have struggled with balancing the distance and work.
The source continued to tell The Sun: “He’s known Saffron for a while but they have been spending more time together recently. They were both hosted by Barbour at Glasto and got on like a house on fire. It’s very early days and while they might be telling people they are just friends, the sparks between them are obvious to everyone.” The Mirror has reached out to Will’s reps for comment on this story.
