Olivia Attwood has once again expressed her frustration online regarding her former friend whom she referred to as a ‘blood-sucking tick’ following a perceived betrayal earlier this year.
The 34-year-old former Love Island star and Loose Women favorite recently severed ties with her ex-stylist Ryan Kay. Through suggestive TikTok posts, Olivia hinted that her critical remarks could be aimed at him, insinuating that he fits the profile of a “professional victim” who struggles to maintain stable relationships.
Although Olivia did not explicitly name Ryan in her social media outbursts, her devoted followers speculated his involvement, with his name frequently surfacing in the comments.
In one of her videos, Olivia discussed feeling let down by a friend who constantly plays the victim without taking responsibility for their actions. She likened such individuals to ticks, emphasizing how they latch onto others for their own benefit and move on once they have drained their current host.
Addressing the fallout of her friendship with Ryan, Olivia expressed disbelief and disappointment, admitting she failed to see the true colors of someone she trusted. She emphasized the pain of adult friendships breaking down, highlighting the difficulty of forming new connections later in life.
Olivia also touched on the concept of ‘ME-ITIES,’ describing individuals who seek out reasons to be offended online, noting the draining nature of perpetual outrage. She urged people not to use personal diagnoses as excuses for mistreating others but to take responsibility for their actions and strive to be better.
The rift between Olivia and Ryan escalated following rumors about her marriage, particularly after she was pictured on vacation with her friend Pete Wicks. Reports suggest that Ryan chose to side against Olivia, leading to a complete breakdown in their relationship.
Despite the public fallout, Olivia has remained vocal about feeling betrayed and hinted that the full story will eventually come to light. Responding to a fan seeking advice on dealing with a close friend’s betrayal, Olivia emphasized that such actions reflect the betrayer’s character and advised moving on from toxic relationships.
The Mirror has reached out to Olivia’s representatives for comment on the ongoing situation.
