Olivia Attwood has revealed husband Bradley Dack saw 'so much of himself' in the participants of her new ITV2 reality show Bad Boyfriends - and confirmed the footballer will also appear in the series.
The show follows the Loose Woman star, 33, attempts to mould eight unsuspecting men, who are badly behaved, lazy or even unfaithful into the perfect partners.
Bradley, 30, previously admitted cheating on now wife Olivia during the early days of their relationship, which led to their split before she found fame on Love Island. The couple went on to rekindle the romance and eventually tied the knot in 2023.
Speaking ahead of the first episode Olivia said: '[Bradley] said he saw so much of himself in so many of the lads and he was like "Remember when our relationship was like that?" and I was like "Yeah and it was f****** crap"'.
She went on to say that she believed Bradley had matured since then and had gone through the same journey many of the men did during their appearance on the show.

Saying: 'I also I think that sometimes, hetro relationships boys and girls it’s like I do believe men are from Mars and woman are from Venus, not actually understanding how your actions effect the other person'.
Speaking about discovering Bradley's infidelityon her So Wrong It's Right podcast recently, Olivia recalled how she was in Germanyfor the F1 back in 2017 when she got a suspicious call from a blocked number.
Detailing the shock events that followed, she said: 'This girl was really upset and said, 'Hello', and I asked, 'Who's this?'
'She replied, 'It's Brad's girlfriend'. I was like, 'Whoa, whoa. And again, please'.
'Then we had a chat, and (to Bradley) basically, you had been seeing her as well as me.'
Bradley, who appeared on the recent podcast episode with Olivia, sheepishly replied: 'Yep'.
Shortly after the cheating blip with Bradley, Olivia appeared on ITV's Love Island where she shot to fame and met Chris Hughes, who she remained in a relationship with for six months.
After her split with Chris, Olivia rekindled her romance with Bradley, tellingThe Sun:'I feel like we had to break up and fall apart to grow up. And we both grew up a lot in those years.

Elsewhere in the interview Oliviaclaimed Bad Boyfriends features couples with 'bigger foundations' and 'loyalties' than those who meet for the first time on rivals shows like Love Island.
She said that their shared history would also help the participant's relationships survive in the public eye,amid former Love Island starsMolly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury's shock split.
Saying: 'I think the thing about the relationships is that they all have a bigger foundation that existed before the show, so I think when your relationship exists purely on a show and then you're in the public eye, your navigating a new relationship and your navigating your fame'.
'Whats going to work in [Bad Boyfriend's participants] advantage is that they've had history, they've dated for years they have family connections together and i think that is easier than navigating a new surroundings'.

'Their obviously coming into the show with a huge backlog of stuff that’s happened in their relationship, some of them have been together eight years, some of them are trying for kids. There is a serious foundation to these relationships'.
Olivia also said that unlike other shows due to the couples already knowing each other viewers didn't need to wait weeks to see 'loyalty and depth' between the pairs.
'It also isn't live format, we filmed this a few months ago, so there's a decompressing time before it comes out, they are not coming out to the fact [viewers] were just watching it yesterday,'
'And they can process how it went how they feel about it so there are lots of things that work to their advantage, I hope'.
Molly-Mae, 25, took to social media last week to announce the news, with claims since surfacing that Tommy, also 25, was spotted 'brazenly kissing a blonde woman' on a boozy night out during his trip to North Macedonia.
Onlookers have claimed the boxer 'didn't seem to care' who saw him brazenly kiss the blonde as he downed vodka and partied at a nightclub at 2am.
Bad Boyfriends airs 9pm Sunday on ITV2 and ITVX.
