Olivia Attwood has fuelled rumours of a split from boyfriend Chris Hughes after sharing an emotional message on Twitter.

The former Motorsport Grid girl told her 281,000 followers that she needed to take a moment to “disconnect”.

“Sorry I have been so quiet, sometimes in life you just need a minute to disconnect and remember what's important,” she tweeted.

“But thank you all for your lovely comments and messages, I can't reply to them all but I do see them and they feed my soul. I love you guys.”

The tweet, which has since been deleted, read: “And sometimes you can do everything in your power to make something work, and it's still not enough.”

It came hours after she joined Hughes at Ministry Of Sound for his rap debut, where the pair reportedly had an explosive row.

A source told The Sun that Hughes “flew into a jealous rage” when he spotted Attwood dancing with another man.

“Chris flipped and flew into a jealous rage when he saw Olivia dancing with Amber's gay dancer friends,” they said.

“Amber was doing the same and Kem wasn't fussed in the slightest, they were her gay mates.

“But Chris was so furious he had to be held back by security.”

Attwood and Hughes met and finished third on the most recent series of Love Island, but were rocked by cheating accusations on leaving the ITV2 villa after Attwood was pictured with her ex-boyfriend Bradley Dack.

Standard Online has contacted a representative for Attwood for comment.
