Love Island’s Olivia Attwood calls Chris Hughes ‘a hero’ for putting up with her – after he forgives her for kissing ex-boyfriend Bradley Dack on a night out

OLIVIA Attwood has gushed about her forgiving boyfriend Chris Hughes as she called him a "hero" for putting up with her.

The Love Island star landed herself in hot water with her hunky boyfriend for being pictured getting close to her ex Bradley Dack and nuzzling his neck outside an Essex nightclub.

A close friend confirmed to The Sun Online that Chris was “furious and heartbroken” after seeing the pictures of Olivia all over Dack, who she enjoyed a lengthy romance with while he was at previous club Gillingham.

The pal revealed Chris told his close friends "it's all over" when the images were released.

However the pair managed to make amends just as their big money magazine hit the shelves today, and Olivia further reiterated her appreciation for her man on Twitter.

She wrote: "Make no mistake. I know what I have. Chris is everything people think he is and so much more. He puts up with this wild child like a hero x."

Liv's comments came hours after Chris told fans he had forgiven her for getting into a taxi with her former footballer beau.

Posting a picture of them together on Instagram smiling for the camera, besotted Chris captioned the shot: "Come to support my girl on her new project, exciting opportunity for her!"

He continued: "Proud of how far she's come in this short space of time, deserves every opportunity that comes her way."

"She's been a princess to me ever since we landed back in the UK, and I don't blame people for judging as it's the world we live in, but understand I'm not naive to this situation."

Chris concluded: "Unfortunately Olivia put herself in this position unintentionally, nobody understands the situation like ourselves, and that's the main point behind today."

Love sick Chris' post comes just hours before their first big money magazine deal hits the shelves where they insist they are "moving in together" and "getting married".

Olivia revealed the pair were ready to take the next step as she said: “The first time Chris came to my flat he said: ‘This is well nice, I think I’m going to live here.’

“He asked me to get him a key cut the other day!”

Chris added: “That’s not strictly true Liv, you asked me if I wanted a key cut, I thought you got given a key when you moved house and that was the only one you could have.

“It’s happening though, we’re moving in together and we’ll get married soon!”

The country stud, 24, went on to reveal that their wedding will be sooner rather than later.
