Vicky Pattison: The Secret
To, Vicky, 32, revealed the devastating impact the break-up had on her after he was caught getting close to other women on a lads’ holiday to Dubai in November 2018.
“I was on this trajectory to be married and probably to have kids now,” she explained. “And as far as everyone else was concerned, it was dead happy. As far as even I was concerned, it was dead happy. I’d convinced myself. And everything was rosy and it was fairy tale and romantic and it was going to be great. And then, of course, it all fell apart.
“I’m not going to cry, because I think I’m far enough away from it now and I’m happy enough in myself that I’m not going to cry.
But that’s probably the first time in a year and a half I can say that because it was a really hard thing for us to get over.”
Luckily, the former Geordie Shore star went on to say the brutal break-up was “the best thing that ever happened” to her, as she’s now completely smitten with Essex boy Ercan, 26.
“That was a year and a half ago and I look at my life now. I’m with a wonderful man who I fall asleep to every night who makes me feel happy, comfortable, secure, loved, safe, protected,” she gushed. “All the things a woman wants to feel. I’m not even being sexist here, probably all the things a man wants to feel as well.”
previously reported that Vicky had liked a string of wedding-themed snaps on Instagram, including bridal gowns and engagement rings. While marriage would no doubt be the icing on the cake for her, she says she’s in no rush this time around.
“Yeah, I haven’t got kids and we’re not married and I’m not engaged or anything, but I don’t need all those things,” she explained. “I kind of think I was rushing all those things because I wasn’t happy. And I thought I would be happy if I got the next one.”
Vicky began dating Ercan around 18 months ago following her split from John, whose flirty behaviour with other women was revealed in a series of videos just seven months before they were set to tie the knot.
“That was probably one of the worst setbacks of my personal life,” Vicky concluded. “I really hope I don’t feel it again. I really don’t want anyone to feel that.
It’s the worst.”
It’s certainly made you much stronger, Vicky!
