I'm a Celebrity's Olivia Attwood breaks down in tears after being verbally attacked

Olivia Attwood sobbed in her car after a stranger kicked off at her in a park.

The I'm a Celebrity contestant had been walking her dog, a Carpathian/German Shepherd mix named Lola when another dog walker verbally abused her. Speaking to the camera, on her Instagram Stories, the reality TV star said it was the first time she had cried since having to leave the jungle on medical grounds.

She was clearly shaken as tears ran down her face as she told her fans about the confrontation, where the stranger called her a "f***** crazy b****". Olivia claimed to feel "defenceless" as she said it was one of the "f***** up things about being in this industry".

Olivia sobbed as she said: "I can't believe I'm literally crying on my s tories but I literally just had the most awful experience. I've had the most awful experience, I literally can't believe what people are actually like.

"This is the first time I've cried in like, well since after the jungle, and before that was like two years so you know I literally never f****ng cry. I was just in the park with the dog and there was like a medium sized cockapoo and Lola went over to say hello and they were all wagging tails like no issues."

"I've never had an issue with my dog and another dog or a human ever, I've got like one of the best behaved dogs in the country. Like, she wouldn't be off the lead if she was a problem. And I was like walking over and as I walked over, the woman lunged in and picked up her dog for no reason."

She said the woman then kicked off and started to scream and shout at her and it spooked her rescue dog, Lola. Olivia said: "Obviously it freaked Lola out so Lola obviously gives it a bark but didn't f****** bite, didn't make any contact with the dog or the woman. And she turns around to me and is like: 'You're a f****** crazy b***h. I know who you are, you're that f****ng b***h off the telly. You're that f*****g s**g who come off Love Island.' And then she's screaming at me."

The upset celeb went on to say that bystanders didn't help - they just stood videoing her as she tried to get hold of her dog which had now run off.

Olivia ended the clip as she said: "People are just evil. And I can't believe I've just f****ng cried on Instagram."
