Jennifer Zamparelli has told how she once broke up with husband Lau over text

Jennifer Zamparelli has revealed she split up with her husband Lau once via text - before going on to marry him.

The Dubliner who has been happily married to her hubby for 9 years was discussing romantic break-ups on a segment of her morning show.

The RTE 2FM presenter told her Jennifer Zamparelli show’s listeners on Monday that a good place to dump a partner is at the park.

She said: “I broke up with Lau over text once - obviously that didn’t go great as we are now married with two kids and a dog.

“But is there an ideal way to do it?”

Jennifer explained that time is a great healer when it comes to getting over a painful break-up.

She gave some advice to her listeners saying: “I sound like my mother on today’s show but she was right when she said that time is a healer.

“Fill that time with seeing your friends, going for massages, getting your hair done, taking yourself out for lunch, book a holiday, maybe get yourself a little Yorkshire Terrier.

“That’s what I did

“I did get a dog when I broke up. I did. Probably not the ideal time.

Jennifer added that it is difficult to block an ex straight after a break-up.

“That’s really really hard to do.

“There is that period where you’re doubting your decision.

“It’s very good advice to block everything and mute everything and then you’re not triggered or you see them doing something amazing.

Jennifer continued to suggest locations where break-ups could take place.

She said: “Parks are good.”

“I knew someone who had a spot to break up with people.

“So he used to bring the girls to a certain place - because he’d had situations in the past where if he’d go around to her house, he’d find it hard to leave if she was upset.

“He used to meet them on Sandymount beach so she wouldn’t get too emotional.

“Then he’d do the hug and walk away. He’d get in the car and ramp up the music.”

The Dubliner advised couples on the verge of splitting, not to have one last romp before the break-up.

“Don’t do that. No, that’s the complete opposite of mute and block.”
