TOWIE’s Danielle Armstrong reveals the real reason behind her split from Lockie
The Only Way Is Essex star Danielle Armstrong has taken to Snapchat to set the record straight about her breakup with James Lock.
Sunday’s first episode of The Only Way is Marbella saw Danielle surprise cast members by showing up in Marbella after initially insisting that she would not visit the same destination as her ex-boyfriend.
Fans of the 28-year-old star questioned her reasoning behind ending the relationship with ‘Lockie’. The pair confronted each other about the breakup during the episode, and it seemed the Essex lad did not want things to end with Danielle. Despite Lockie’s wishes, it looked as though she had decided to call it a day due to the fact that James did not want a marriage and children.
However, Danielle has since revealed that this was not the true cause of the split. After the dramatic episode aired just two days ago (October 9), the TV personality weighed in on Snapchat, saying: “So I’m getting a lot of Tweets of people asking why me and James actually broke up.”
“I think obviously we did discuss about future and marriage and stuff and things like and he said he didn’t want that – but that wasn’t just the reason why we broke up.”
Danielle continued to explain that there were other reasons as to why she walked away from James; the most important of which was his behaviour.
She said: “There was a lot of things he did in our relationship that upset me, he did let me down, and he just wasn’t really a very good boyfriend.”
The TOWIE girl was eager to squash rumours that she was desperate to settle down, adding: “So I really don’t want people out there thinking ‘Oh God, someone just get married to her and knock the girl up!’ – that is NOT the case. I’ve got a lot to do in my career, I’m young, and that’s it!”
Undoubtedly, this won’t be the last we hear from the pair who have been on and off for many series now. It will be interesting to see how they both cope with being on holiday together in the upcoming episodes. Will they be able to keep the peace?
The Only Way Is Marbella continues Wednesday at 10pm on ITVBe.
