Josie Gibson has split from her boyfriend Terry – just four months after giving birth to their son.
The 33-year-old reality TV star grew "resentful" of the 48-year-old property developer after he opted to sleep in a campervan outside instead of helping out with night feeds in their house, and she is now determined to "smash life" as a single mum.
She said: "I’d never go back now. I need somewhere secure for me and Reg.
"I never wanted to be a single mother, obviously, but there are things you can’t let go.
"So I hope I will smash life as a single mummy. Lots of other women do it."
Josie and Reggie moved out just two days before New Year’s Eve (31.12.18) after claiming Terry "went mad" about her storing too many shoes in the hallway.
She said: "He’s got OCD and just after Christmas, he went mad about too many of my shoes being in the hallway.
"So I kicked off and said, ‘Well, we’ll go then!’ and he went, ‘Alright!’ and bagged up our stuff.
"So Reggie and I headed to a hotel."
Josie admits she has been "no angel" during their relationship, and while she cannot see anyway back for her and Terry, she is pleased he "really cares" about their son.
Speaking to new! magazine, she added: "All that matter is that Reg is alright – and Terry does really care about Reg.
"But things between us have gone too far now."
Last month, Josie revealed Terry had taken up residence in a campervan outside the house.
She said: "I found it extremely difficult at the start. It nearly sent me over the edge.
"He needed feeding every two hours because he was so little after being born premature.
"[Terry] has been sleeping in the campervan in the garden because he says there’s no point in us both being tired. But actually, he’s been getting up and seeing to him a few times recently.
"The first night he did it, he woke up at 1pm the next day. I was like, ‘Heavy night was it?’ And he was like, ‘I feel like I’ve been to a festival for three days.’ I said, ‘I’ve been doing that for three months!’ "
