Freddy Brazier has opened up about his split from Holly Swinburn, revealing that he is still in love with his ex-girlfriend despite their tumultuous relationship.
The couple welcomed their daughter Isla Jade together in March this year, but their relationship has been rocky from the start, with the pair rekindling their romance in the months after Holly's pregnancy announcement and later breaking up again in April.
Freddy, 21, has said that he is currently single, but that he is a dedicated father and values his relationship with Holly, with whom he has a deep connection.
Speaking about his current situation, Freddy said: 'I don't want to be with people. I don't want to chat to people and entertain loads of girls and things like that. It doesn't bother me anymore.'
He added: 'Now that I've got a little girl, I feel like I respect women a little bit more, and I'm still in love with my baby's mother. I care about her a lot.'
Freddy is currently living with his grandmother Jackiey Budden in London, following a series of blistering rows with his family, including his dad Jeff Brazier, who had threatened legal action to prevent Jackiey from seeing her grandson.
However, the birth of baby Isla has brought Freddy and Jeff closer together, with Freddy admitting that he's 'doing therapy' in an attempt to get his life back on track.
Freddy has also revealed that he's considering moving back into his dad's Essex home or moving in with his grandmother on Jeff's side, saying: 'I feel like I've given back to my dad for everything that he's done for me in some ways.'
The couple's tumultuous relationship has been filled with drama and tension, with sources claiming that Holly was furious with Freddy for leaving her and their baby so soon after the birth.
A source said: 'It's a bitter blow for Holly after their row and shows he's doubled down. They have unfollowed each other on Instagram and Holly is especially furious he has left her and their baby so soon after the birth.'
Despite the challenges they've faced, Freddy remains committed to being a good father to Isla Jade, saying: 'Little baby, Isla, that's priceless, and that's the best gift I've ever given to him, so it's nice.'
