STRICTLY star Adam Peaty’s ex girlfriend Eiri Munro said being a single mum can be “very sad” at times.
Last August, Olympian Adam, 28, took to social media to share that he and Eiri – who share a son together – had gone their separate ways.

Seven months on from announcing their split, Eiri has opened up about the struggles of being a single mum.
During an Instagram Q&A, one fan asked: “Was it scary becoming a single mum? I’m really scared and anxious about it!”
She replied: “Honestly…it can be so very scary and so very sad.
“But it will give you the strongest most beautiful bond with your child.”
Eiri also confirmed she has moved back to Wales to be nearer to her family for help too.
She added: “Surround yourself with people who love you deeply and it’ll get easier everyday.
“Thanks for chatting with me, love and appreciate you guys.”
Shortly after the breakup, Eiri broke her silence after the swimmer admitted he had “let her down”.
Adam explained in the post the best way to provide a “happy” and “healthy” home environment for their son George was to end their romantic relationship.
He also apologised to Eiri and his son for “letting them down”.
Hours later Eiri, 24, posted about their break-up on Instagram.
Posting to her Instagram Story, Eiri said: “The last three years have been so, so, amazing. Our little family have experienced so much laughter, love, and joy.
“You guys have been such a significant part of that.
“This next chapter of my life is surely going to be a difficult one.
“I would appreciate that people would refrain from commenting, speculating, or messaging.
“I have shared so much of my life, but for now, I am choosing privacy and I hope that you will all respect that.
“I appreciate you all so much and I’m so thankful for all the fun and opportunities you have given me.
“I am going to be taking a break from social media, so goodbye for now. Thank you so much for everything.”
Adam, who won two gold medals and a silver at the Tokyo Olympic games in 2020, was one of the celebs who took part in Strictly last year.
He was partnered with Kayta Jones – who was struck by the curse in 2018 when she kissed comedian Sean Walsh.
Adam and Katya certainly got fans talking over their sizzling chemistry.
Just weeks into the competition viewers were left shocked when Adam appeared to “try to kiss” Katya after their sizzling Argentine Tango.
Adam and Eiri met on dating app Tinder while at Loughborough University.
They went Instagram official at the start of 2020 and then three months later revealed they were expecting their first child.
