They had lived together at Smith's London pad before they broke up. While dating, she described Nation on social media as her "dream man", adding: “Look how fit my man is #punching.”. A source told The Sun at the time of their split: "There is no animosity and Graham is still there for her, but she feels quite lonely at the moment.".
