This all comes after Caroline's ex-fiancé, Celebrity Big Brother star Andrew Brady, claimed leaving her 'saved his life.'

Andrew shared videos of his "CF" tattoo being covered up by a drawing of Australia. In pretty damning words, he wrote, "It’s exactly a year tomorrow since I left a very toxic relationship and got away. Leaving probably saved my life. I mark it one year on by doing something I probably should have done a while ago."

Seemingly referring to his tattoo, Andrew also wrote, “It’s finally gone. Out with the old, in with the new.
