She added: ‘This girl has no idea what she’s in for. The exact same things happened to me.
‘He moves on [quickly] because he is too afraid to be alone.’

She shared an image of a beachside sunset, and wrote: ‘I think we are all thinking it… are you not embarazzed.’
Nick’s split from Chiara came after a heated clash in hotel quarantine in Adelaide on October 7, which resulted in police being called to the scene.

Their dispute began when Chiara accused her then-boyfriend of cheating on her and shared a photo to Instagram purporting to show him in bed with a ‘naked girl’.
The social media drama resulted in a ‘verbal argument’ between the pair in their hotel suite, with police eventually forced to separate them into different rooms.
Chiara later made a series of wild allegations about Nick and posted screenshots of heated text messages they allegedly sent each other after their fight.
