Kayla Itsines has broken her silence over her split from her ex-fiancé and business partner, Tobi Pearce.
The 32-year-old fitness influencer and entrepreneur parted ways with the CEO of EzLicence in 2020 and has been tight-lipped about the divorce ever since.
After meeting in late 2012, the pair launched the Bikini Body Training Company and garnered a following of more than 20 million fitness enthusiasts around the world thanks to their workouts, app, and health books.
The ex-couple were jointly named tenth on the Australian Financial Review’s Young Rich List for 2019 with a fortune of $486 million, making them the richest self-made over-20s in Australia.
They also both co-founded the digital workout app SWEAT, which they sold to US company iFit for $400 million in 2021.

The fitness influencer and entrepreneur, 32, parted ways with the CEO of EzLicence in 2020 and has been tight-lipped about the divorce ever since. In an interview with the Australian Financial Review, Kayla admitted that due to their differences, she doesn’t even know how she got into a relationship with Tobi.
“We are the opposite of each other,” she told the publication. “I look back and think, ‘I have no idea how all this happened.'”
“I really don’t think, when I step back and look at my years with Tobi, that we were anything like each other,” she added.
‘I’m a fixer. I want to make sure your day is the best day possible. I want to make sure that when you are in my home you feel warm, comfortable and loved. That’s me. Tobi came to me with no family, I had no idea.
“I thought, ‘I can fix you.’ He told me, “We’re dating. Now we’re starting a business. Now we’re doing this.”‘
Kayla and Tobi have since moved on to new relationships. The fitness coach is now engaged to Jae Woodroffe, while Tobi is in a relationship with Move With Us founder Rachel Dillion
