Olivia Jade Giannulli is opening up about her mental health as she prepares for a cross-country move to New York.
The content creator shared updates with fans in a YouTube video about her recent return to the U.S. after spending part of the summer in Paris. She revealed she’ll be moving to New York in a couple of weeks.
The 25-year-old got real about her emotions surrounding the move.
“I’ve been feeling so many different emotions,” Giannulli said in the video.
“I feel like committing to this move and really like letting it sink in that I’m moving across the country for the first time away from my family. I’ve never lived away from my family in my life.”
She’s never lived away from her family before.
“I think while moving is a very exciting and happy time, it’s definitely bringing up a little bit of stress just because change is always a little nerve-wracking,” she told followers.
Giannulli opened up about recent conversations with her therapist during this transition period.
“I was talking with my therapist about this yesterday on the phone, and you guys know I love therapy,” she said.
She uses therapy “as a tool to fight a lot of nerves and uncomfortable changes” and to “navigate many situations in life.”
Her therapist “has very much supported me during this season of life and change and I’m very grateful that I just have an outlet and somebody to talk to and I’m just very grateful my therapist has helped me see things in a different light. Gives me new perspectives.”
The move comes after Giannulli and actor Jacob Elordi ended their on-and-off relationship of several years.
The breakup news followed months of speculation about the couple’s status. In April, Giannulli seemed to hint things were still good when she liked a post from Elordi’s sister Isabella about his latest project, The Narrow Road to the Deep North, per E! News.
Before returning to the U.S., Giannulli gave fans a glimpse into her Paris experience in a YouTube vlog.
She expressed excitement about what she thought would be a “formative” time in the city. Giannulli also shared news about launching a business at the end of the year, saying, “There’s just a lot going on, and it’s all really good and really exciting.”
The daughter of Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli was recently spotted at restaurant E. Baldi in Los Angeles, wearing a camel-colored coat, denim shorts and white tee.
Elordi was also seen post-breakup having a night out with Euphoria costars Sydney Sweeney, Maude Apatow and Hunter Schafer at a Santa Monica karaoke bar. The group’s reunion comes as filming is underway for the third season of the HBO series.
Neither Elordi nor Giannulli has publicly addressed the breakup.
