Rebel Wilson says shes in a really good place following split from Jacob Busch – Daily Mail

Rebel Wilson is in a good place following her split from Jacob Busch.

The 40-year-old actress opened up about her breakup and her incredible weight loss journey – after losing 60lbs over the past year – in a new interview with Extra.

‘Any kind of breakup is hard and not ideal… I feel like, I don’t know if it’s turning 40 or coming into your own… I feel in a really good place.’ Rebel said of her split from the brewery heir.

Rebel added, ‘I am so busy with work, doing Pooch Perfect now, and I have three movies to shoot after this.’

The Australian star revealed that after overhauling her lifestyle she has managed to keep the pounds off for good, after years of failed diets.

‘I would often go on little diets and things and try to lose a few pounds here and there… This is the first time I haven’t gained any weight back.’ she told Extra.

‘I think because I approached it from all areas… the biggest thing that I haven’t ever worked on was the emotional side, what I suffered from, I guess, as classical emotional eating… so I really worked on that side.’

As well as conquering her emotional eating, Rebel said that walking made the biggest impact.

‘The one biggest thing is just walking… I got all these high-tech tests done on me during my year of health. They said that walking was actually the best way for me to lose unnecessary body fat.’

In November Rebel revealed she’d hit her weight loss goal, getting down to 165lbs.

‘Hit my goal with one month to spare!’ the star wrote on her Instagram Story at the time. ‘Even though it’s not about a weight number, it’s about being healthy, I needed a tangible measurement to have as a goal and that was 75 kg’s.’

That same month she told PEOPLE: ‘I would numb myself with food. I was traveling the world and I had a hectic lifestyle and my way of dealing with the pressure sometimes was eating ice cream and brownies, but at the end of the day, I wasn’t treating myself with love.

‘I’ll have dessert once or twice a week now. It’s just not an everyday thing, Having a sweet tooth will always be my vice, but online shopping has crept up a bit!’

Earlier this month Rebel confirmed her relationship with brewery heir Busch was over when she took to Instagram sharing a picture of herself, in which she called herself a ‘single girl’.

She captioned the snap: ‘Lots on my mind…aghhhhhh…#single-girl-heading-to-Super-Bowl! (sic)’

A source close to the star then confirmed the news to Page Six, saying the relationship had ‘just run its course’.

Rebel and Jacob were last photographed together during the Christmas holidays when they were on vacation together, which came three months after they’d confirmed their romance by attending Prince Albert‘s Planetary Health Gala together in Monaco in September.

When their romance was first revealed, it was reported the couple were helping each other in their ‘health journeys’ as they were both striving to lose weight.

A source said at the time: ‘They are officially boyfriend and girlfriend. He’s a gentleman, has very old school manners and treats her well. He is also very health conscious and they’ve been motivating each other with their health journeys.’
