Inside Una Healy’s relationship with David Haye and Sian Osborne

Fans of pop band The Saturdays had their hopes raised recently when Una Healy hinted that she had formed a new trio.

Not a singing trio you understand, but a throuple – a very modern relationship concept where three people of varying degrees of fame pose in swimwear on Instagram, make cryptic references to being in a ‘great place of positive energy’, and then refuse to elaborate further.

With years under her belt navigating the tricky group dynamics of a girl band, Una, 41, seemingly put her skills to good use by entering into a three-way relationship with boxer David Haye and his model girlfriend Sian Osborne.  

The latest twist came this week when on Wednesday she shared and then deleted a photo of herself and David cuddling up in Costa Rica, with the caption: ‘It was me and him x’.

A day later, she wiped all traces of herself with David and Sian from her account and quickly followed up with an ‘I am a serious musician’ photo of herself with a guitar.

It seems that Forever Is Over, as Una once trilled with The Saturdays, but was she really All Fired Up over a divorced former boxer and his little-known girlfriend?

Let us leave the sledgehammer references The Saturdays back catalogue here and take a closer look at how this unlikely trio perhaps came to be.   

After splitting from cheating rugby ace Ben Foden, who she shares two children with, Una has been living in her native Thurles where the closest thing to a ménage à trois is a ‘3-in-1 – a legendary carb-fest you get from a takeaway consisting of rice, chips and curry sauce. 

However, her Instagram feed started to pack a real punch late last year in the form of teasing photos of former World Heavyweight and Cruiserweight Boxing Champion David Haye holding hands with both Sian and Una.

The whole saga began to unfold in earnest on New Year’s Day when Haye immediately tried to cast a philosophical air over proceedings by referencing Paolo Coelho.

Sharing a photo of himself with bikini-clad Una and Sian in Marrakech, he said he’d always wanted to visit Morocco since reading The Alchemist.

At this point we’re unclear if he’s announcing he has two girlfriends or admitting to being the kind of bloke with a Live, Laugh, Love sign hanging in his bathroom.

He continued: ‘I wanted my very own Morocco adventure to one day write about, well that box now is well and truly ticked.

‘I’ve starting Jan first with the correct energy, surrounding myself with understanding beautiful human beings, who do not judge, but instead accept me for my authentic self,’ he said.

He wrapped up with a shout out to the Park Plaza hotel for giving him the five star treatment, whereas the protagonist of The Alchemist used his time in Morocco to work for a glassmaker and save up to buy a flock of sheep, but everyone’s spiritual journey is different.

Una herself shared some meaningful words about starting 2023 feeling ‘genuinely happy and at peace’, saying ‘Here’s to this year being ours’.

Weeks later, arriving at the Chris Eubank Jr and Liam Smith fight, David appeared to confirm the romance but declined to reveal further details of their trysts.

He said: ‘I like to keep my private life private. I let people in through my social media a little bit, but what I do behind closed doors is between me and the girls involved.’

In addition to juggling his complicated love life, David has also set up Black Mask Company, a business selling face coverings, after his retirement from boxing. 

Una also shared a photo of herself on the beach in Kerry, Ireland over the weekend, coming after the speculation of her trio relationship

Earlier this week, Una wiped all traces of herself with David and Sian from her account and quickly followed up with an ‘I am a serious musician’ photo of herself with a guitar

Having divorced his make-up artist wife Natasha in 2016, the father-of-one reportedly met his girlfriend Sian when she modelled for the brand – which seems to have now folded. 

As a fan of ‘correct energy’, Haye no doubt realised that face masks are very depressing lockdown 2020 vibes, while a throuple is much more sexy 2023, so he couldn’t resist dropping another hint by sending Valentine’s Day messages to both Una and Healy on Instagram for all to see.

It was down to comedian Katherine Ryan to take charge and contact him directly to invite him on her podcast to explain what on Earth is going on.

Haye replied politely to say that it’s between him and ‘the Queens’, so our only hope is for further Instagram updates about the trio’s movements.

Should they reunite, will Una take Sian and David to Thurles where they can light a candle at the church where she married Ben Foden and pop into the famine museum?

Because maybe it’s to Thurles that we can trace the roots of this unexpected tale.

Una and Ben Foden divorced in July 2018 after six years of marriage when he confessed to cheating on with PR girl Becky Milne.

Their split came days before they had planned to move to the US with their two children, which resulted in Ben starting his new life having signed with Rugby United New York on his own.

Instead, Una understandably moved back to her hometown to be closer to her family while raising her two children, and had a year-long romance with hurler David Breen. 

In an interview with Irish radio, she said ‘being a Mammy’ is her main job and that in her hometown, people are so used to her being around she’s just another face rather than ‘Una from The Saturdays’ – which she’s delighted about

Now, do not come for me with pitch forks, proud residents of Tipperary, but I wonder if this is entirely true?

I’m just saying that after the dizzying heights of recording a single with Sean-a-Paul, a reality series about an unsuccessful bid to crack the US market and being the face of Veet hair removal as part of The Saturdays, Una might occasionally get a yearning for the more glamorous old days.

The Saturdays – Vanessa White, Mollie King, Una Healy, Frankie Sandford and Rochelle Wiseman – have been on a hiatus since 2014 

Three of her Saturdays co-stars Frankie Bridge, Mollie King and Rochelle Humes have managed to carve out TV presenting careers and while Una’s been a success in her home country, she’s not managed to maintain the same profile in the UK.

Yes, Una has a country music radio show, her own shoe collection and stints as a judge on The Voice Ireland, as well as various presenting gigs.  

And she’s also a rumoured contestant for this year’s Dancing With The Stars – Ireland’s answer to Strictly where previous twinkle-toed talent includes Conor McGregor’s sister.

However, the renewed interest sparked by a colourful love life might well open up offers from dancefloors, Australian jungles or panels of Loose Women. 

After retiring from boxing in 2018, apart from a brief one-fight comeback in 2021, David is also casting around for his next venture now that the aforementioned face masks and his foray into vegan protein powder are no more.

Having two girlfriends is not exactly a career move unless you’re modelling yourself as the next Hugh Hefner, but the attention – not to mention admiration – is not exactly going to hurt, and it’s certainly put Sian in the spotlight too. 

Perhaps Una’s picture deleting spree indicates that the throuple will now stay off Instagram while David keeps his frolics with the ‘Queens’ private.  

But if we suddenly hear a single about the heartbreak of a double break up from Una and David and Sian release a triple duvet cover set, will anyone be surprised?

MailOnline has contacted Una and David for comment.
