In a recent TikTok video, social media influencer Silvana Mojica, 28, bared her emotions, revealing the ongoing struggles she faces after her split from Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy last month. Silvana Mojica, who confirmed the breakup just before Thanksgiving, shared the challenges she’s been grappling with in a candid vlog posted on Wednesday.
“I’ve been crying — surprise, surprise,” Mojica humorously remarked in the video.
She went on to disclose the toll the breakup has taken on her mental health, saying, “I’ve been having panic attacks every single day at one in the morning and I can’t go to bed until four. I just really need to get the f–k out of this house.”
Fans rallied behind Mojica, offering words of support.
One follower suggested, “I started watching Christmas movies every time I have these early morning panic attacks. You’ll get through this,”
To this Mojica responded, “omg will try this! thank you so much.”
In the video, Silvana Mojica was seen packing up her belongings in the home she once shared with Portnoy. She announced her imminent move, stating, “I move out Friday,” and confirmed that she was actively apartment hunting in Miami.
Dave Portnoy also talked about the breakup
Last month, Portnoy, 46, broke his silence on the breakup during his “BFFs” podcast, expressing his perspective on the three-year relationship. “Without going into too much detail, I just didn’t think I could give Silvana kind of what she deserves. She’s so beautiful, she’s funny, she’s smart, she’s all these things,” he shared.
Despite being the initiator of the breakup, Portnoy admitted to the emotional toll, stating, “I lost my best friend as well,” emphasizing that he still “loves” Mojica and is “very concerned [with] what happens to her.”
