Embarrassed about hiding break up with traveller (7)
I believe the answer is:
drifter
'traveller' is the definition.
(someone travelling aimlessly)
'embarrassed about hiding break up' is the wordplay.
'embarrassed' becomes 'red' (someone may blush or go red when embarrassed).
'about' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'hiding' indicates putting letters inside.
'break up' becomes 'rift' (rift can mean a break or opening. I am not sure about the 'up' bit.).
'red' reversed gives 'der'.
'der' enclosing 'rift' is 'DRIFTER'.
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drifter that I've seen before include "Vagrant - fishing boat" , "one unsettled" , "Itinerant type" , "Wanderer; fishing vessel" , "Fishing-boat" .)
