Depending on the contract you may also be liable for further costs. A holiday that I have currently booked has a sliding scale from 83 days to departure date. In your case you are only 27 days from departure and if your holiday was subject to the same conditions you would be liable for 90% of the total cost. That said, my balance is due twelve weeks before departure and if I don't settle in full the holiday will be cancelled at that point (with loss of deposit). You need to read your holiday's Ts&Cs.
Just because they phoned you does not mean you are on the hook for the cancellation fees – if the booking was made by your ex, you will have no contract with the holiday firm and you can tell them to sling their hook.
But as NJ has said it does depend on the T&Cs of the booking – but I don’t see how a court could hold you liable if you have no contract with them. Having your name on the booking would not mean that you had entered into a contract with the holiday firm.
