Chloe Madeley appeared to take a swipe at her ex-husband James Haskell's family hours after his mother criticised their marriage on television. The 38-year-old personal trainer shared a cryptic Instagram story, writing: 'Does anyone else feel like there are just some people in life who you have to follow around with a dustpan and brush so you can sweep up all the c**p they keep dropping on the floor? Orrrr is that just me?'
The post came after James's mother Susie appeared on the E4 show Celebs Go Dating, where she made pointed comments about her son's failed marriage. She said: 'I do have a strong opinion on why I think it went wrong. You can't have two stars because you have them competing for the floor space the whole time.' Susie also claimed that prior to his marriage, James's girlfriends 'loved me, which is a bonus.'
James and Chloe split in 2023 after five years of marriage and share a daughter, Bodhi. The former rugby player, who recently joined the dating show, has spoken positively about his ex-wife, calling her 'intelligent, driven, generous' and a 'great mum.' He confirmed he had her permission to take part in the show.
Chloe, the daughter of TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, did not specify who her Instagram post was aimed at. The couple's separation shocked fans, but they have remained committed to co-parenting their daughter.
