James Haskell and Chloe Madeley showed how they are continuing to co-parent after their split by sharing a snap of them having dinner with their daughter Bodhi.
The former rugby union player, 38, posted a photo on Instagram on Sunday of his estranged wife, 36, and their 16-month-old child eating at a restaurant.
Putting on a united front, James captioned the cozy pic of the trio, “Team dinner away.”
The couple announced their shocking split two months ago, but actually split over the summer.
They have continued to live together for the sake of their daughter, and Chloe recently revealed to Web that they will celebrate Christmas together as they want Bodhi to have “a normal Christmas”.

The daughter of TV presenting duo Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan said: “Christmas will be a real family affair, me, my mum and dad, Bodhi and James.”
“That will be lovely because as much as possible I want Bodhi to have a real sense of family and togetherness at Christmas and it's important to both James and me that we do that.”
“We don’t know how long this will be possible, but we will do it as long as possible.”
“I want Bodhi to not only have a strong feeling for mom and dad, but also a strong feeling for the family as a unit.”
However, this comes after James took a public swipe at Chloe on stage in Bath this week in the last of 17 broadcasts of the live version of his rugby podcast.
Along with podcast co-hosts Mike Tindall and Alex Payne, the athlete spoke about his relationship with Chloe, saying she was unreasonable, overly critical and insensitive, as well as unfair in arguments.
James joked that he had hidden all that money overseas to avoid having to pay out Chloe in the divorce, before claiming that he actually had no money left for her at all because he had been canceled so many times since the split.
He began the two-hour show with a rant about divorce and addressed the audience by saying: “First of all, ladies and gentlemen, I imagine some of you are already doing it very unsubtly – no filming on this one, please.” Show.'I'm in the papers enough at the moment!'

He continued: “Please don't film it, just post it on social media.” What's happening now is that everything I say goes out of my mouth and into your own personal filters. And some of you may have had difficult childhoods or are very easily offended.
“I don't want you to think about what I say and think you're offended and then post it.” Because I need the money because I'm about to lose half of it.
'This is true. Assuming she (Chloe) can find it. I always forget where I put it – the Cayman Islands, Switzerland. No, I don't have a pot to p**k at the moment.'
Mike then joked: “I love the fact that you think you're smart enough to hide your money,” to which James replied: “It's just the stuff I keep under the bed.” “So many times I've been canceled , I don’t have a pot left to sink my teeth into.”
A few moments later, James makes up an anecdote about his friend Mike, who is married to Princess Anne's daughter Zara – apparently with the sole intention of giving Chloe another inconspicuous swipe.
He began: “Mike’s personality is, as Zara told us, “annoyingly honest Mike.” He sounds like a great person, but he's not. It comes out after eight bottles of rosé and three bottles of red wine.
“Then he basically tells you everything you've ever done wrong and everything you've ever done wrong, with no regard for any sensitivity – or everything he's ever done wrong – and also completely out of context.” And with He will not be argued with and will not be argued with, right.'
After a brief pause for dramatic effect, James continued, “Sounds like my wife, actually.”
The couple released a joint statement in October after appearing in public without wedding rings
He then corrected himself and said, “Actually ex-wife,” before adding, “No.” It's not official yet. Don't put this in the newspaper.'
James later recalled a story in which he “got to meet a lawyer who's a friend of mine,” before adding, “He's more of a business partner now” – a nod to the long time he's been with lately the divorce has spent lawyers.
The couple, who married in 2018, first fueled speculation about their split after Chloe appeared without her wedding ring while partying with friends – shortly after James was seen chatting to a mystery blonde outside a London nightspot.
Chloe confirmed she had split from James in a joint statement posted on Instagram in October.
In it, the couple announced: “Chloe and I have mutually decided to separate at the end of September 2023.”
“We had no plans to release a statement at the time – especially not while the TV show was airing – but constant speculation about our marriage unfortunately forced us to do so.

Ahead of their split, Chloe James told her reality TV show that she was “embarrassed” after her followers tagged her in photos of him surrounded by bikini-clad women in Ibiza
“Beyond this statement, we will not speak publicly about this matter and ask for privacy at this time.”
“Our only focus now is our beautiful daughter. “We will continue to co-parent with nothing but love.”
James shared his own statement on Instagram, adding: “It is with great sadness that I write this post, but unfortunately in the world we live in it must be done.”
“My priority is the happiness and safety of my daughter and Chloe. “For this reason, I will not be commenting further.”
