Chloe Madeley cut a glamorous figure as she embraced her new single status during a girls' night out on Friday night.
The 36-year-old fitness guru took a rare night off after raising her 16-month-old daughter Bodhi to party the night away with a pal.
Chloe hit the road a week after her estranged husband James Haskell made a very public dig at her and her now-failed marriage on stage in front of a live audience.
But the TV star put her recent breakup aside and enjoyed some quality time with her friends.
Chloe looked chic in a silk top as she enjoyed a drink at a bar after her hair and make-up.
The personal trainer, Richard and Judy's daughter, then shared a pouting photo of herself and a slightly worn-out pal on Instagram.

James, 38, spoke about his marriage while appearing in Bath last week for the last of 17 shows of the World Cup Afterparty: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly – a live version of his rugby podcast.
Along with podcast co-hosts Mike Tindall and Alex Payne, the athlete spoke about his relationship with Chloe – from whom he split in September – saying she was unreasonable, overly critical and insensitive, as well as unfair in arguments.
While James had no problem making subtle digs at his estranged wife, the pair continued to live together while co-parenting their 16-month-old daughter Bodhi.
The now ex-partners have remained friends since their separation for their daughter, but their appearances together in recent weeks sparked reconciliation rumors.
James joked that he had hidden all that money overseas to avoid having to pay out Chloe in the divorce, before claiming he actually had no money left for her at all because he had been canceled so many times since the split.
James began the two-hour show with a rant about divorce, addressing the audience by saying: “First of all, ladies and gentlemen, I imagine some of you are already doing it very unsubtly – no filming of this show please 'I'm in the newspapers often 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.”
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 about having to “meet a lawyer who's a friend of mine” before adding: “He's more of a business partner now” – a reference to the long time he's been with the divorce has spent lawyers.
Chloe announced in September that she and her husband had split after five years, just days after their tumultuous relationship played out on her reality series Chloe Madeley: A Family Affair.
Her father Richard Madeley, 67, said he was proud of how the couple handled the split.
“It's a very civilized, grown-up situation,” he told the Chron at the Christmas At Kenwood Light Trail in Hampstead, north London.
“We're still a family.” James and Chloe's split is very amicable and they get on really well.”
Of his son-in-law, he added: “He was in the house three or four nights ago having a drink and we're all having Christmas dinner together.”

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.
“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.”
