Chloe Madeley addresses reunion speculation as she shares pic with ex James Haskell and daughter Bodhi
Chloe Madeley and James Haskell have been navigating co-parenting their daughter Bodhi, one, since splitting last September, and appear to be doing it so well that some fans were left confused this week.
Personal trainer Chloe, who is the daughter of This Morning royalty Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, enjoyed a day out to London Zoo with her ex-husband and their daughter this week. Sharing a beaming selfie to Instagram of the three, Chloe captioned: ""My little modern family. Well that’s one way to lose these walking blues, diamonds on the soles of her shoes."
Seeing the exes together caused speculation of a reunion, with one fan questioning: "Thought you split up?" Responding to the comment, Chloe assured that they have split but 'deserve' family moments. She replied: "Yea but I'm of the opinion that we deserve family memories and family pictures as much as every other family does" (sic).
Many applauded Chloe and James for managing to put their family first despite personal differences, with one follower commenting: "This is what ‘putting your child first’ really is about. One lucky little lady right there."
"Lovely picture and a great example of how co parenting should be xx," wrote another.
The couple, who had been together since 2014, split back in September - just 13 months after the birth of their daughter, Bodhi - but only made it public a month later.
It was announced while their TV series, Chloe Madeley: A Family Affair, was airing - showing how they navigated parenthood. In an emotional statement, Chloe said at the time: “James and I mutually decided separate at the end of September, 2023.
“We had not planned on releasing a statement at this time - certainly not while the television show was airing - but constant speculation about our marriage has, unfortunately, forced our hand.
“Beyond this statement, we will not be speaking about this matter publicly, and we would request privacy at this time. Our sole focus now is our beautiful daughter. We shall continue to co-parent with nothing but love.”
This isn't the first time they've shown how well co-parenting is going, with Chloe and James enjoying a family lunch with the former's parents last month. Posting a slew of pictures from the lunch, she captioned: "Family" with an infinity emoji.
Speaking of the split exclusively with OK!, she said in January: “If you think of relationships, you have pillars in place to hold them up, and I think we just found that we didn’t have enough there to hold us up anymore. That’s the only way I can really say it.”
