James Haskell has addressed his breakup from Chloe Madeley with an angry comment as he was pictured on a night out.
Former rugby star James was spotted leaving Chiltern Firehouse for the first time since being pictured there alongside businesswoman Martine Bridge in October, which sparked split fears before the pair eventually announced they were over. The 38-year-old appeared a little worse for wear as he left the London hotspot and reportedly addressed the breakdown of his marriage.
He was dressed in a grey acid washed Hera jumper and dark blue jeans, which he matched with a pair of multi-coloured trainers as he clutched onto his phone and waved at photographers. James had a furious look on his face as he walked towards snappers, before giving a wave.
According to a source, James told photographers: "You ended my marriage." The star, who is now a DJ, was married to Chloe Madeley – daughter of TV icons Richard and Judy – since 2018 but the pair decided to call it quits earlier this year.

"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," the fitness instructor continued.
"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."

In each episode, the 36-year-old gave viewers a peek into how she balanced work, first-time motherhood, and her famous family.
Rumours about their relationship escalated when the former rugby star was seen chatting with another woman outside London's Chiltern Firehouse. Since their separation, Chloe has spoken out publicly during a recent Instagram Q&A.
A fan asked about her relationship status with James, saying: "Is there a chance you and James will get back together, it's so sad". To this, Chloe responded: "James and I are not together anymore but we are determined to be the absolute best parents we can be to our amazing little girl."
It seems that James is also moving on, as he was caught liking pictures of other women online. He was seen liking photos of Instagram models and influencers, including fitness guru Mariana Morais and entrepreneur Carolina Aldrovandi. James has also started following bikini model Maddy Cheary.
