James Haskell made a brutal did at his estranged wife Chloe Madeley on the final leg of his podcast tour

James Haskell took aim at his estranged wife Chloe Madeley last week as he appeared on stage to broadcast the final leg of his World Cup Afterparty: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly rugby podcast tour.

Former England star James split from Chloe in October after five years of marriage - and just 14 months after they welcomed their daughter Bodhi into the world. It followed weeks of speculation surrounding the state of their relationship - a time which saw both parties enjoy nights out with pals minus their respective wedding rings.

Joined by co-hosts Mike Tindall and Alex Payne, 38-year old James told fans in Bath his ex was "unreasonable, overly critical and insensitive, and unfair in arguments". He went on to joke that he was hiding his money in an offshore bank account to avoid a hefty payout when the pair eventually divorce.

Opening the show, he said: "First of all ladies and gentlemen. I can see some of you doing it already very unsubtly. Please no filming of this show. I'm in the papers enough at the moment! Please don't film it, post it up on social media. What happens now is that whatever I say goes out of my mouth and into your own personal filters."

He continued: "And some of you, (you may) have had a bit of a troubled childhood, or get offended very easily. I don't want you to reflect on what I say and think you're offended and then posting that up. Because I need the cash because I am about to lose half of it. It's true. That is if she (Chloe) can find it. I always forget where I put it - the Cayman Islands, Switzerland. No, at the moment I haven't got a pot to p**s in."

Mike responded: "I love the fact you think you are clever enough to hide your cash," to which James reiterated: "It's just the stuff I bag under the bed. The amount of times I have been cancelled, I haven't got a pot to p**s in."

James then used pal Mike - the husband of Princess Anne's daughter, Zara- as the catalyst for another not-so-subtle dig at Chloe. "Mike's personality, actually as Zara told us, is 'annoyingly honest Mike'," he began. "He sounds like a great person, but he's not. He comes out after eight bottles of rosé and three bottles of red wine.

"Then he basically tells you everything that you have ever done wrong and where you have gone wrong with complete disregard for any sensitivity - or anything he has ever done wrong - and also is completely out of context. And he won't be reasoned with and he will not be argued with, right... sounds like my wife actually."

He finished the gag: "Ex-wife actually. No. It's not official yet. Don't put that in the papers!" Despite James' unsavoury remarks, the pair were snapped together on Friday following a sweaty workout at a North London gym. It comes just days after they were seen enjoying a pub lunch together with Bodhi, and were also spotted on another dinner date without their daughter, fuelling rumours they could in fact get back together.
