In her candid Loose Women appearance, Chloe went on: ‘Once we made the decision and drew a line under it, it was done.’
She also spoke about their reality show Chloe Madeley: A Family Affair, which threw open the doors to their family home shortly before the split.
Chloe said: ‘A lot happens behind closed doors that wasn’t on the show but it’s amazing how many people picked up on it. We thought we had done a good job but obviously not.’
‘We find out next week what the filming dates [for the next series] are. James will still be involved to a degree and the co-parenting story will be a narrative because it’s a reality show and that is my life.’
Speaking about their little girl, the daughter of Richard Madeley said: ‘She’s so little that its better now, rather than to keep flogging a dead horse.’
Of the split, she went on: ‘I think there’s pillars that hold up a relationship such as love and respect. Over time all of our pillars disintegrated and when that happens there is no saving it. We get on better now we aren’t romantically together.

‘Since we parted ways our relationship has become very respectful and we love each other as friends.
‘One of the things that was hard was him being away so much DJing like 4 or 5 nights a week but that works for us now because I get my time alone and then he comes back and has his time with Bodhi. He should be moving out again in the next few weeks.’
‘I’m happier now than I have ever been and he is happy too. There were horrible weeks when I struggled to get out of bed but once I drew a line, I was ok. I want James to be happy, I want Bodhi to be happy and I want to be happy.’
Chloe took to her Instagram Stories on Monday to reveal she couldn’t remember feeling ‘this happy’. During a Q&A with her followers, she shared a mirror selfie, looking incredible in a denim cropped shirt and matching shorts.
Her fan asked her: ‘Are you happy?’ leading Chloe to reply: ‘Can’t remember the last time I was this happy… I am a very lucky girl and I know I am and I’m grateful.’
During another fan Q&A on Sunday, Chloe once again spoke about happiness with a cryptic post. Chloe was asked: ‘Best advice to be happy?’ and replied: ‘Just be nice to people and you’ll feel so much better about yourself and your life.
‘I recently learned that fighting fire with fire does, in fact, leave you feeling burned. Surround yourself with people who impress you with their kindness and aim to pay it back, and forward.’
She previously insisted the breakup is ‘a very positive decision’ and she’s ‘just felt a lot lighter’ since it happened.
