James Haskell's Mum Slams Ex-Daughter-in-Law on TV

Susie Haskell, mother of ex-rugby player James Haskell, has made critical remarks about her son's ex-wife, Chloe Madeley, during James's appearance on "Celebs Go Dating." Susie suggested that previous girlfriends were more suitable for James, stating, "I can't have two stars because you have them competing for the floor space the whole time." These comments have reportedly left Chloe Madeley "embarrassed and upset," according to a source. Chloe, daughter of Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, is said to feel the remarks were unnecessary, especially as she has been working to protect their family from public scrutiny.

James Haskell and Chloe Madeley confirmed their separation in 2023 after nearly ten years of marriage. The couple, who share a three-year-old daughter named Bodhi, have maintained a collaborative co-parenting relationship and described their ongoing dynamic as "loving and respectful." James has acknowledged his past selfishness during his sporting and DJ careers impacted his relationship with Chloe. Despite the recent television drama initiated by his mother, James has expressed his respect for Chloe and continues to prioritize their daughter's well-being, emphasizing the positive and supportive friendship they have built post-separation.
