Kyly Clarke all smiles following Michael’s split from Pip Edwards

On Friday, it was reported that Pip Edwards and Michael Clarke had split, less than a year after they went public with their romance.

And now, 24 hours after the news broke, the cricketer’s ex-wife Kyly Clarke has been spotted with a smile on her dial in Sydney.

The 39-year-old beamed as she walked through a park, grinning from ear-to-ear on Saturday.

She wore slouched light-wash jeans with a plain white T-shirt, and she finished off her look with some bright white trainers.

Given the casual occasion, the Channel Seven  presenter donned minimal make up, and accessorised with some oversized sunglasses.   

Although Kyly never officially commented on her ex’s relationship with Pip, her spirits appear to be high of late.

According to The Daily Telegraph, the 41-year-old P.E Nation designer and the sporting icon are still on good terms.

‘They were great friends and had a great time together, and I’m sure they will remain friends,’ a ‘friend’ told the publication on Saturday. 

There is definitely no animosity,’ the close pal added.

Sources close to the pair said while they have gone separate ways, they remain good friends and the split is ‘amicable’. 

Meanwhile, another said that despite the couple’s propensity for loved-up Instagram posts, over recent times: ‘Things had been rather rocky’. 

Michael, 39, appears to be channelling his energy into spending quality time with his daughter, Kelsey Lee, who he shares with ex-wife Kyly.

Posting to Instagram on Friday, the cricketer shared a photo with his five-year-old on her first day of school, captioning it: ‘Have the best day’ with a love heart emoji.

In the sweet picture, Michael crouched down and held Kelsey Lee in a tight cuddle.   

He followed it up with a photograph of his little girl in the pool, captioning it: ‘After school swims.’ 

Michael and Pip’s relationship began last June following the former Australian Test captain’s split from wife Kyly.

They had been friends for more than a decade before that, but grew close working on a fashion project together.

In December, Edwards stood by Michael’s side as he was awarded an Order of Australia (AO) for his service to cricket.

Both Pip and Michael came to the relationship with children from previous partners.

Pip and ‘Pup’ are understood to have split in recent weeks, less than a year after the celebrity pair went public with their relationship.  

The couple were inseparable for much of their romance, but neither has featured on the other’s Instagram since Australia Day – the same day the fashion designer landed herself in hot water for an unfortunate social media post. 

When contacted about their split on Friday, Pip told Daily Mail Australia: ‘I have no comment, no comment at all.’
