Candid photos appear to show a romance rekindled between Michael Clarke and ex-wife Kyly after former flame Pip Edwards dropped the relationship bomb on Wednesday.

The fashion designer — who briefly dated Michael last year — confirmed the pair were back together after the former married couple were spotted together this weekend.

Pictures have now surfaced, showing Michael and Kyly spending time with daughter Kelsey Lee.

The pictures captured on Sunday morning show the family casually out and about on Sydney’s northern beaches during their weekend together at an exclusive Palm Beach home.

The former Australian sport power couple were seen spending some alone time at a cafe in Avalon and were seen again getting groceries together.

It’s why Edwards was this week asked to comment on the rumours.

“I wish them well,” Edwards said, speaking at Australian Fashion Week, according to The Daily Mail.

In February last year, Clarke and Boldy confirmed they were separating after seven years of marriage.

“After living apart for some time, we have made the difficult decision to ­separate as a couple, amicably,” a joint statement read.

“With the greatest of respect for each other, we’ve come to the ­mutual conclusion that this is the best course for us to take while committed to the co-parenting of our daughter.”

Clarke and Kyly went to school together at Sydney’s Westfields Sports High, but didn’t start dating until many years later, after Clarke’s engagement with Lara Worthington (nee Bingle) was broken off in 2010.

The couple have one child together, five-year-old Kelsey Lee.

Clarke and Edwards, the founder of P.E. Nation, confirmed their relationship in June last year and regularly posted a string of happy snaps to their respective social media pages.

In December 2020, they held a lavish party on board a $15 million superyacht to celebrate Clarke being appointed an officer in the general division of the Order of Australia as part of the Queen’s Birthday Honours List.

But all good things must come to an end, with the pair splitting in February.

Meanwhile, in October last year, Boldy sparked up a relationship with V8 Supercars driver James Courtney after the pair were spotted “kissing passionately” trackside at Bathurst.

However, their fling last approximately two months.
