Pip Edwards bumps into her ex Michael Clarke at Darren McMullen’s 40th birthday

Exes Pip Edwards and Michael Clarke bumped into each other at their mutual friend Darren McMullen’s 40th birthday party in Sydney on Saturday. 

The former couple, who split in early December, were pictured within earshot of one another as they chatted to fellow partygoers at the lavish Rose Bay event.

The sighting comes after the pair found themselves at the centre of a love triangle last month when Michael reportedly hooked up with one of Pip’s friends, Double Bay eyebrow queen Kristin Fisher, at socialite Dina Broadhurst’s New Year’s Eve party. 

While there may have been some lingering awkwardness, Pip managed to look effortlessly cool in an abstract-print shirtdress and black strappy sandals.

The P.E Nation co-founder, 41, looked cheerful as she mingled with guests and at one stage chatted to former Home and Away star Lincoln Younes. 

She was only a metre or so away from Michael, 40, a former captain of the Australian cricket team, who donned head-to-toe Balenciaga and a pair of designer sunglasses.
