James Haskell reveals he's undergone surgery on painful injury just days after his dad's death as he shares new health update
James Haskell has revealed he underwent secret surgery on his arm, just days after his father's death. The former English rugby player, 40, took to social media to pay tribute to his dad Jonathan, who recently passed away after a long illness. Previously announcing his death, James told his followers: 'This is never an easy thing to write. 'My dad has passed away, and while it's unbearably sad, it's also a celebration of an incredible man.' The former I'm A Celebrity campmate added: 'He made me who I am. He supported me at every game, pushed me to be better, and loved me unconditionally. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'His work ethic was second to none. He was an amazing husband, a loving father, and a man who would help anyone in need.' On Monday, James raised a glass to his father, sharing a picture of him drinking his favourite drink, writing: 'It's never easy losing someone you love, but moments like these are made a little more bearable @remymartin. 'Their Cognac was one of my old man's favourites. Raising a glass feels like the perfect way to honour his memory and celebrate his life.' As the dad-of-one raised a glass for his father, one fan noticed James' right hand was bandaged. The eagle-eyed follower probed: 'Hope u are ok bro what happened to the hand mate.' James was swift to reply, revealing: 'Had a screw removed, wear and tear throughout the years.' According to the NHS, the procedure is typically carried out under local or general anesthesia. Meanwhile, James recently admitted what really caused his marriage to Chloe Madeley to end after five years of marriage. Haskell and Chloe, 37, the daughter of television presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, split when their daughter, Bodhi, was aged just one at the time. He explained his love of boozing contributed to the demise of their union. 'If I put more time into my marriage than I did Guinness, then I wouldn't be divorced now,' Haskell said. Speaking at the Pub in the Park festival in west London, James said he now has a much better relationship with Chloe. 'It's one of those things in life where some things don't work out, but I have so much love for my daughter and Chloe,' he told the Daily Mail's Richard Eden. 'It's team work.' He added: 'What we all forget is when you have children and a marriage finishes, it's all about the kids. Chloe and I are amazing co-parents. Our priority is always Bodhi.' Haskell said he's now single after dating advertising executive Helen Barclay at the start of the year. 'I don't really date,' he says. 'My priority is not that at the moment. I don't need anyone. I'm very happy and comfortable. My focus is, obviously, saying goodbye to my dad, work, and being the best dad in the best order.'

It seems the DJ and podcaster has been channelling his efforts into his exercise regime, with Haskell juggling his numerous other exploits with a fitness plan to get into incredible shape. Posting on Instagram, he explained that his injury - sustained during a gaffe filming his rugby podcast - had made things more challenging. "When Sarah @roarfitnessgirl first mentioned doing something with ROAR, I jumped at the chance," he wrote. "I knew their reputation for delivering serious body transformations and I was ready for the challenge. "Working with James and the team took it to another level. I'd done shoots before FHM, Gay Times, Attitude, GQ but never trained for them. I'd just wandered in off the pitch. This time, I wanted to see how lean I could really get.

Speaking to The Sun, she said: "When you tell people that you are divorcing, everyone sees it as such a negative thing," before clarifying: "They say: 'This is going to be so hard for you.'

The personal trainer, 37, appeared in high spirits as she shared an album of pictures to Instagram with her daughter Bodhi Haskell, two, who she shares with ex-husband James Haskell. Exploring the city of Nice with her daughter, mother and father, Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, Chloe looked incredible as she toted around in a black balconette bikini top and striped shorts. Chloe looked every inch the doting mother as she also posted a clip planting a kiss on Bodhi's head. She shared a few sweet moments from her trip as her only child was seen playing around with some magnifying glasses. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. In the album, the blonde beauty also posted a snap of her toddler having a fun swim in the pool. Chloe traveled around the city alongside her mother and father who were seen enjoying the local attractions. Bohdi appeared in her element while on holiday as she was seen looking very relaxed on a plane. She captioned the social media post 'C'est si bon', which translates to 'It's so good'. Her family getaway comes after she revealed she is 'committed to staying single'. While Chloe has stayed single, her ex James has been linked to two ladies since they split. Most recently, it was claimed he was dating Big Brother star Sara McLean. As James's new romance came to light earlier this year, Chloe also took to Instagram to share a cryptic post about 'negative energy'. Her clip featured a sheep running around a field with a bucket on its head, hinting it was blissfully unaware, and she wrote over the top: 'Me: It's so nice in here. She shared a few sweet moments from her trip as her only child was seen playing around with some magnifying glasses In the album, the blonde beauty also posted a fun snap of her toddler having a little swim in the pool 'She's at a place in her life where peace is a priority and negativity cannot exist. She is no longer matching energy. 'She is simply removing herself from any situation that doesn't vibrate her soul. So if you start moving funny, she's moving on.' James and Sara were seen holding hands as they headed to the races on the second day of the Cheltenham Festival in February. Sara, a beauty queen and reality star has previously dated US World Cup goalie hero Tim Howard, rugby star Ben Cohen, cricket legend Shane Warne and TOWIE's Mario Falcone. In January, James was linked to newly single mother-of-two Helen Barclay, who bore a striking resemblance to Chloe. Yet the relationship appears to have fizzled out, with James pictured parading his new romance with Sara at the horse racing-based meeting. His ex-wife Chloe previously revealed she knows the former Wasps flanker has been 'having fun' seeing other people, but maintained the pair still have a healthy relationship as they continue to co-parent. Sara is a former Miss Edinburgh and Big Brother contestant who shocked Housemates when she gave a tearful rendition of God Save The Queen, before going on a rant about people who hate the royal family. James and Chloe announced their split in October 2023 after several months of speculation their marriage was on the rocks. During Chloe's ITV reality show, Chloe Madeley: A Family Affair, which aired around the same time they announced their split, cracks in their relationship were apparent. Notably, clashes over James's new lifestyle which involved DJing abroad and partying with glamorous women, while his wife took care of most of the parenting duties back home. Speaking to The Sun in February, Chloe – the daughter of TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan – admitted the latter stages of their marriage was 'awful', 'dark' and 'painful'. Chloe said: 'When you tell people that you are divorcing, everyone sees it as such a negative thing. 'They say: 'This is going to be so hard for you.' And, yes, it is, but the hardest bit was when we were married. 'The last year of the marriage was awful. It was so dark, painful, and one of the worst periods of my life. It's a good thing we ended it. It was so incredibly scary. I'm amazed I got through it in the way that I did. 'I think more people should see it as a positive thing. I'm so proud of myself and so relieved that I actually called it a day.' After their split, the couple still lived together in their north London home and were often spotted together with Bodhi as they tried to be as amicable as they could for their little girl. Despite some fans thinking the two were back together because of this, Chloe confirmed that they had both moved on, adding she expects the former I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star to find a new partner before she does. She said: 'It'll probably happen for James long before it happens to me if it hasn't already. I'm waiting for the conversation to happen at some point.' Tensions were high before the couple split, with James even claiming Chloe treats him 'like a dog' and likened their relationship to 'World War Three'. In one episode of their reality show before their break-up was announced, James moaned: 'She shushes me like I'm a dog or like I'm a baby. I'm like "shush me again and that's the last thing you'll ever do."' Chloe went on to explain: 'The difficulty in mine and James's relationship comes from the fact that both of us think we're in charge.' Confirming the end of their marriage in a statement in October 2023, the couple said: 'Chloe and I mutually decided to separate at the end of September, 2023. 'We had not planned on releasing a statement at this time – certainly not while the television show was airing – but constant speculation about our marriage has, unfortunately, forced our hand.' She added: 'Beyond this statement, we will not be speaking about this matter publicly, and we would request privacy at this time. Our sole focus now is our beautiful daughter. We shall continue to co-parent with nothing but love.' Sharing his own statement on Instagram, James said: 'It's with a lot of sadness I write this post, but unfortunately, in the world we live in, it has to be done. My priority is my daughter's and Chloe's happiness and security. For that reason, I won't be commenting any further.'

Speaking to The Sun, she remarked: "When you tell people that you are divorcing, everyone sees it as such a negative thing," before clarifying: "They say: 'This is going to be so hard for you.' And, yes, it is, but the hardest bit was when we were married."

In February 2023, Madeley disclosed that she returned to her job as a personal trainer merely eight weeks post childbirth due to financial necessity. The fitness expert, who gave birth to her daughter in August 2022, stated that despite her then-husband's substantial earnings, they didn't have a joint account and her sense of "pride" propelled her back to work.

The sportsman said he's not currently on the search for his next partner, insisting his priority is "being the best dad in the best order".
