Millie Mackintosh made her first public appearance since news of her split from husband Hugo Taylor broke, attending a high-profile fashion event in London this week.
The 36-year-old reality star and fashion influencer appeared at the gathering alone, maintaining a composed presence despite the recent headlines regarding her personal life.
On February 2, 2026, reports first surfaced that the couple had decided to end their seven-year marriage following what insiders described as a "difficult start to the year."
The separation follows a period of serious reflection for the pair, who first met as teenagers and rose to fame together on the E4 series Made in Chelsea.
Sources told the Daily Mail that while the decision to part ways was sad, both parties agreed it was the best path forward.
Before the announcement, Millie spent time at a wellness retreat in India, where she shared introspective social media posts about "healing" and "resetting."
Observers noted the absence of her wedding ring in photos from the trip, which initially sparked rumors about the state of her marriage.
The couple’s primary focus remains the well-being of their two young daughters, Sienna, five, and Aurelia, four.
Friends of the pair indicate that they intend to navigate their separation privately and are currently working through the logistics of living apart and co-parenting.
The split marks a significant shift for the family, who just months ago celebrated a traditional Christmas together, sharing photos of their holiday celebrations on Instagram.
Millie Mackintosh has been candid in the past about the challenges within her marriage, particularly her previous struggles with alcohol and anxiety.
In her writing, she revealed that her decision to embrace sobriety two years ago came after realizing the negative impact drinking had on her mental health and her relationship with Hugo.
While the couple has not yet released an official joint statement, those close to them suggest they remain committed to maintaining a respectful and supportive environment for their children as they transition into this new chapter of their lives.
