They formed a strong bond filming Celebrity Bear Hunt together.

And Una Healy and Danny Cipriani enjoyed more quality time together after the star-studded premiere afterparty at Kettners on Tuesday as they shared a taxi home. 

The Saturdays star Una, 43, looked gorgeous in a dark red vinyl Rebecca Vallance dress covered in sparkly detailing as she slipped into the backseat.

Opposite her was retired rugby player Danny, 37, who looked dapper in a black suit and tailored coat. 

The pair no doubt knew each other before the show, with former rugby WAG Una married to Danny’s England teammate Ben Foden.

Yet prior to working alongside each other on Celebrity Bear Hunt fears were raised that they could end up in a heated situation over Ben’s comments from back in 2010. 

In a previous interview with The Mirror, Ben told the publication that Danny should have focused on his rugby more than his wild antics off the pitch. 

He said at the time: ‘My girlfriend is in the limelight more than me. If I am ever pictured with her it’s normally, “Here is Una Healy… and rugby boyfriend Ben Foden”. I’m never going to be the main focus.

‘I’ve never been a big clubber anyway. It’s always been a part of the rugby culture to get drunk – but I do it with the boys! For me, it’s rugby, rugby, rugby.

‘Cipriani has been a bit unlucky. He has probably done it a bit too soon. He needed to concentrate on his rugby a little bit more.’

A source then told The Sun last month: ‘Danny is still fuming about it.

‘This will make it awkward for them both as Una tries to keep a good relationship with Ben for sake of her kids and now she has to be around someone who hates her ex.

‘It’s not exactly comfortable for either of them and could see them clashing.’

Danny and Una no doubt had plenty to talk about, given they’re both newly single. 

On Monday, it was claimed Una had split from her boyfriend Aidan Coleman, just a few months after she went public with their romance.

A source close to the singer confirmed the news to the Irish Mirror, saying the couple have ‘split amicably’ after several months of dating.

And it seems the retired Irish jockey has already moved on as he’s been spotted on the dating app Bumble, with his profile reading that he’s looking for ‘fun’ and ‘casual dates’.

Aidan has also recently packed his bags and moved back to England after spending six months in Ireland, where Una currently resides, amid reports of the breakup.

In a recent interview with TDN live, he candidly admitted: ‘I am not a great sleeper at the best of times but I am very worried about the fact that I moved back to Ireland six months ago but just couldn’t settle here. 

‘My bags are packed and I am going back to the UK today—a place where I have spent half of my life—but I am worried that this move is not the answer, either. I hope it is. I really do, because I don’t want to feel like this for the rest of my life.’ 

Una was married to rugby star Ben from 2012 until 2018 and has Aoife Belle, 11 and nine-year-old Tadhg with him. 

They divorced after he was unfaithful to her and she started dating Limerick hurler David Breen that year but split with him by February 2020.

The following year she struck up a relationship with an unnamed Dublin-based police officer that came to an end in May 2022.

It was then reported that she was in a three-way relationship with David Haye, 44, and model Sian Osborne, 31 – fuelling the claims by posting a cosy snap of the trio on holiday in Morocco.

Yet she went on to clarify that she was never actually part of a ‘throuple’, revealing the only person she was dating was David – although he was simultaneously dating Sian.

After calling an end to her time with David, she was said to be dating the voice of Love Island Australia – Stephen Mullen – in August but they split two months later.

Meanwhile, Danny split from 90210 actress AnnaLynne McCord, 37, last month, however despite calling time on their relationship Danny admitted she has still been incredibly supportive. 

Gushing over his on off girlfriend, Danny told MailOnline it was AnnaLynne who stopped him quitting the intense show after they called during filming in Costa Rica. 

He explained: ‘There was one time when I phoned her during it as I was thinking that I wanted to quit and get out of it because it was getting too much for me but she said “Nope, buckle down, keep going you’ll be awesome”. 

‘So I have a lot to thank her for. We’re still friends.’

It's believed that AnnaLynne was one of several women Danny dated following his painful separation from ex-wife Victoria, 42, (pictured) who he split from in November 2023

While the pair are currently taking time apart, Danny seemed hopeful of a reunion between the pair, as he revealed they are still in contact. 

He continued: ‘We’re not together right now but she really enjoyed it. We’re still talking, and she was so positive about the whole experience.’

Meanwhile Danny clearly still has a lot of love for his former girlfriend, as he revealed earlier in the day that he was left in tears when the show finished as he couldn’t wait to be reunited with her. 

Asked what he did after filming he gushed: ‘I was going to see my girlfriend and I love her so much so I was emotional.’

Speaking about the series he said: ‘There was so much going on, so much tension and so many emotions were flying but you didn’t have time to process. You didn’t have time alone. Time to go and do things. 

‘So, you know, the only time afterwards was that kind of release and like feeling it and letting it out in that way.’

MailOnline previously revealed Danny and AnnaLynne had called it quits after dating for nine months amid his divorce from ex-wife Victoria Rose O’Callaghan.

It’s believed that AnnaLynee was one of several women Danny dated following his painful separation from ex-wife Victoria, 42, who he split from in November 2023 after four years of marriage.
