Millie Mackinosh has shared a post about having an ‘alternative’ Valentine’s Day after her split from her husband Hugo Taylor.
The former Made In Chelsea star, 36, took to Instagram on Friday and shared a photo of a London Underground whiteboard message titled: ‘Valentine’s Day Alternatives’.
Among the suggestions were: ‘Galentine’s Day – spend it with the girls, Malentine’s Day – spend it with the lads’ and ‘Palentine’s Day – spend it with friends’.
It also suggested: ‘Salentine’s Day – spend it shopping, ‘Sailentine’s Day – spend it on a boat’ and ‘Tailentine’s Day – spend it with pets’.
Earlier that day, Millie partnered up with Sainsbury’s to promote their loved up range this February 14th.
Taking to Instagram, Millie looked stunning in a sheer white blouse and white satin skirt as she served up steak, hot maple carrots and truffle dauphinoise potatoes.

And it appeared Millie had extended ‘Dine in for Two’ to four as she set the table for her group of friends as she poured out glasses of non-alcoholic fizz.
She penned: ‘This year, @sainsburys made Galentine’s feel really easy which is exactly what you want when you’re hosting.
‘Galentine’s is one of my favourite nights of the year, an excuse to get the girls together, get dressed up and actually sit down and enjoy the evening.’
Millie is prioritising her gal pals following her split from Hugo earlier this month.
The ex-Made In Chelsea stars, who share daughters Sienna, five, and Aurelia, four, announced their separation on February 2, seven years after exchanging vows.
Sources close to the pair say they remain committed to co-parenting their young children, who continue to be their priority, and to maintaining a loving family life.
The couple, who met as teenagers and first dated during E4’s Made In Chelsea, had been married since June 2018.
A source told the Daily Mail: ‘Millie and Hugo are currently going through a separation and have sadly decided to split.

‘They have known each other for many years, and in recent weeks, have had serious conversations about their future, ultimately deciding it’s better for them both to part ways.
‘Their main priority remains their children and family life, and separating is not something they ever hoped would happen.
‘At present, they are considering what living apart might look like and how they plan to navigate co-parenting their young children.
‘It’s been an incredibly difficult start to the year, and one they hope to continue managing in private.’
Millie travelled to India in last month to attend a wellness retreat designed to ‘heal’ the nervous system while Hugo was on a skiing holiday.
During her stay, the reality star, who was pictured without her wedding ring, shared several posts alluding to a new chapter in her life.
She also posted a quote that read: ‘You don’t always have to know what comes next in your journey.
‘Sometimes you just need to be where you are and know that it’s okay to be there. There is so much beauty in accepting yourself, right here, in this moment.
‘No matter what you are working towards, I hope you can always remember that finding peace in the present moment is just as important as the path ahead.’
In another Instagram story, she shared the quote: ‘And then the moon said to me, dear girl, it’s time to own your f***ing power.’
Influencer Millie first met Hugo as a teenager, and they began dating when she was 21, rising to fame together on the E4 reality series.
In 2013, the heiress married rapper Professor Green, 42, but the couple divorced in 2016, the same year she rekindled her relationship with Hugo.
The pair tied the knot two years later and welcomed their first daughter, Sienna, in 2020, followed by Aurelia in 2021.
