Chelcee Grimes has split from her girlfriend after a year-long romance, MailOnline can reveal.
The former footballer, 33, went public with executive producer Amelia Farhang last July with Chelcee sharing images of the redhead to her Instagram profile, captioning the post: ‘Private but not a secret.’
But the couple have gone their separate ways following a year together and Chelcee, who’s also written songs for the likes of Dua Lipa, Kesha and Jess Glynne, is now single.
Chelcee’s relationship with Amelia was her first public romance after she was pictured passionately kissing TV presenter Christine McGuinness, 37, with whom she shared a close friendship.
Their closeness followed the end of Christine’s 11-year marriage to BBC Radio 2 host Paddy, 55, who’s the father to her three children.
Despite their fondness for each other after meeting on ITV‘s The Games, Chelcee and Christine are reportedly no longer friends following an ‘explosive row’ over the nature of their relationship.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Chelcee’s romance with Amelia fizzled out and they decided to go their separate ways.
‘To friends, it would seem as though they haven’t ended on the best terms because they’re no longer in contact and have unfollowed each other on Instagram.
‘Amelia has been sharing cryptic Instagram posts on her latest holiday which would suggest their relationship didn’t end well.’
In July last year, Chelcee shared photos of herself spending time with girlfriend Amelia, as the two had a roast dinner together, kissed in a supermarket and wore friendship bracelets.
Later in the month, Chelcee shared another image of Amelia applying her lip liner over lunch and in November they enjoyed a trip to New York together.
Their interactions over Instagram were constant, with Amelia calling Chelcee a ‘beautiful girl’ and supporting her work projects with love heart emojis.
In May, as Chelcee celebrated her birthday, Amelia commented her love for the star yet now, the pair no longer follows each other on Instagram.
MailOnline has approached Chelcee and Amelia for comment.

Chelcee, who has also previously romanced former Love Island star Megan Barton Hanson, grew close to Christine following the TV star’s split from husband Paddy.
The pair met on ITV show The Games in 2022 and grew close the following year, which saw them kiss while on holiday in Ibiza.
Christine, whose three children are all autistic, also attended Winter Wonderland with Chelcee and they were seen kissing in a picture shared to Snapchat.
Chelcee and Christine have enjoyed several holidays together in recent years, having jetted off to the likes of Santorini, Croatia and Greece on girls’ trips with friends.
Sources close to the pair said Chelcee was there for Christine following her divorce to Paddy, which the glamour model described as one of the worst times in her life.
Their close friendship reportedly ended, with the pair unfollowing each other on Instagram, and Christine recently went onto appear on the upcoming series of Celebs Go Dating, which she filmed for two weeks before quitting.
