Millie Mackintosh reveals plans for an ‘alternative Valentine’s Day’ as she has her first one since her split from husband Hugo Taylor

Millie Mackinosh has posted about celebrating Valentine’s Day differently this year, following her breakup with husband Hugo Taylor.

Former Made In Chelsea star, age 36, posted a photo on Instagram on Friday of a message written on a London Underground whiteboard suggesting alternatives to Valentine’s Day.

Several ideas were proposed for celebrating with friends, including ‘Galentine’s Day’ for celebrating with female friends, ‘Malentine’s Day’ for celebrating with male friends, and simply ‘Palentine’s Day’ for celebrating with all friends.

The campaign also playfully proposed alternative Valentine’s Day themes: ‘Salentine’s Day’ for shopping, ‘Sailentine’s Day’ for a boat trip, and ‘Tailentine’s Day’ for spending time with pets.

Earlier in the day, Millie teamed up with Sainsbury’s to promote their Valentine’s Day products.

Millie shared a photo on Instagram looking gorgeous in a see-through white top and white satin skirt while preparing a meal of steak, glazed carrots, and truffle potatoes.

Oh my gosh, you would NOT believe it! Millie, she’s just the sweetest, was getting ready for her friends, and it looked like she totally upped the ante on her ‘Dine in for Two’ night! She was setting the table for four people, can you even imagine?! And she was pouring sparkling cider – non-alcoholic, of course, she’s so thoughtful – into all the glasses. It was just… perfect. I was totally watching, naturally.

She wrote that this year, Sainsbury’s made it really simple to celebrate Galentine’s Day, which is perfect when you’re having guests over.

I love Galentine’s Day – it’s the perfect reason to gather with my female friends, put on something nice, and just relax and have a good time together.

Millie is prioritising her gal pals following her split from Hugo earlier this month.

Former Made In Chelsea stars, parents to five-year-old Sienna and four-year-old Aurelia, revealed they are splitting up on February 2nd, after being married for seven years.

People familiar with the situation say the couple is dedicated to raising their young children together and creating a supportive family environment, and their children remain their main focus.

The couple first became romantically involved while appearing on the reality show Made In Chelsea as teenagers, and they had been married since June 2018.

Millie and Hugo have separated and decided to go their separate ways, according to a source speaking with the Daily Mail.

After knowing each other for a long time, they recently had some difficult talks about their future and have decided to separate.

Their children and family are the most important things to them, and they never wanted to separate.

They’re currently figuring out what it would be like to live separately and how they’ll share the responsibilities of raising their young children.

The beginning of the year has been really challenging, and they’re hoping to continue dealing with things privately.

Last month, Millie went to India for a wellness retreat focused on calming and restoring the nervous system, while Hugo was enjoying a ski trip.

While on vacation, the TV personality was seen without her wedding ring and posted messages hinting at a fresh start.

She also posted a quote that read: ‘You don’t always have to know what comes next in your journey.

It’s okay to simply be present and accept where you are right now. There’s a real beauty in self-acceptance, especially in this moment.

Whatever your goals are, remember that enjoying today is just as important as working towards the future.

She also posted a quote to her Instagram story that read: ‘And then the moon said to me, dear girl, it’s time to embrace your strength.’

I remember when Millie first connected with Hugo – she was just a teenager then! They started dating when she turned 21, and it was amazing to watch them both become well-known as they appeared on that E4 reality show together. It really felt like we were all experiencing their journey with them.

In 2013, the heiress married rapper Professor Green, who is now 42, but they divorced in 2016. That same year, she got back together with Hugo.

They got married two years after they first met and had their first daughter, Sienna, in 2020. A year later, in 2021, they welcomed their second daughter, Aurelia.
