The British star chose to put all the drama behind her, however, when she took to her Instagram Stories on Wednesday.
Instead, Cat posted a sweet snapshot showing one of her young sons reading a book written by her good friends, Ant and Dec. The family photo sees the little boy holding a copy of Propa Happy – an illustrated children's activity book aimed to help power positivity.
Cat and husband Patrick Kielty - who have been married since 2012 - are doting parents to two little boys: James, four, and six-year-old Milo, who was born in 2016.
