Candice Brown cheerily walks her pug after split from husband Liam Macaulay

She has previously indicated that she feels ‘hopeless’ and ‘no good’ after secretly splitting from her husband Liam Macaulay earlier this year.

But Candice Brown seemed to be in good spirits as she took her pug Albus out for a daytime stroll in London on Monday.

The Great British Bake Off star, 35, shared adorable selfies of her and her pooch with her 250,000 Instagram followers as she enjoyed the crisp autumnal weather.

But she hilariously admitted that the walk was more eventful than expected as Albus ‘shouted at birds’ and buses, while she accidentally ‘dropped beetroot on him’.

The TV personality donned a stylish navy baker boy cap as she flashed a slight smile for the sweet snaps.

Candice wore her golden tresses loosely falling over her shoulders and opted for a full-coverage make-up look with a slick of matte fuchsia lipstick.

Alongside the pictures, she penned: ‘Me and my Albus getting some London air. it was lovely even if he did shout at birds and people on scooters and leaves and buses and many other things and I dropped beetroot on him.’ (sic)

The TV star seemed to be keeping her head up following a difficult year, which has seen her secretly split from her husband-of-two-years Liam Macaulay. 

Back in August, Candice hinted at her ‘hopelessness’ after liking a post by artist and author Charles Mackesy, which encouraged ‘holding on’ when ‘your mind plays tricks on you’.

It read: ‘Sometimes your mind plays tricks on you. It can tell you you’re no good, that it’s all hopeless. 

‘But remember this; you are loved, and important and you bring to this world things no one else can. So hold on.’

That same day, claims emerged that Candice and her tree surgeon beau had secretly split earlier in the year.

The report asserted that Liam moved out of the pub – The Green Man in Eversholt, Milton Keynes – where the couple previously lived together, and back to Ampthill, Bedfordshire. 

According to The Mirror, Candice Brown’s representative said at the time: ‘I can confirm Candice and Liam separated earlier this year.’

The famous baker first met Liam in the bar where he worked while studying for a degree, back in 2012.

After five years of dating, the couple announced their engagement in October 2017, just over a year after she first appeared on Bake Off, which she went on to win.

In September 2018, Candice exchanged nuptials with her longtime love at Château de Varennes in Burgundy, France.

Candice revealed the happy news on Twitter, simply writing: ‘Got married, didn’t we?’

She later wrote: ‘The congratulations & love we have received is incredible! Thank you so much for all your kind words!

‘I keep bursting into tears (of complete overwhelming happiness & joy) -to anyone posting negative comments- I hope one day you experience the love and happiness we have #wife.’

Speaking shortly after the ceremony, Candice said of their relationship: ‘We have always said we work better together than we do apart. 

‘Being able to say we are now husband and wife is such a lovely thing.’
