Emily McKay and her AFL star partner Majak Daw confirmed their shock split in December, one year after they welcomed their first child together.
But the former WAG put her heartache behind her on Friday, as she partied the day away with her pals including Bec Judd and Nadia Bartel in Melbourne – hours before the city plunges into a strict five-day lockdown at midnight.
Emily was spotted dancing wildly – and enjoying a friendly spank from a male pal – as the glamorous gang partied on a luxury disco bus to celebrate Kylie Brown’s birthday.

The group shared a string of updates from the wild shindig as they drove to Zonzo Estate vineyard in Yarra Valley to enjoy a sit-down meal.
Emily donned an yellow floaty top and skirt for the occasion, which draped over her slender frame to perfection.
She wore a dash of make-up on her face to accentuate her striking features, and whisked her hair into a casual bun.
At one point, the blonde enjoyed a brief outfit change to an orange playsuit.
In another video, Emily was seen lifting her leg into the air while Kylie – who is the wife of AFL star Jonathan Brown – danced behind her.

The lavish party comes just weeks after Emily and her beau parted ways.
Despite the break-up, the couple said that they plan to make their young son Hendrix, one, their main priority.
The split came two years after Majak nearly died after plunging from a bridge in December 2018.
Four months ago, Emily sent a gushing message thanking Majak’s supporters for helping him through his recovery.

‘Every nurse, doctor and surgeon we met along the way. Words can’t describe how grateful we are and how amazing you are,’ she wrote in August.
Majak made his fairytale return to footy during the Covid-interrupted 2020 season, putting the grim reality of his mental demons behind him.
Almost two years after the distraught star plunged from Melbourne’s Bolte Bridge, the Sudanese-born North Melbourne player, 29, geared up for the North Melbourne Kangaroos.
The bridge plunge shattered his hips and pelvis, and the chances of him ever returning to AFL seemed beyond remote.
On the night he fell, Majak reportedly had a fight with Emily and had taken a sleeping pill – Stillnox – notorious for mental side effects. His car was also found abandoned nearby the river.

In order to return to the field, a surgeon placed a 15-centimetre metal rod in each hip.
Majak said in a statement after the incident: ‘To all our beloved fans and members, I just wanted to thank everyone for their love and support over the past month.
‘My attitude and outlook towards everything has improved. I hope to be back out there playing in the blue and white stripes soon.
‘Thank you all for respecting my need for privacy and for giving me the chance to get better going forward.’
Majak said he felt a responsibility to show others who are struggling with mental health – particularly through lockdown – that there is a way through their despair.
