Inside cricketer Michael Clarke’s wild 40th birthday in Sydney

Pip Edwards is rumoured to have reconciled with her ex, cricketer Michael Clarke.

But when the sportsman held a lavish celebration for his 40th over the Easter long weekend in Sydney, the P.E founder appeared nowhere to be seen.

The former batsman instead marked his milestone birthday with a host of celebrity pals, cocktails, and a delicious assortment of catered platters.

The invite-only soiree was held at Michael’s Sydney bachelor pad and was white themed, with all guests wearing the tone from head-to-toe.  

While on-and-off girlfriend Pip appeared to be a no-show, Michael’s bash saw celebrity accountant Anthony Bell, model Laura Csortan, art collector Dina Broadhurst, and his personal assistant Sasha Louise in attendance.

SketchShe video creators Lana Kington and Madison Lloyd, and Bondi-based photographer Craig Quinn and his wife Leanne were pictured making the most of the event’s outdoor picnic rugs and fringed umbrellas.

Celebrating in style, Michael was seen tucking into an epic charcuterie board, with figs, berries, apricots, crackers and cheese.

While Pip appeared to miss the bash, so too did Michael’s ex-wife Kyly, who on Saturday was attending DWTS: All Star’s wrap party. 

Interestingly, Michael and Pip had sparked reconciliation rumours just a week earlier after the duo were reportedly spotted enjoying a meal together in Sydney.

Following Michael’s party, the pair were again spotted together, sending speculation of a renewed romance into overdrive.

On Sunday, they were pictured boarding a boat together at Sydney’s Rose Bay Marina with Pip’s 13-year-old son, Justice.

The former lovers appeared in very high spirits as they walked beside each other for a sun-drenched day on the water. 

On Easter Monday, Pip certainly had some pep in her step as told her Instagram followers she had a ‘cracker of a long weekend’.

In February, it was reported that Pip, 41, and Michael, 40, had split, less than a year after the pair went public with their relationship.

When contacted about their split at the time, Pip told Daily Mail Australia: ‘I have no comment, no comment at all.’

At the time, sources close to the pair said that despite the split, they remained good friends and the split was ‘amicable’.
