Chloe Sims was forced to make a quick exit from a bar on Sunday night as she risked an awkward run-in with ex Pete Wicks.
The TOWIE star, 38, looked glamorous dressed in a long fur coat as she arrived outside the Jin Bo Law skybar in central London.
However, Chloe quickly turned around and headed home after learning her on-off ex Pete, 32, was inside, and narrowly missed him as he emerged soon after.

It’s over: The narrowly-missed encounter comes after Chloe decided to cut ties with on-off lover Pete around Christmas following a tumultuous romance
In December, a source told New Magazine: ‘Pete backed off, insisting that as much as he does love her, he just doesn’t want to be her boyfriend.
‘Chloe was really hurt and this was her breaking point. She decided she can’t keep him in her life and so she cut him out.
‘She’s devastated because she put her cards on the table and allowed herself to be vulnerable, only to be rejected by him again. It hurts but she knows she can’t spend another Christmas feeling lonely and pining for him.’
The insider added their relationship is ‘over for good’ because Chloe wants to settle down, while Pete is happy single.
