Inside Poh Ling Yeow’s bizarre love square: MasterChef star leans on her ex-husband and his new wife for support as she returns to work – following her split from her second spouse Jonathan Bennett

Poh Ling Yeow announced her shock split from her husband Jonathan Bennett last month after six years of marriage.

And now the MasterChef star is getting through the breakup by putting on a brave face and returning to work. 

On Sunday, the 48-year-old was spotted selling her famous desserts at her Jamface market stall in Adelaide, alongside her best friend Sarah, who is married to her first husband Matt Phipps.

Poh looked tense as she chatted to the pair while making her delicious treats as the shoppers lined up.

She looked stylish in a pair of tiny black shorts and a green jumper.

Poh was all glammed up for the occasion, and wore makeup which consisted of red lipstick and light foundation.

The 48-year-old swept her dark locks back into a ponytail as she cooked up a storm.

It appears Matt has stepped in to work for Jonathan, who was noticeably absent from the markets.

Poh split from Matt in 1999, but the acclaimed chef has remained close friends with her ex, who is a co-owner of Jamface.

In 2018, Jonathon admitted Poh and Matt’s relationship was something that used to make him feel ‘jealous’.

‘It was something we all had to work on essentially,’ Jono told Woman’s Day. ‘I know it’s very human to be jealous, but it doesn’t make it right.

‘There’s a lot of history [between Poh and Matt], so it’s not something that can be taken away. It’s not something that should be.’

Last month, Poh announced she had split from her second husband Jonathan after six years of marriage, and 12 years together in total.

Speaking to The Weekend Australian magazine, she said: ‘2021 is about me doing the things I love and remembering who I am without another person. [Husband] Jono and I broke up.’

‘But Jono and I still work together and are the best of friends,’ she said.

Poh became a household name after appearing on MasterChef season one in 2009.
