Vanessa Feltz has award run-in with ex Ben Ofoedu and new girlfriend

Vanessa Feltz faced everyone's worst nightmare when she came face-to-face with her ex and his new girlfriend.

The This Morning agony aunt, 61, rocked up to a special performance of West End show Back To The Future to mark it's 1,000th performance only to discover that Ben Ofoedu and his plus one Precious Muir, had walked the red carpet just minutes before her.

Feltz and Ofoedu, who were engaged, were together for 16 years before she announced last year that they had split after she had found out that he had been unfaithful.

While she threw herself into single life and signed up to E4 dating show, Celebs Go Dating, Phats and Small singer Ofoedu, 51, has been seeing TV personality Muir, 34.

They first stepped out together last month, where she admitted that they were spending time with each other, but insisted to the MailOnline that they were not yet "putting a label on things".

According to the Daily Star, Feltz's response upon learning he was at the same event, was to look towards him and mutter: "Oh no, oh no".

Ever the professional however, she proceeded to playfully pose for the waiting cameras at the Adelphi Theatre by pulling an array of expressions.

She can also take heart in that she looked fabulous dressed in a low cut leopard print dress, with trendy black boots.
