Despite their once tight bond, the two women are thought to have "little to no contact" these days.
They suddenly unfollowed each other on social media in 2023.
And last year Chelcee teased a new romance on Instagram before liking a damning comment about Christine.
It read "Christine is fake as they come, Chelcee deserved so much better.
"Christine can keep trying to get attention and fake a new romance."
The former pals met while taking part in ITV's The Games in 2022 - months before Christine and Paddy announced their shock split.
Last year Christine revealed she is currently celibate - but Chelcee, who also previously abstained from sex, blasted her for "copying" her.
Writing on Instagram she said of Christine: "Honestly just gotta laugh at this point. Copies everything I do."
Christine recently opened up about having relationships with both men and women.
Speaking on the How To Fail podcast, Christine said: "It shouldn't matter somebody's gender.

"It never mattered to me, which was why once me and my ex-husband were separated and I met people, I didn't properly date.
'It was more like blurred the lines of friendships for me, that was normal.
"It felt comfortable because I'd done that as a teenager and I, as a teenager, I dated both men and women."
Last month Christine, who shares twins Leo and Penelope, eight, and 11-year-old Felicity with Paddy, made the decision to quit Celebs Go Dating after flying to Ibiza for filming.

Sue Cleaver reflects on '25 years of laughs' after Coronation Street exit
Eileen Grimshaw had a special send-off during Friday's episode of the soap, where she was seen leaving for Thailand alongside her son Jason Grimshaw, played by Ryan Thomas. Simon Gregson's character Steve McDonald, Tony Maudsley's George Shuttleworth, and Eileen's son Todd, played by Gareth Pierce, all said goodbye to the matriarch before drivers from the local taxi firm honked their horns as she was driven off. In an Instagram post, Cleaver said: 'Well… that's a wrap. 25 years of laughs, tears, costumes, chaos — and one unforgettable journey. A post shared by Sue Cleaver (@officialsuecleaver) 'I'll miss this character like crazy, but what a ride it's been. Thank you for every moment.' Cleaver has played the outspoken and uncomplicated Eileen in the ITV show since 2000. Eileen came to Weatherfield to work at the local taxi firm, Streetcars, to provide for her two tearaway teenage children, Jason and Todd. She soon became friends with her boss Steve and came into conflict with Helen Worth's character Gail Rodwell (also known as Gail Platt). Cleaver took part in I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2022, where she opened up about reconciling with her birth mother, and was eliminated third. She also said her family is 'bizarrely interconnected' to other Coronation Street stars, including Worth who is godmother to one of her half-sisters, while her other half-sister's husband, John Bowe, appeared on the cobbles as Duggie Ferguson. In 2024, she released a book A Work In Progress in which she discusses how she feels she is not past her prime. In recent years she has appeared as a panellist on ITV chat show Loose Women.
