Rochelle was stood with husband Marvin Humes, tasked with pranking Roman Kemp who was talking on camera. But behind Roman and the Humes, Myleene is clearly seen in a red dress holding back, quickly glancing to keep the coast clear. The following year, Rochelle, Roman and Myleene promoted the show together, with Roman standing between the two as they teased the night ahead. Rochelle and Roman were seen raising a glass and joking about getting "absolutely f***ed", with Myleene joining in without raising a toast. The trio later presented the awards show together at London's Eventim Apollo, with Rochelle and Myleene often appearing on stage next to other. The events came five years after Myleene and Rochelle ended their friendship over Rochelle's seeming support of Myleene's ex-husband, Graham Quinn. The singer and presenter split from showbiz security manager Graham in 2013, with Rochelle giving Graham somewhere to stay after moving out of the marital home. Rochelle and her JLS pop star husband Marvin have also been pictured having dinner with Graham in Ibiza. Their continued friendship is said to have caused a rift between Rochelle and ex-Hear'Say star Myleene — who believes she took Graham's side. Emotional Myleene Klass claims she caught ex cheating on her with another celebrity at a party But a source defended Rochelle's actions and told The Sun: 'Rochelle was doing what she saw as looking out for a friend in a time of need. 'Rochelle and Marvin are still clearly very much friends with Graham. "Myleene is of the view that Rochelle took sides from the beginning of her marriage breakdown. "The fact Rochelle and Graham's friendship is still there after all these years has put an everlasting rift between Myleene and Rochelle. 'They both do everything in their power to avoid each other.' 9 The duo also presented the awards show together in 2018 alongside Roman 9 Myleene is believed to have been annoyed Rochelle 'took Graham's side' in their split Credit: Getty 9 Graham and Myleene married in 2011 but split just two years later Last week, we told how Myleene was locked in a feud with Rochelle and Saturdays' bandmate Frankie Bridge, who were both clients of Graham. Frankie and Rochelle also have fallen out since their years in The Saturdays – and after a near-miss at Wimbledon last month appeared to trade jabs with veiled public messages on Instagram. Frankie shared a TikTok about falling out with a friend, which read: 'You're so quiet…Thanks, you said something five years ago and I've just realised you're actually dead to me.' Meanwhile, Rochelle - who was in The Saturdays band with Frankie since 2007 - uploaded an equally thought-provoking message about "choosing partners wisely." However, since then Rochelle appears to have tried to offer an olive branch with a simple like on Instagram. 9 Rochelle and husband Marvin have been seen pictured with Graham having drinks in Ibiza Credit: Instagram 9 The duo awkwardly had to work together for the event Credit: PA
