Linda Robson has been pictured out and about for the first time since reports suggested she'd fallen out with her Birds of a Feather co-star Pauline Quirke.
The Loose Women star, 62, has worked with the actress on and off since the late 1980s, when the both shot to fame on the hit BBC sitcom.
However, Pauline was absent from last year's Christmas special and a later report suggested she'd had a massive fall out with Linda and fellow castmember Lesley Joseph.
Linda has now been spotted out for the first time since the story emerged.
The actress was pictured walking to her car, bundled up in a warm winter coat and a navy blue bobble hat.
Rumours of trouble among the Birds of a Feather first emerged last month, when The Sun reported Linda and Lesley are no longer speaking to Pauline following a series of arguments.
It was suggested one particularly nasty row between Pauline and Lesley left the friendship between the three stars in tatters.
A source said: "The nadir came during one astonishing row at Teddington Studios, culminating in Pauline and Lesley squaring off, noses centimetres apart, outside the women's loos.
"They were basically pulled apart by stunned crew members. Things went rapidly downhill from there."
They insider added: "Linda doesn't believe they'll ever speak again."
It later emerged that Lesley had posted a picture on her Instagram last year promoting the 2020 Christmas special but Pauline had been cropped out.
Linda later fuelled rumours of a feud when she posted a "Galentine's Day" tribute to her female friends and colleagues last month - and Pauline was missing from the snaps.
The Christmas special which aired last year featured both Linda and Lesley, but Pauline's character Sharon was not in the show.
Sharon's absence was explained by her being stuck on a cruise ship near Costa Rica.
Linda had previously announced news of the Christmas special during an appearance on Loose Women, and said Pauline had decided to give up acting.
She explained: "Pauline didn't do it, she didn't want to this year, she wants to give up acting and she wants to carry on with her acting academy.
"We really missed her, but it's her choice."
Linda and Pauline first worked together on 1970 film Junket 89 before later finding fame together playing best friends on Birds of a Feather, which debuted in 1989.
The show ran until 1998 before being revived in 2014.
