Emily Atack and Seann Walsh were spotted going for a cheeky Nando’s five years after their reported fling.
The pair met for a meal at the Clapham branch of the popular chicken chain, and seemed in good spirits, chatting and laughing as they ate.
An insider close to Emily told The Sun: ‘Seann is part of the writing team helping with some of the stand-up elements on the latest series of The Emily Atack Show, which is currently in production.’
It is understood the duo were on a break from work as they met up.
Emily, 31, was casual yet chic in high-waisted flared jeans, converse and a crisp blue and white striped shirt.

Seann, 35, was low-key in black jeans and trainers and a grey and white checked shirt.
Emily was seen in fits of laughter, holding her hands up to her mouth, inside the venue as they enjoyed their food.
The pair are believed to have first met on E4 panel show Virtually Famous in 2014.
In the wake of Seann’s Strictly scandal in 2018, however, when he was pictured kissing his married professional partner, Katya Jones, photos were released from 2016 that seemed to suggest a relationship with Emily.
Seann was said to be with his ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries at the time, who he dated from 2013 until she dumped him and issued a scathing Twitter statement following his dalliance with Katya.
In pictures snapped on 20 December 2016, in the Jon Snow pub in Soho, Seann and Emily were seen sitting next to each other at a small table and appeared to be holding hands.

A source told The Sun: ‘They were getting very close and looked like they were together.
‘They were very flirty and were holding hands at one point. They were touching each other’s faces as well – they looked very close.’
The pair were also said to have enjoyed ‘a series of liaisons, meeting at pubs and hotels’ in 2016, although neither has ever publicly commented on the reported relationship.

Seann has been dating Grace Adderley since 2019.
