While Ed was out partying, ex Tamara was also out for the evening, but instead attended a performance of Frozen the musical at the West End.
While neither Ed nor Tamara have commented on the split, the model hinted at unease on Wednesday as she shared a cryptic video of Oprah.
In the clip, Oprah said: ‘When people show you who they really are, why don’t you believe them?
‘Why must you be shown 29 times before you can see who they really are. Why can’t you get it the first time when people show you who they are? Believe them the first time’.
MailOnline has contacted Ed and Tamara’s representatives for comment.

The couple first got together in October 2019, after Ed slid into Tamara’s DMs.
She explained during an Instagram Q&A last year: ‘Going to answer this first because it’s my most asked question, and probably the reason a lot of you follow me.
‘He direct messaged me out of the blue saying hi and I nearly fell off my chair, we then chatted for a while and he asked me on a date, which I assumed would be a dinner.
‘Instead he took me to a butterfly sanctuary in Mayfair, we thereafter spent the whole day exploring London together, and the rest is history.
‘I feel like we have all become codependent with our partners this year (I know I have) I think it’s really important to do things alone and for yourself, read a book, go for a walk, chat to a friend.’

Speaking about the beginnings of their romance, Tamara also explained how she had to apologise to her fellow fangirl friend for going out with the hunk, as her pal initially had ‘dibs’ on him.
She said: ‘Okay here’s the tea… I was the biggest Gossip Girl fan known to man, I watched it religiously twice a year and I swear to god I manifested him actually in my life.
‘It was actually so funny though because when I first started dating him, my whole group of friends we’re super into Gossip Girl and more particularly my friend Annie and when I first started dating him I had to sit her down and apologise to her, because she was so insulted.. like how dare I she had dibs on him!’
Adding how she was ‘obsessed’ with the show, Tamara went on to say that she had she now gets reminders of Facebook statuses she used to make about Gossip Girl, adding her obsession was ‘kinda weird’.
