James Haskell reveal furious Boxing Day bust up with Richard Madeley

JAMES Haskell has revealed his father-in-law Richard Madeley told him to “f**k off” during a bust-up on Boxing Day.

The former rugby player, 37, recalled the incident as he admitted Christmas was much better this year because Richard wasn’t cooking.

James, wife Chloe and daughter Bodhi spent the festive day with Richard and wife Judy.

Speaking on This Morning today, he told Andi Peters and Josie Gibson: “Christmas was good. This year he wasn’t allowed to cook because first time I met him I got invited over on Boxing Day. I was told he can be a little bit tricky in the kitchen, don’t go in there.

“Of course that was a red rag to a bull, son-in-law wanting to make a good impression.

“I went in there and gave him a bit of chat. He used one of those ‘f’ words and I quickly went back to my wife and said ‘I probably need to go, your father has just told me to go away’.

“She said ‘oh don’t worry, he does that to everyone, he did that to Jamie Oliver.’”

James continued: “This year he was thrown out of the kitchen because we wanted it to be stress free and Chloe’s brother Dan cooked an absolute storm, very relaxing, we were looked after like royalty, it was amazing.”

Chloe and James met in 2014  and got hitched during Christmas 2018.

They revealed they were having a baby of Chloe’s dad’s show Good Morning Britain.

James appeared on the show alongside Richard, who proudly shared a photo of Chloe’s 12 week baby scan.

James previously spoke out about what a great grandparent Richard is, saying: “Do you remember the other night he came in and she wasn’t settling and as soon as he started talking to her she settled like an absolute dream, I would say he is like the baby whisperer.”
