She called off her 19-month romance with Max George a week ago but could Michelle Keegan be having second thoughts?

The Coronation Street actress and The Wanted singer’s rocky romance finally ended on July 20 but as Michelle opened the Summer Explosion season at Drayton Manor Theme Park in Staffordshire today, he still appeared to be on her mind.

The beautiful brunette wore a simple white T-shirt with the words ‘Sont vous mon petit ami ou pas?', which translate to ‘Are you my boyfriend or not?' emblazoned inside a heart, showing that perhaps she is still invested in the relationship.

Could Michelle Keegan be sending a not so subtle message to her ex boyfriend Max George at Drayton Manor theme park opening with this slogan T-shirt which translates as 'Are you my boyfriend or not?'

Despite the ambiguity over her relationship, Michelle didn’t appear too heartbroken as she enjoyed herself on the attractions.

Wearing a pair of jeans and white plimsolls, her dark hair was tied in a loose bun on top of her head.

Michelle also wore a pair of hooped earrings and kept her make-up simple.
She also sported a huge smile as she tried out the various rides including Ben 10 and Apolcalypse.

It was a VIP experience all the way for Keegan, 25, who was chauffeured around the park in a golf buggy.

Michelle sported two different hairstyles as she made the rounds at Drayton Manor theme park but is former boyfriend Max still on her mind with this T-short slogan which translates as 'Are you my boyfriend or not?'

She was also spotted tucking into an ice cream later and had changed her hairstyle into a loose plait.

While Michelle was in high spirits today, it is surprising she jumped on the rides with such gusto as she spend last night partying with pals in Manchester.

The newly-single star showed off her slim figure in a black and white optical illusion dress and blue suede heels as she partied at Tiger Tiger in Manchester.

Wearing a big smile on her face, there was no sign of her heartbreak following the recent end of her romance.

Michelle's night out came after she returned to Twitter on Friday after a 10 day absence.

After work on Friday, she headed up to Glasgow with her father for a personal appearance at the Savoy nightclub, before returning to Manchester on Saturday for her much needed night out.

Meanwhile, her ex-boyfriend also made a return to the spotlight following their split, joining his band The Wanted on stage at the Olympic Torch Relay concert in London's Hyde Park on Thursday.

Michelle’s spokesperson confirmed to the MailOnline that the pair had split on July 20.

The couple began dating in December 2010, with Max proposing on Michelle's birthday in June 2011.

However, they have spent most this year apart with Michelle stuck in Manchester filming Coronation Street and Max travelling all over the world with The Wanted.


Nothing better to take your mind off heartbreak than the adrenaline rush of amusement park rides!

Max stunned fans when he announced in April they had called off their engagement, but insisted they were still a couple.

In June, Max was photographed leaving a Mayfair nightclub with a pretty brunette and was photographed kissing a fan last week.

From the moment they shared their first kiss Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's relationship was dubbed a 'publicity stunt'.

But there was nothing fake about Kim's smile as she headed out on the arm of her pop star boyfriend last night.

The reality star squealed with laughter as Kanye escorted her to the Tony-winning Broadway musical Book of Mormon last night.

Turning over a new leaf: Cultured Kim Kardashian covers her curves in a demure dress to take in a show on Saturday night with Kanye West

Kim accentuated her voluptuous behind in a black satin dress complete with a peplum - a short overskirt that drew the eye to her waist.

It may be the height of fashion but this season's peplum style is notoriously difficult to wear.

But that didn't put off the famously curvy Kim.

The demure knee length dress, paired with two-toned stiletto heels, gave the 31-year-old a sophisticated air.

The brunette starlet completed the look with a gold bracelet on each arm.

Protected: A bodyguard kept close watch over Kim and Kanye as they joined the crowds in the theatre

Kim wore her long tresses blown out straight and appeared to have applied less make-up than usual.

Before heading out for the night, Kim took to Twitter to let her fans know she was back in the Big Apple.

She tweeted: 'Feels so good to be back in NYC! Fun spa day with @lorenridinger & @amberridinger! Now off to a date w my babyboo lol.'

While Kim dressed up for the night, Kanye kept things casual in white jeans, matching jacket and sweater white trainers.


Leaving so soon? A Twitter user said Kim and Kanye exited the show before it was over


Let's go: Kanye escorts Kim to a waiting car


One of the girls: Kim tweeted this picture of herself with two friends with the caption 'Yacht life with @lorenridinger @amberridinger'

Bragging rights: Kim reminded her fans that she has lots of celebrity friends by tweeting pictures of herself with Jennifer Lopez, Fergie and LaLa Vasquez

The Hollywood couple held hands as they walked into the Eugene O’Neill Theatre surrounded by security.

The crowds inside the popular show took to Twitter to dish on the duo's arrival.

'Haha Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are here,' one audience member wrote adding, 'Looks like I picked the right day to see Book of Mormon again.'


Fancy meeting you here: Kim wrote on Twitter that she bumped into her good friend Jonathan Cheban while walking the streets of New York

Another revealed the lovebirds failed to stick around for the entire show.

'At The Book of Mormon, Kim Kardashian and Kanye came in late and already left #WhereAreYouYeezy?' the person tweeted.

The Book of Mormon is a religious satire musical with a book, lyrics, and music by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators the animated comedy South Park, along with musician Robert Lopez.

If anyone understands the Chinese culture, one would know that red is the real choice of color. It symbolizes celebration, good tidings and happiness. That is why in the 2012 edition of Miss World's World Designer Award, the red gowns are most conspicuous ones. Here are the 7 gowns that Missosology thinks are the eye catching ones.


Guadeloupe - this is an interesting gown in a black canvass peppered with feathers and meticulously arranged add-ons. If there is one thing that Miss World wants from a gown it would be about putting a lot of effort in the design.


Ireland - the gown is sexiness in good taste. The see-through fabric layered with appliques is so well designed and the patterns are just creative. The red color of course is a huge plus.


Dominican Republic - silver just screams elegance and one can appreciate that this is a pretty expensive creation. Figure hugging and sparkling, this gown is simply attention grabbing.


Wales - this is something that royals like Kate Middleton would wear. The way silver was matched with red is really genius. The lithe, tall figure of Miss Wales is a great partner of this gown.


Philippines - she aced everything in this gown. It's a powerful combination of elegance and creativity using the right colors and of course having the right girl wearing this divine creation.


Colombia - this is simplicity at its best. The red gown just screams sexy despite being bereft of any fancy add-ons. Love the way Colombia struts the catwalk.


Puerto Rico - Wow and wow and more wow. This is the best gown of the evening and it is not even in red. Puerto Rico pulled this gown brilliantly that uses ranges of blue from aquamarine to zaffre. And it showed off how sexy she is too!

This unfortunately a rather disastrous group. From left to right, Miss Hong Kong China's gown picked the wrong shade of red which looks rather drab bordering to crimson. The burst of floral add-on failed to impress and the skirt has a so-so appeal. Meanwhile, Miss Bosnia and Herzegovina can be commended for using the right silver-white combination but the off the shoulder ruffles looks like a poodle split into two. Meanwhile, Miss Croatia used the wrong colors, used the wrong design and she had the wrong legs. Exposing them in a two-slit skirt is terrible. Miss Macau's color choice is great. Jade is perhaps the second most popular color in the Chinese culture. However, this gown is really for tall girls and the wide slit is doing a lot of injustice to her.


I don't know if Mongolia got the memo or something but if she is trying to be Mongolian or funny, she didn't get it right. She might be forgiven if the World Best Designer competition was held in Ordos. And what's with the makeup? This is just ridiculous and overall a huge mistake.


Normally, I would say wow to this gown but this is Miss World. If Australia got tons of email for her revealing dress, this magnificent blue is a big faux pas. I just hope Miss World will get over this part and truly appreciate the beauty and figure of Miss Nepal. The intricate beading and feathers reminds us all of the great beauty of a peacock. Final verdict: One must love this gown - and the girl!


I'm not so sure if the chocolate brown color is appropriate for evening functions because they usually dissolve into oblivion. Panama's white gown is okay but combining a soft color to metallic add ons does not really turn me on. Wales is just splendid. The red sprinkled with silver enhances her figure and she really carried this dress well. Mexico is so-so. Just imagine if her dress is red or jade, she could have aced it. It's just the wrong color choice. Peru is elegant and she carried this red gown nicely. I love her swan like neck and having a strapless gown simply highlights it.


I would like to talk the two gowns that stand out in this group of Asians. First is Indonesia's. I love the fuchsia color. It is just attention grabbing. I am not too sure though whether the busy gown is something that most people would appreciate but I would like to think that the intricacies of the add-ons could be a plus. Philippines' red gown is very regal. She did carry it well and a huge kudos to the designer for such a beautiful design. I noticed that she did not put her hands on her hips like most of the contestants does which is good because it gave emphasis to her body shape.


I'm not really a fan of whites at beauty pageants especially those that are heavily laden with appliqués. Iceland's gown for me is just as cold as ice.


This is the batch of great creations. Not really head turners but I think that most of the gowns deserves an appreciation. Miss Guatemala looks elegant, very much Jacky O. And the hairdo matches well with tangerine gown. What I like most about her gown are the creative folds and pleats. Fiji's gown is simplistic in design but the combination of rose and black tones with interesting patterns on the fabric is commendable. Miss Guam's green dress failed her. I mean the gown itself is wonderful, well except for the cape, but the big trouble is Guam appeared shapeless on this wardrobe. Unlike Miss El Salvador's which hugged her body form well. I also like the design which is kind of lacy and then it is given a fiery treatment at the bottom part. She also appeared pretty much comfortable wearing the gown!


I am not sure if I will fall in love with the royal blue gown of Miss France. The color does not much her skin tone. The intricate add ons on her neck and thigh is a distraction. I though the French knew better about fashion.


This is some kind of a revelation for most of these candidates. Russia is definitely fading in my list. She chose to wear some mediocre gown in here and no wonder she is not in the list of Top Model semifinalists. Poland's ash grey gown is just a wrong choice. Miss Netherlands orange gown is okay-ish. I kind of expect more and look how she compensates her height with her hairdo. Miss Ukraine is lovely but I don't expect to use turquoise feathers atop a charcoal black skirt and get a head turning result. Nice design bad color matching

Following the news that her husband had been unfaithful, the 33-year-old, who has two young children with Sanders deleted her Twitter account, presumably due to being bombarded with messages on the micro-blogging site.

'She thought it was worth it': Leopold told of how his sister moved from Britain to Hollywood for Rupert to pursue his career

Leopold, who is a musician also spoke about the fact his sisters willingness to move to Hollywood to give Sanders' career a chance had been thrown back in her face.

He said: 'She made some sacrifices for something she thought was worth it, now she knows, right? Five minutes from her home. Doubt it was worth it but it’s life.'

But positive that good will come out of the scandal, he continued: 'It might actually make things better in the long run. She wasn’t that happy for a while, but our family is close, she’ll be all right.'

Shortly after it was news of her relationship with Sanders become public knowledge, Kristen Stewart issued a grovelling public apology to co-star and boyfriend Robert Pattinson.

'I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry': Kristen issued a public apology to her boyfriend of three years Robert Pattinson after the news that she had an affair with Sanders, 41, broke

According to People, Kristen said: 'I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected.'

'This momentary indiscretion has jeopardised the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry.'

Whereas, Rupert said: 'I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family.'

'My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world.'
He told People: 'I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together.'

As details of Kristen's relationship with Rupert continues to unravel, it has now been reported that the 22-year-old actress cheated on Pattinson because she was envious of the friendship he formed with Australian beauty Emilie de Ravin on the set of Remember Me.

Sources close to Stewart said that she became 'upset' as Robert's friendship with Emilie developed, as the actors would go to bars and restaurants.

He's often seen cruising the streets of California on his beloved motorcycle but it seems that David Beckham's not so confident when it comes to driving speedboats.

The global superstar mesmerised the watching world when his long anticipated role in the London 2012 Olympic Games was finally revealed.

The 37-year-old was charged with driving the Olympic Torch via a speedboat down the River Thames, but it was down to some clever camera work that he accomplished the feat.


Easy rider: David Beckham appeared to be driving a speedboat down the River Thames carrying the Olympic Torch

The real deal: A man can be seen helping David steer the speedboat down the river with one hand on the steering wheel

Although the LA Galaxy footballer was standing at the helm with two hands firmly on the wheel, there was another man who gave a steady hand to the boat.

While viewers at home watched the dapper dressed Beckham power toward Tower Bridge, they were unable to see the other man on the boat crouching next to him.

The father-of-four looked at his best in a black suit with a matching tie and a white shirt as he smoothly smiled down the camera.


The right shot: Viewers at home saw David Beckham driving the speedboat but he was actually not alone in controlling it


Illuminating: Tower Bridge was highlighted by a dramatic fireworks show as the speedboat passed under it

In control: The LA Galaxy footballer took the experience in his stride and smiled throughout

However, the illusion created in part by director Danny Boyle was unable to fool supporters of the games who watched on from the river bank.

As David's boat, which was named Max Power, approached the famous Tower Bridge, a huge explosion of fireworks went off and added to the total experience of the opening ceremony.

Tower Bridge came alight due to the spectacular display as Beckham continued to stand at the head of the boat.


Power mover: Beckham's speedboat was dwarfed by the sheer size of the HMS Belfast

Not alone: Beckham was joined on the boat by Jade Bailey, Arsenal and England Under 17 ladies footballer player

As his boat continued along to the nearest possible water way to the Olympic stadium, his journey and involvement in the proceedings came to end.

David was greeted at the dock by Sir Steve Redgrave who took up the baton and lit his golden torch from the one Beckham had delivered.

As the five time Olympic gold medalist jogged off toward the stadium, David watched on proudly having completed his moment in the spotlight.


Still smiling: The father-of-four looked chuffed as he took in the fantastic view from the speedboat

Coming alive: Tower Bridge was the main attraction as Beckham rode along the River Thames

The footballer - who was famously snubbed from Team GB for the Games - had promised he would still play a part and he certainly didn't disappoint.

Accompanying the father-of-four on the boat was Jade Bailey, Arsenal and England Under 17 ladies footballer player, who actually had the honour of holding the torch.


Mission accomplished: With the stadium in the background the impressive scene was complete

Pleased to meet you: David was greeted by Sir Steve Redgrave at a dock near the stadium

The boat finally docked at Stratford where the flame was taken to the opening ceremony.

The football star’s role in proceedings had been shrouded in mystery.

Beckham has previously spoken of his disappointment at missing out but said he was determined to enjoy the Games as a fan.

A helping hand: The former Manchester United midfielder held the torch in place to pass on the flame

Game over: With the flame passed on, David stepped back as Sir Redgrave took on the rest of the journey

'I am going to be just proud just to be there as a fan more than anything,' he said. 'In a part of London where I grew up playing soccer over the fields that have been changed now. As a fan and an Englishman I am going to be very proud.'

David had earlier spent time with Michelle Obama where he showed her exactly how to bend it like him, in east London.

Proving the First Lady has that competitive edge she gave Team USA a rousing pep talk just hours ahead of the opening ceremony, urging the athletes to 'have fun - but also win'.


Good friends: David met First Lady Michelle Obama earlier today and gave her a big hug as he greeted her

Bend it like me: David Beckham shows Michelle Obama how to really kick a soccer ball in the right way

She met America's sports stars at their training base in east London, where she thanked them for their inspiring determination and said it was 'otherworldly' to be in London to witness them on the world stage.

Mrs Obama then hosted an exercise session as part of her 'Let's Move!' anti-obesity campaign, where she put on an affectionate and jovial display with the British footballer, who gave her tips on her soccer skills.


Copy cat: The First Lady attempted a kick of the ball under the watchful eye of Manchester United legends Peter Schmeichel and Beckham
