What a smashing good time! Katharine McPhee’s split from her ex-husband Nick Cokas may have been messy, but the pair seem to be friendlier than ever. The exes grabbed a bite to eat together at West Hollywood’s Coffee Commissary on Tuesday, May 5.
The Smash alum dressed casually, with Cokas, 50, even sweetly caressing her face mid-meal. But her rep tells Us Weekly that the two were just having a business breakfast meeting and have simply remained amicable since their breakup.
McPhee and Cokas’ relationship fell apart after the actress was photographed making out with her former Smash director Michael Morris in October 2013. The American Idol alum tried to salvage her six-year marriage, but ultimately filed for divorce in May 2014. (Morris is still married to actress Mary McCormack since the cheating scandal. The couple have three young daughters.)
McPhee, 31, has bounced back since the public hiccup, and quickly found luck in the love department once more. Us exclusively revealed in September 2014 that the star is dating her Scorpion costar Elyes Gabel, 31. The couple have been caught on set kissing, and were very affectionate during the show’s Hollywood premiere at nightspot Warwick on Sept. 22.
“[They] were inseparable,” an insider told Us at the time, “and got cozy all night.” A source tells Us that the couple are very much still together and in love.
