The actress, who only recently split with the Australian cricketer, made the tongue in cheek jibe yesterday on her Instagram page by seemingly implying that Shane’s new squeeze, Michelle Mone, resembles a character from Planet Of The Apes.
Posting on the micro-blogging site, the 48 year old captioned the picture, “No accounting for taste”.
The picture shows actor Charlton Heston giving a female ape a cheeky snog, in a still from the 1960’s movie.
However it wasn’t as indirect as maybe Liz had hoped, as her followers soon picked up on the apparent joke, with one writing, “It's Michelle and Warnie right? Rejection does funny things to peoples psyche.”
Another added, “Thought that was Warnie for a minute...pheww ”
Liz posted the picture in the same week a national newspaper revealed how Shane and Michelle had been spending time together – just days after the couple had reportedly reunited for Valentine’s day.
This isn’t the first time the Bedazzled actress has hinted at her old flame online, as she posted just days ago:
“Everything happens for a reason. But sometimes the reason is that you're stupid and you make bad decisions.”
