The Sun told how ITV had been forced to step-in to ensure there was little-to-no interaction between the former friends amid feelings of tension between the trio.
But in a huge boost to Frankie, she has cemented her position at ITV even further after bagging a brand new role on the channel.
The singer will be appearing as a judge on the upcoming series of ITV’s M&S: Dress The Nation.
Frankie has launched her own fashion edits on social media in recent years and was always noted for her style during her popstar days.
ITV were quick to jump on this and hire her to give her best critique’s to the contestants on the hit show.
It was revealed earlier this year that Dress The Nation would be back with Vernon Kay and AJ Odudu back in the hot seat to host.
A source told the Daily Star of Frankie’s casting on the show: “Producers think Frankie is perfect for the show because she’s so fashionable.”
It will no doubt raise the eyebrow of Rochelle, who is a long-standing brand ambassador for Marks & Spencer, which has an active partnership in the programme.
Despite rumours of a rift between the ladies, they dropped huge clues recently that all was well between them.
Rochelle and Frankie have both been interacting with one another on Instagram by liking a slew of each other’s snaps.
Rochelle showed her appreciation for Frankie’s holiday snaps with Frankie returning the favour on her bandmate’s posts – throwing speculation of an ongoing rift out of the window.
However, neither of the ladies have engaged with Myleene since it emerged that the former Hear’Say singer was feuding with them both.
Neither Rochelle or Frankie follow her on social media.
All three former pop stars now work as Daytime presenters at ITV.
They were all once close, with Loose Women hosts Myleene and Frankie attending Rochelle’s hen do back in 2012.
However, Rochelle and Frankie remained friends with their former bodyguard and Myleene’s ex husband Graham Quinn.

Rochelle even posted snaps with Graham in Ibiza last week.
In 2013, soon after Myleene’s divorce from Graham, guests at the Glamour Women of the Year awards saw her storm over to Frankie after believing she had been blanked.
A source previously said: “Myleene seemed to take that as Frankie taking sides with Graham because of their working relationship.”
Meanwhile, Frankie and Myleene have not appeared on Loose Women together since an “awkward” episode last December.
Sources said that though they’d rather not be on together, they are professionals and do their best to make things work.
Myleene’s shock feud explained
Myleene Klass has found herself embroiled in a bitter feud.
It all kicked off when she made shock claims about her ex-husband Graham Quinn.
The former Hear’say star claimed that she walked in on her ex and a famous woman in the industry “unzipping” each other’s clothes.
Myleene said the heartbreaking moment happened in her home at her own birthday party.
Speaking on We Need To Talk podcast, Myleene said: “It was in my house, it was my party.
“They weren’t having sex but they were unzipping each other. ‘It’s not what you think,’ but it is what I think. It’s the first thing they both said.
“I kicked everybody out of the party including his mum and dad.”
Graham is yet to respond publicly to the accusations.
However, it has ignited a feud with fellow noughties popstars, Rochelle Humes and Frankie Bridge.
The two Saturdays stars are both former clients of Graham, and have remained friends with him.
Friends told The Sun that Myleene’s claims about Graham have caused tension between her, Rochelle and Frankie.
Shortly after she dropped the cheating bombshell, Frankie then posted a cryptic video, which said that somebody was “dead to me”.
Rochelle then shared a cosy snap with Graham, along with husband Marvin Humes.
In a further twist, sources claim that Rochelle gave Myleene’s ex a place to stay when she dumped him.
