Only hours before her arrest, Kirsty posted a picture to Instagram of her and her friends enjoying a night out at the Winning Post pub in Winkfield, Berkshire.

She captioned the picture with the words: “Night with @nudbruce…@anniehoy @hal_y_pablito _winningpostwinkfield.”

It’s believed that her children stayed with her ex-husband, former England rugby international Paul Sampson, overnight.
