French Dating Again Following Marriage Split

The funnywoman announced in April (10) she had separated from Henry back in October 2009, but had chosen to keep the split private.

The pair has managed to remain amicable, with French insisting they are now the "best of friends".

And French is making the most of her new single status - she's been enjoying a string of dates with male pals, but insists she's not looking to exchange vows anytime in the future.

She says, "It's bizarre because suddenly you have a different sort of standing. You get messages on your phone - or I do - from people I've known for some time, saying, 'Might a gentleman take a lady out for dinner?' I've had a couple of nibbles... I don't really want to get remarried. I just want to have a good time."
