The 41-year-old business woman is no doubt bracing herself for the launch of Michael Mone's new brand, which is entitled Pendulum Apparel.
And to make matters worse, Micahel has hired former Ultimo designer Samantha Bunn - who he was accused of having an affair with during his marriage to Michelle.
"This is a slap in the face for Michelle. Michael is really experienced and Samantha is one of the hottest designers. It seems like a dream combination," a source told The Sun.
The news comes as the blonde mother-of-three successfully purchased Michael's share of Ultimo.

He previously held 48 per cent of the shares which are valued at £50 million.
Michelle divorced her husband in January this year, and had sacked Samantha after believing that the two of them had been having an affair.
But 48-year-old Michael has always denied the allegations, saying at the time: "Prior to our split, there was no relationship. If anyone is saying that is the reason for the split, that is untrue."
