She has a long list of high-profile exes, including fashion mogul Dan Single, cricket captain Michael Clarke and Grill’d co-founder Geoff Bainbridge.
And Pip Edwards has now added another man to the Hall of Fame.
A source intimately acquainted with Edwards’ personal life confirms the fashion designer has quietly split from her latest squeeze, Joshua Clapp.
The P.E Nation founder, 44, had been dating 52-year-old Clapp for the past few months.
Their romance was a cause célèbre in the eastern suburbs because he is the ex-partner of Edwards’ best friend Leah Simmons, the famous personal trainer behind workout program KΛΛIΛΛ.
Clapp, who runs construction firm Steel + Stitch which designs some of Sydney’s trendiest hospitality venues, shares a teenage son named Ryder with Simmons.

We are told the relationship ended because Clapp wanted to live a quieter life and ‘was over the drama that inevitably comes with dating a spicy pocket rocket like Pip’
While they had been separated for years before he started dating Edwards, news they were an item still raised plenty of eyebrows among the city’s high society set.
We are told the relationship ended because Clapp wanted to live a quieter life.
‘At the end of the day, he’s a single dad with a stressful job. He was over the drama that inevitably comes with dating a spicy pocket rocket like Pip,’ a source said.
Edwards and Clapp also recently unfollowed each other on Instagram. Daily Mail Australia has contacted both parties for comment.
The pair was first spotted together during a romantic day at the beach in December.
Edwards couldn’t keep her hands off Clapp as they frolicked in the water before returning to the shore for a snuggle.
Back in February 2021, Edwards was seen spending time with Simmons and her daughter Lucky just months before the trainer announced her split from then-husband Adrian Reed.
Despite their separation, Simmons and Clapp are, by all accounts, very close and regularly post about one another on Instagram.

Prior to her romance with Clapp, Pip was linked to multimillionaire businessman Geoff Bainbridge, best known for co-founding popular burger chain Grill’d.
They had even been pictured together in the U.S. where Edwards was on a business trip for fashion label Ksubi.
But her fling with Bainbridge, 52, was just a flash in the pan because she moved swiftly on with Clapp shortly after getting back to Sydney.
Edwards is also known for her high-profile relationship with former Australian cricketer Michael Clarke. The pair went their separate ways in early 2021.
However, in January 2023, Clarke was sensationally accused by his then-girlfriend Jade Yarbrough of sleeping with Edwards after their break-up.
The public bust-up in a Noosa park was caught on video and later sold to the press.
A remorseful Clarke later took full responsibility for what happened. For her part, Edwards claimed she had been ‘blatantly lied to’.
