Later the same day, Dan was pictured arriving at the house. However it was previously understood that he has moved out of their home.
Amber has just returned from a UAE city celebrating her mum Suzanne's 60th birthday following the shock split.
Despite being an item since 2017, it's certainly not the first time cracks have shown in Dan and Amber's relationship.
Last year, Ella Rae Wiseslammed the former electrician for acting 'inappropriately' in a nightclub and claimed Amber shouldn't trust him.
TOWIE star Ella, then 22, told MailOnline Dan 'needs to keep his hands to himself' and she was shocked he behaved in such a way given he's in a long-term relationship.
In an exclusive interview, Ella explained that Dan is yet to apologise for the incident, which allegedly took place during a night out last year, and she's been branded a 'liar' by her co-stars, including Amber's close friends Chloe Meadows and Courtney Green.
She said: 'Dan needs to keep his hands to himself really. He shouldn't touch up other girls when he has a girlfriend.
'He was hands on and given he has a girlfriend, it was inappropriate.
'With his track record I don't know how she can allow her man to go out.

'I'm not the biggest fan of theirs and they're not the biggest fans of me but I'm the worst person he could have touched up in a club because I'm not going to keep it a secret.
'I've been called a liar, which is fine because I've been called a liar before on the show and I can see why they would have animosity towards me but if her boyfriend were to touch up someone – I'm not the best person because I am going to tell the truth.
'Those girls automatically thought I was lying about it, but I wasn't. Dan was horrible to me afterwards, but you'll see on the new series.'
A source close to the show told MailOnline: 'Dan put his hands around Ella's waist while they were in a club – nothing more.'
