Nicola Sturgeon has ruled out any potential reconciliation with her predecessor Alex Salmond - saying she wants to spend the time she has left on earth with people she likes.
The former first minister told a fringe event with broadcaster Iain Dale that a reunion between the SNP figureheads was not something she could foresee or wanted.
On Wednesday, Mr Salmond refused to rule out a reconciliation with his former deputy of seven years, stating "never say never".
Responding to a question asked by an audience member, Ms Sturgeon said: "I was very close to Alex for a long, long time. We achieved great things together and I'll always be proud of that.
"I'm not trying to re-write history here but over recent years he has revealed himself to be somebody that I don't want to have in my life, I don't particularly want to have a relationship with.
"We don't have long on this planet, we've got a limited amount of time to spend with people. I want to spend the time I have with people who make me happy and who I like."
Ms Sturgeon added that her opinion of Mr Salmond no longer came from a place of anger, but from a place of indifference.
The pair had a close working relationship for many years, but they fell out when allegations of sexual harassment were made against Mr Salmond by two female civil servants in 2018.
The complaints were made after Ms Sturgeon asked for new government policies on sexual harassment to be put in place. Mr Salmond believed the policy was aimed at him.
He was acquitted of all charges following a court case.
