Cheryl Cole splits from Ashley Cole

Pop star Cheryl Cole is separating from her husband footballer Ashley Cole, her spokesman has announced.

"Cheryl asks the media to respect her privacy during this difficult time," a statement said.

The announcement follows speculation about the couple's private life and recent press reports that their four-year marriage was in trouble.

A Girls Aloud spokesman said the band would not be commenting in public, but were supporting Cole "in private".

Fidelity

The 26-year-old X Factor judge married the Chelsea and England player in 2006, in a lavish ceremony in Hertfordshire.



The couple's wedding featured in OK! magazine
The pair met in 2004 and were engaged a year later after the footballer proposed in Dubai.

Glossy magazine OK! covered the wedding, despite Cole's earlier insistence that the ceremony would be a "quiet affair".

In 2008, the couple's marriage was rocked by tabloid speculation about Ashley Cole's fidelity. The Girls Aloud star fled the country and was pictured without her wedding ring.

In a later interview with Jonathan Ross, the singer sported the wedding band and joked: "I was tempted to put it back on his head!"


BBC's Lizo Mzimba: "I don't think this has surprised many people"
Speaking about press interest in her life, the singer added: "There's no such thing as a private life in this industry.

"I spoke openly about my marriage in the past and it's come back to hit me in the face. I learnt from the past that you shouldn't do that."

The singer performed her solo track Fight For This Love at the Brit Awards earlier this month and flew to the US afterwards before returning to the UK earlier today.

Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole, 29, had ankle surgery earlier this month but his club manager Carlo Ancelotti expects him to be fit to play in the World Cup which starts in South Africa in June.

Cheryl Cole Confirms The Obvious

Cheryl and Ashley Cole, The Dollar Tree's answer to Posh & Becks, announced today they are officially no more. This not-so-shocking news comes after the millionth trick ho came forward claiming that she had an affair with the Tiger Woods of the UK. Cheryl's rep had this to say:

"Cheryl Cole is separating from her husband Ashley Cole. Cheryl asks the media to respect her privacy during this difficult time. We have no further comment to make."

Oh well. You get married, you stick your dick in any vagina but your wife's, and then you get separated. These things happens. The truth is, Ashley and Cheryl already served their purpose as a couple. The chav angels only brought them together so that they could pose in the stunning work of art above. Done!

They are both better off going their own ways, and fortunately, there are no children to get caught up in any of it.

[Squizree]

I hope everyone realizes that she only married him to divorce him

 

[LolaSvelt]

Why do they keep shoving her down our throats acting like we're supposed to care?

 

[Label Basher]

^ Because she's on X-factor and is like so pretty with her fake hair and super cool thigh tattoo. She is like England's top fashion icon but after Jordan of course.

That pic above is bloody hilarious. Look at her top and his whole outfit.

I liked her better in Girls Aloud because they were too awful to be famous. Is he doing the crucifix in that picture?!
