Cheryl Cole texts adios to Ashley

by

Cheryl Cole texts adios to Ashley Cheryl Cole is reported to have sent a text message to her husband informing him that their relationship is officially over.

The singer is said to have sent the message after reading in the papers about the fact that the famous footballer has five mistresses on the side.

According to friends, Cheryl will head back to the UK within this week to formally announce the split with a draft statement already created.  A friend has said she will head to LA and then consider what she wants to do next from there.

The same friend stated that she is tired of promises and excuses and is ready to move on with her life.  Cheryl intends to handle the divorce in a dignified manner and proceed as quickly and quietly so as to save both parties from further embarrassment.

Last week, one of Cole’s mistresses, the fourth to be exact, stated that Cole and called her and said that if he lost his wife over the cheating he would be devastated.

He also is rumoured to have pleaded with Ann Corbitt, a US political aide, to keep silent about having sex with her while Cheryl was on tour.  She stated that she did not know he was married until afterwards when she looked him up online.

The fifth girlfriend to come forward, Alexandra Taylor, claims that she and Cole had sex the very night that he announced he was dating Cheryl Cole.

Cole-gate keeps on rolling

Cole-gate keeps on rolling Things just keep getting worse in the rather smutty scandal going on with Ashley Cole and his long-term and apparently ongoing infidelity to his wife Cheryl.

Cole, star of the Chelsea footballers and “the world’s best left-back” first denied accusations of text-sex with model Sonia Wild, claiming he was just joking around and that the sexy snaps of himself were sent to the model after he loaned his mobile phone to a friend.  That explanation blew up when another model came forward and told The Sun

that she had received almost identical photos from Cole, and produced the proof.

Obviously, Cole did not want his wife to find out about his off-field activities.  He often stressed the need for secrecy, sending text messages to the effect that if Cheryl found out he’d be in big trouble, and to please keep his communiqués absolutely private.  His pleas were not heeded, since both Sonia and an unknown (or at least un-named) additional paramour told reporters all about it.

Meanwhile, his wife is trying to decide what to do about all this.  The phone-sex was going on for the most part while she was at work as the star of “X Factor”, and one act had to be cancelled when she dissolved in tears backstage after hearing (some of) the bad news.  However, some of her sorrow must have been relieved when her band, Girls Aloud, hit Number 1 on the charts with their single “The Promise”.

What next?  At present Ashley and Cheryl are separated, with Cheryl living in a hotel while she considers her options.

Victoria Beckham is making lots of cash from designing

Victoria Beckham is making lots of cash from designing If there has ever been doubt about the title of “fashion designer” as applied to super-mum Victoria Beckham, no one is likely to harbour it any longer.  She presented a preview of her new fall collection on Valentine’s Day during the New York Fashion Week.  This is her fourth dress collection and it certainly appears that she is very much in the forefront and on target with her trademark designs.

The VB look is sleek, elegant and timeless, though Victoria told interviewers that a lot of the influence in her latest collection came from her study of 1940’s comic strips.  Her ultra-stylish trench coat design was inspired by the Dick Tracy character, and other designs call up the understated sexiness of early Hollywood “femme’ fatale”.

Beckham said she is working with texture, draping and structure to attain ever-higher goals of elegance and fluidity in the garments she designs.  Her attention to detail is another trademark of the VB line, perfectly highlighted in her column gown with built-in corset. She hosted the small salon showing in one of her best creations, a wool tunic-dress for all occasions, completed with platform pumps designed for her by Brian Atwood.

Victoria Beckham’s top quality line keeps on selling out, even in these ‘challenging’ financial times; sales will probably run close to £4.7million in the coming year.  If, as she laughingly mentioned to reporters, her son Romeo intends to take over the business some day, he will undoubtedly have a going and growing concern to work with.

Puma corner world cup fashion

Puma corner world cup fashion The World Cup finals are coming and with them of course the chance to celebrate, incredible anticipation, and eventually commiseration for the fans of the losing team.

However, this year the finals will come with a twist as they will be held in Africa for the first time since the World Cup began and thus all the major sporting merchandise brands are gearing up with plenty of African themed items.

Puma, which has enjoyed a long standing line of sponsorship with African teams, will introduce a lifestyle clothing line that celebrates the African football team and fans.  Additionally, they received a commission for a uniform that will be worn by all African nations that are competing as part of their third kit.

With the aid of African American artist Kehinde Wiley Puma also has a commission for a wide range of training gear, street wear, footwear, and four paintings that were inspired by the top three football players in Africa.

The clothing line will debut in Paris this week as a travelling exhibition and will move onward through Europe, Australia, and Asia before finally landing in South Africa as the World Cup commences.

In an interview Wiley stated that her work with Puma started when she began to look outside of America and using global fabrics.  She stated in the past that she was already working on her own clothes which is why it was the perfect time when Puma approached her about working on a World Cup football line.

Vanessa Perroncel still wants Wayne

Vanessa Perroncel still wants Wayne Even though Vanessa Perroncel humiliated Wayne Bridge when she had an affair with his teammate John Terry, and potentially breaking up his marriage, Perroncel still declared that she loves Bridge and would love to get back together with him for the sake of their son who is three years old.

Perroncel is said to have told friends that she realizes Bridge is hurting terribly but that she still loves him and she would love to have him back for her and son Jaydon.  She went on to say that she realizes it must have been a terrible week for him as she has been forced to read stories about her sex life that she regards mostly as lies.

Friends of Perroncel stated that she was devastated when the public discovered her affair with Terry.  Since the news came out she has only seen Bridge once briefly when he came to pick up her son.

Perroncel’s close friend Antonia Graham stated that she never stopped loved Bridge but is unsure if he still feels the same way about her.  Her friend also stated that their split during the summer was due to a large number of small things, and that she still wants to spend her life with him despite breaking off the engagement.

Terry also suffered from the fallout with his wife taking a period away from him in Dubai to consider if she will leave him or not, and the loss of his job as England’s captain last Friday.
