Cheryl Cole

(BANG) -

Cheryl Cole's family will never forgive her estranged husband Ashley Cole for allegedly cheating on her.

The 'Parachute' singer - who announced her separation from the soccer player last month - was left devastated by claims he had slept with a string of women behind her back and her brother is furious at the way "arrogant" Ashley treated his younger sister. Andrew Tweedy said: "My heart bleeds for Cheryl, I know what she's going through. This has really hurt her. She has a heart of gold and does not deserve it.

"Ashley Cole is arrogant and I will never forgive him for what he has done to my little sister."

Andrew, 29, claims Cheryl is even more upset because she had been planning to put her career on hold and have children with Ashley.

He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "She saw him as the father to their kids. That's why she married him and that's why he has left her heartbroken.

"Having kids with him, becoming a mother, that's all Cheryl has ever really wanted. She comes from a big family, we are all still close and the maternal instinct is really strong. The public humiliation makes it 10 times worse, but for her not being able to start a family is the hardest part."

Despite claims Cheryl, 26, was set to give Ashley another chance, Andrew insists they will divorce.

He said: "As far as I'm aware they are talking about the practicalities of divorce. There is no way back for Ashley."

Meanwhile, Ashley is said to be chain-smoking as he copes with the stress over the public breakdown of his marriage.

He is currently receiving treatment in a private clinic in France for a broken ankle and while smoking is banned, the 29-year-old sportsman looked to be holding a cigarette while out on his balcony.

Daniel Radcliffe

(BANG) -

Daniel Radcliffe was hospitalised with food poisoning last week.

The 'Harry Potter' star contracted a bug while in the US and was forced to spend two days in a New York medical facility being treated for dehydration.

The 20-year-old star caught a flight home to the UK on Saturday (06.03.10), and reportedly filled in fellow passengers with the details about his embarrassing stomach upset.

A passenger on the same plane told The Sun newspaper: "He looked as white as a sheet. He said he felt like he was going to die and had spent most of his time on the toilet."

The actor had been in the country to support the Trevor Project, a non-profit US suicide prevention charity which works with young gay and transgender people.

Daniel had previously spoken about why he'd lent his face to the project, which runs a 24 hour helpline.

He said: "I grew up knowing a lot of gay men and it was never something that I even thought twice about - that some men were gay and some weren't. And then I went to school and for the first time and I came across homophobia. I had never encountered it before. It shocked me.

"I think it's important for somebody from a big, commercial movie series like 'Harry Potter' and particularly because I am not gay or bisexual or transgendered. The fact that I am straight makes not a difference, but it shows that straight people are incredibly interested and care a lot about this as well."

Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper

(BANG) -

Amanda Seyfried admits the start of her relationship with Dominic Cooper was "messy".

The 'Jennifer's Body' actress met the British actor on the set of 'Mamma Mia!' in 2007 and while she knew there was a huge attraction between the pair she wasn't sure what would happen because he already had a long-term girlfriend, Joanna Carolan.

She said: "I fell for Dominic's sense of humour. He's just really, really funny and we fooled around so much during the rehearsals for 'Mamma Mia!' But it was messy because there was some overlap with his girlfriend who he'd been with for 12 years. I didn't know how he was going to deal with that, so we went our separate ways and I began dating someone else."

However, Dominic had decided to end his relationship and flew over to the US to win Amanda back.

She said: "Dominic flew over to Charleston, where I was filming 'Dear John', and he made sure I never saw that guy again."

Despite being extremely happy with Dominic, Amanda says she has no plans to marry him.

She told Britain's Glamour magazine: "As silly as it sounds, I've learned that you can't have expectations about a relationship. It's healthier that way. The things I worry about are the health of my family, where my career's going and my dog, Finn – but not relationship."

Robert Pattinson

(BANG) -

Robert Pattinson is terrified of breaking down in interviews.

The 'Twilight' heartthrob gets stricken by nerves whenever he has to speak about himself and wishes he could stay out of the spotlight when he isn't making movies.

He said: 'During interviews I'm incredibly nervous. I don't want there to be a silence, because I'll start crying out of nervousness. I just say the first thing that comes into my head. But the only way to establish any kind of mystique is to completely shut up and never talk to anyone. Unfortunately, I have to. It's in my contract.'

The 23-year-old star - who is dating his 'Twilight' co-star Kristen Stewart - hates watching himself on screen because he always feels like a "fraud" who is ill at ease with his emotions.

He explained to Live magazine: "I took my mother to the 'Twilight' premiere and squirmed through the first ten minutes. But in the end I couldn't bear it, so I had to leave and went out and sat in the car.

"I hate watching myself on screen, because I'm constantly worried that I'll look like a fraud. Even before I started acting, I was constantly thinking I was faking my emotions. I remember when I was a teenager thinking my girlfriend was cheating on me, and going around riling myself up, pretending to cry. It was totally illegitimate - I actually didn't feel anything."

Cheryl Cole

(BANG) -

Cheryl Cole's friends want to find her an American boyfriend.

Pals of the 'Parachutes' singer - who recently split from her soccer star husband Ashley Cole amid claims he had cheated on her with several women - are determined to help raise her spirits by not letting her stay single for long.

Choreographer Brian Friedman - who works with the Girls Aloud beauty on UK TV talent show 'The X Factor' - told the News of the World newspaper: "She deserves a great guy. Hopefully she'll find him. I don't know Ashley well. I only see him every once in a while at the show, but Cheryl's my friend. So I have her back.

"When news came out about me moving her to LA, I've been getting non-stop contact from top guys in this city asking me to set them up with Cheryl.

"When - or actually if - she is ever ready to date someone, of course I will hook her up."

It has also been claimed that dancer Derek Hough - who was pictured leaving the star's hotel in the early hours of the morning when she fled to the US following her marriage split - is determined to win over Cheryl.

A source said: "He's not used to women saying no to him and plans to use all his charms to win her round."

Cheryl is said to be seriously considering a move to Los Angeles, where she can throw herself into work in order to get over her heartbreak.

Her friend Soulshock - real name Carsten Schack - revealed they chatted about the move when she appeared on Denmark's version of TV talent show 'The X Factor', on Friday (05.03.10).

Soulshock - who is a judge on the programme - told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "I had a good chat to Cheryl for about an hour before the show.

"She didn't want to talk about Ashley. She was speaking about LA and how she really wanted to get back there and start working on new songs.

"Cheryl is using her work as a real focus at the moment. She's a very professional artist and there is nothing that will get in her way."
