Cheryl and Ashley 'love letters stolen'

Love letters between Cheryl and Ashley Cole have been stolen, it has been revealed.

Burglars broke into Ashley's Surrey flat this week while he was away with the England squad, and stole love notes, poems and two packets of letters from Cheryl, reports the Daily Star.

The former couple, who finalised their divorce last week, are now said to be worried that the thieves will expose intimate marriage details contained in the letters.

A source said: "Cheryl’s written lots of stuff to Ashley over time while she was touring with Girls Aloud and on the other side of the world with work commitments.

"Their paths didn’t cross as much as they would have liked so they tried their best to be romantic in other ways. Notes, little poems and letters were a big form of Cheryl’s communication and this could all be published soon."

They added: "There are lots of secrets that no-one knows a thing about."

It is believed that the thieves also stole jewellery, cash and the keys to Ashley's sports car.

Cole jealous of Cheryl

Ashley Cole is said to be "fuming" about wife Cheryl's tour with will.i.am.

According to The People, the footballer is jealous that the 'Fight For This Love' singer will be on tour with the Black Eyed Peas for a month.

A source claimed: "Ashley is pretty hopeful that he and Cheryl will get their marriage back on track but he is really, really jealous that Will will be spending so much time with his wife this month.

"He knows that Will fancies Cheryl and it irritates him a lot, and the worst thing for him is that there is absolutely nothing he can do about it because they are working together."

Will.i.am has previously shown a romantic interest in the Girls Aloud star.

Ashley wants to win back wife

Soccer player Ashley Cole is trying to win back his estranged wife and singer Cheryl Cole with a number of gifts including a pair of leather studded collars for their dogs.

"Both Cheryl and Ashley love their Chihuahuas so the leather collars were a bit of a light-hearted, jokey present. Ashley is willing to do anything to win back Cheryl. He's had a long, hard think and is a changed man," contactmusic.com quoted a source as saying.

The couple, who split in February, have reportedly been in contact by phone recently but have only had one face-to-face meeting so far.
