It has been quite a year for Cheryl Cole – following her split from husband Ashley, Cheryl has embarked on a gruelling schedule as she released three hit singles, toured Europe, endorsed L’Oreal and even found the time to be wooed by dancer Derek Hough and Black Eyed Pea, Will.I.Am. Now add to that feared health complications, and it seems that now more than ever Cheryl needs to take some time off!
It was reported this weekend that Cheryl collapsed at a photoshoot, having appeared looking pale and gaunt. She was later diagnosed with gastroenteritis and was told to rest at home for at least a week before slowly returning to work. She is also alleged to have told her X Factor bosses that she wouldn’t be able to attend the auditions ‘until further notice’.
A source told The Sun: ‘She should never have gone to the studio. She insisted she was fine even though she clearly wasn’t. Her skin was pale and her lips had no colour. She’s run down and tired. That’s why she ended up with the stomach virus.’
Much of Cheryl’s hectic work commitments have been attributed to her wanting to keep busy following her separation from footballer Ashley Cole earlier this year, and there has been plenty of press scrutiny over her weight and appearance ever since.
Either way, we think it’s time Cheryl puts her feet back and gets back to fine form – our X Factor needs her!
