Cheryl and Ashley Cole bond over baby news

 

Cheryl Cole and ex-husband Ashley secretly met up in London early in May, reveals Now's insider, and again last Tuesday for a private dinner with friends including Sarah Harding and Kimberley Walsh.
Broody Cheryl, 27, was touched when Ashley, 30, called her in LA to tell her he'd become an uncle - his brother Matty and girlfriend Lisa have had a baby girl Livia.

Cheryl's close to Lisa and sent gifts of clothing, flowers and pampering goodies.
‘Her arrival's brought Cheryl and Ashley closer,' says a pal.
‘They now talk on the phone for up to three hours every day. He's now her most trusted confidante.
'Since she was axed from the US X Factor, he really has become her rock.'
A close friend tells Now: ‘They've agreed to have dinner later this month and he offered to cook.
'Right now he's the only one she's talking to and he's trying everything that he can to coax her back into his arms.'

Come back to the people who love you:Peter Andre to Cheryl Cole

Peter Andre wants Cheryl Cole to know that Britain still adores her, even though the US hasn't welcomed her with open arms.

'You're strong and loved in this country, come back to the people who love you,' says Pete, 38, who reckons Cheryl's X Factor humiliation could have been avoided.
'The bosses would know before she went over to the States if she was right for the job or not,' he reasons, 'to give her false promises is crushing.

 

'I  know how she feels about being let down by things that are promised to you.'

'It's done a lot in this industry. Thankfully I have great management that cover my back at all times.'

 Cheryl, 27, remains in hiding as Nicole Scherzinger takes over her role but Pete believes she should prepare herself for 'bigger and better' things.

'She should sing, do TV, commercials, endorsements and put her fingers in a lot of pies,' he advises.

'I do that and I love my life. With her success rate she'll be huge.'
