To think that Cheryl F-V's 'romance' with Liam Payne is a publicity stunt

I mean who really gives a crap who she's shagging but oh no, she has to offer hints via social media and then the big unveiling of this latest celebrity 'couple', photos of them hand-in-hand on a dinner date [vom]

And just in case any of the plebs don't quite get that this is 'true love', she wears a big fuck off gold necklace spelling it out Hmm

Is Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, or whatever the fuck her surname is this week, a big tedious, attention seeking bore or AIBU?

If I could make a few million by having a fake relationship, then I totally would!

Bogeyface · 11/03/2016 23:36

I would rather she did this now than have a brood of kids being dragged from marriage to marriage (yes KP, I am looking at you).

SHe is free to do what she wants with her life, and if she need validation so badly that she has to post every last date on twitter then I think she is to be pitied.

I agree with FourEyes

It's completely easy to avoid. In fact I had no idea about this latest romance until it was mentioned in a thread on Mumsnet yesterday.

Yes, I'd seen some headlines on various news sites, but being totally uninterested I didn't click on the stories to read them.

If it is a publicity stunt then it's obviously a very successful one, to have got some people so worked up about something that doesn't affect their lives in any way whatsoever.

Chim indeed Grin Her last marriage was apparently to cover that up. And this latest stunt is so pathetic, it actually angers me that they think we all fall for it.

WorraLiberty · 11/03/2016 23:39

On a slightly different note

My DH was utterly convinced that she's dating Craig David??? Confused

The twat is even more clueless than I am about sleb relationships Grin

BirthdayBetty · 11/03/2016 23:42

Craig David Grin pmsl

Samcro · 11/03/2016 23:43

she is a waste of space
(him.....no idea)
but why can't a 30 something have fun with a 20 something bloke??

WhereTheFuckIsMyFuckingCoat · 11/03/2016 23:45

Am I totally clueless or is it being insinuated that C F-V is a lesbian?

Bogeyface · 11/03/2016 23:46

Chim?

ijustwannadance · 11/03/2016 23:47

I thought Liam was gay. Confused

AyeAmarok · 11/03/2016 23:51

I hope it's a publicity stunt, because I find it a bit disturbing for some reason.

Samcro · 11/03/2016 23:54

why??

MistressDeeCee · 11/03/2016 23:56

I thought Cheryl FV was married

Jeremy and Stephanie - I don't even know who they are. I think Im glad

Must be tiresome for her to live life as one long publicity stunt tho. She's likely encouraged in that, but it won't be nice when the limelight fades away

Notimefortossers · 11/03/2016 23:59

Didn't she JUST get married?

XiCi · 12/03/2016 00:00

I know what you mean ayeamorak.
I think it's because they keep reporting that they first met when Liam was 14. I know it's just all for publicity but it makes it seem a bit icky.

Notimefortossers · 12/03/2016 00:01

Agree with Worra. This is the first I'd heard of it

NanaNina · 12/03/2016 00:04

I like Cheryl. Ok she changes men and stuff but somehow I think she's genuine. She never hides the fact that she lived in a council house in. a rough part of Newcastle. I think she looked horrendously thin on x factor this year.

LovePGtipsMonkey · 12/03/2016 00:05

NoTime, she is separated now after 2-yr marriage due to 'husband's jealousy/controlling'.

LovePGtipsMonkey · 12/03/2016 00:08

NaNa, I do prefer her too to other clebs with no real talent - at least she is quite direct as you say, and stylish/elegant in her own way and isn't loud or nasty.

LovePGtipsMonkey · 12/03/2016 00:09

I meant no real musical talent, she is a talented dancer.

Crispbutty · 12/03/2016 00:10

Whats chim??

RubyFlint · 12/03/2016 00:11

Just googled it. Chim = Cheryl and Kimberley. really? Is this just wishful thinking?

AyeAmarok · 12/03/2016 00:11

Me Samcro?

The age gap, the fact that he was a child when they met. And the only picture (selfie) I've seen of them both he looked like a little boy cuddling his mum.

Crispbutty · 12/03/2016 00:13

Nothing was going on with them when he was 14, or even 18. They are both adults now and I would say she is the happiest and healthiest she has looked for ages. If it isn't a publicity stunt then good look to them.

Crispbutty · 12/03/2016 00:15

Or even good luck!!
