Cheryl has a pregnant tum...

So we can now all stop being inundated with articles about it? At some point she'll appear with a baby and it's bound to be gorgeous and that'll be that, like a million other women. She doesn't need to release a statement. Her tummy said it all

I'm really happy for her. Babies are lovely.

badtasteflump · 30/11/2016 11:28

Those pics are what I look like after a night out at an eat-all-you-can curry Grin

Couldn't really care less if she's PG or not, but once again I am Confused about the speed in which 'celebs' live their lives. She's been in an out of relationships/marriages/and now a pregnancy in the time it takes me to choose a new sofa.

AwaywiththePixies27 · 30/11/2016 11:28

There was a lady at my DCs school who was pg with twins who managed to keep it hidden until the birth. She just kept telling people she'd put weight on!

I think they've probably kept it secret/quite because of how strange/jealous/angry the fans can get. Not all but some. For example, there's a huge conspiracy theory on Cumberbatch that his wife was never really pregnant. All because they chose to keep him covered from the paps at his christening Confused

She's not my favourite person but I wish them well all the same.

SILfoundmyusername · 30/11/2016 11:31

I don't get the anguish that she hadn't confirmed her pregnancy to the world, why should she have to? I quite like she hadn't announced it officially

CocktailQueen · 30/11/2016 11:31

No way! She's done it for publicity.

MsGameandWatch · 30/11/2016 11:34

It's a close call but the only persons pregnancy I care about even less than Cheryl's is Emily the wife of Peter Andre.

I am regularly mystified by the enduring interest in and popularity of these two talentless "celebrities".

SnookerLover · 30/11/2016 11:40

I have a pregnant tum too, far too much cake is the reason :)

TheCompanyOfCats · 30/11/2016 11:45

I don't know why I'm fascinated but I definitely am.

Cocolepew · 30/11/2016 11:55

A mistake is forgetting to put the bins out. Punching soneone is assault.

AwaywiththePixies27 · 30/11/2016 12:06

Cocktail yes I agree she's probably doing it for publicity too! Grin she knows what she's doing. Not sure how you can hide that though. I always ballooned when I got pg with both DCs.

AwaywiththePixies27 · 30/11/2016 12:07

Snooker I'm with you. Mine is too much chocolate food too. Wink

MommaGee · 30/11/2016 12:08

It is assault but it was also 13 years ago. She's had tine to mature and grow. As we all do between those ages. It's not OK what she did but to cite it as proof she'll be a crap mom is over stretching.

1D fans are lunatics. They'll get so much hate once it's confirmed, if they get married etc.

Has she ever apologised for the incident? I genuinely don't know and I only care because I think if you assault someone you should apologise regardless of who you are.

MommaGee · 30/11/2016 12:12

Apologise to who tho? I agree if you mean her although not everyone would want to face their aggressor.

So it's Chezza's turn to have the bairn in the Chim relationship? I was blissfully unaware of this as i never expose myself to Mail/Sun/Express unless by accident.

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 30/11/2016 12:16

Apologise to the person she hit of course.

She has a publicly platform, it wouldn't be hard and many people who do this stuff in similar positions also apologise for "letting down the fans". I'm not sure the last bit is necessary but she should apologise for her behaviour.

Nineloves1 · 30/11/2016 12:17

Brillohair Grin. I like your taste in men.

SuperFlyHigh · 30/11/2016 12:27

To be quite honest with you she has never apologised or explained herself over the toilet incident which though 13 years ago and when she was "newly famous" didn't cover her in glory.

I think I went in the bar where she had the "incident" but before she had the incident but didn't recognise the toilet assistant. Anyway I'm disgusted that she has quite easily glided over this incident and hasn't apologised. She shows her jealousy in other ways too, she was quite unpleasant about the singer on X Factor Cher Lloyd who had the audacity to look like her... And now (I googled last year out of interest) Cher is doing well in USA apparently...

When I was younger I frequented lots of clubs/bars with toilet assistants but neither me nor my friends would have been unkind, rude etc to them... We, as most normal people, treated them as people, employees of the club, and could see it wasn't the nicest job in the world but we interacted with them, as people. In some clubs they actually became "friends". Why should Chezza get away with racially abusing and punching one?!

I've done many things in my time but not punched or racially abused an innocent bystander over a seemingly trivial incident.

I also believe her subsequent relationship with Ashley Cole was probably first touted as a PR stunt by her PR advisors and then turned into a relationship and marriage. Damage limitation to her racist reputation by dating and marrying a black man... I'm not the only person to think this either, I've got a black friends (yeah go me!) and mixed race friends who think along the same lines...

Moving no she has never apologised as far as I recall for the racist incident, got off that part I think... And treated the assault as just that and normal in her world.

MommaGee · 30/11/2016 12:41

superfly I've got a black friends (yeah go me!)

Really????

Is there ANYTHING in the thread that warrants that kind of sarcasm?

No one is justifying her past simply saying its not a predictor of the future. And she was punished by the Courts. You think it was too lenient I suggest you petition them for harsher punishment

I am quite mystified about the interest in her too. All v strange.

pringlecat · 30/11/2016 13:16

Given how thin she is, she was never going to get away with 'just having put a bit of weight on.' On a frame like that, a pregnant belly is unmistakeable.

Bit odd not to talk about it given her position in the public eye, but all the best to her in becoming a mum. Smile

ChickenVindaloo2 · 30/11/2016 13:44

A jury of her peers found her not guilty of racism.

Greengoddess12 · 30/11/2016 13:59

Good grief I belive she likes the publicity but to say she married cole to seem nor racist is stretching it a tad.

She was found not guilty of racism and got done for assault! Not her finest hour but hardly a hanging offence.

Blimey some really daft posts. She is allowed to mature and move on.

Mind you couldn't give a shiny shite if she's uoduffed or not.

Greengoddess12 · 30/11/2016 14:01

And really 'I have black and mixed rave friends?' Who doesn't but to most of us they are just friends. Hmm

Greengoddess12 · 30/11/2016 14:01

Race not rave Smile
