To wonder how come we don't hear about Cheryl Cole anymore?

I randomly thought of her this morning and realised she hasn't been spoken about or even being relevant for ages really. For years when she was in Girls Allowed and on the X Factor she was one of the most famous women in England at the height of her popularity, constantly photographed and in the news and magazines every single day, had a relationship with and then a break up with Ashley Cole, then had a baby from One Direction and then disappeared from the limelight and now you never hear about her these days, and she has been not reported on for some years now. I do personally think "good for her" as she spoke out a few times about the stress of being constantly photographed and how it was taking a toll on her mental health, and this was before mental health was even being touted as a thing that celebrities tend to turn to these days to look good. Anyone else wondering what she's been up to!?

She’s probably not splashed in all the news 24/7 because she no longer employs a top flight PR agency to keep her in the news 24/7 through pap shots, product placement and ‘stories’.

Looks like she is back with a new face!

As an aside, I noticed the ghost story play is touring and wondered if it was worth going to see.

It's fantastic!

Can I just point out that CC often posts on Mumsnet (no, it's not me) so can we bear that in mind.

I am going to see that play on tour. I was hoping it might be Jamie Winstone when I see it as I am a huge fan. Am sure whoever it is will be a good night though.

I read she had turned 40 the other day.
Also wonder about Roxanne Pallett too....

Well I can't really say without outing her can I!!! Grin

From what has come out from interviews with her ex she really struggled with the limelight and scrutiny that comes with celebrity. Lots of self doubt and self analysis. Also women are not allowed to age. Do I think she probably pick and chooses her jobs and is enjoying raising her child. Good for her.
