Cheryl: Do NOT call me Mrs Cole

The singer will simply be known as Cheryl on all future material.

Binning her marital surname is the biggest confirmation yet that her relationship with ex Ashley is officially dead.

A source said: Cheryl is beginning a new chapter in her life so she doesnt want to be associated with negative stuff from the past.

Shes not removing Cole legally, its just a career statement. Shes in a really good place at the moment and wants to take life by the balls. She cant wait to start performing live again and her new stage name has given her comeback an extra bit of spice.

Split ... Cheryl with her ex-husband Ashley before they separated

Cheryl insisted on keeping her marital surname shortly after separating from Chelsea and England star Ashley last year.

But as shes firmly the worlds most recognisable Cheryl, she can get away with being known by the one name. Cheryl Baker will be crying into her cornflakes.

The Girls Aloud singers new-found lust for life was reflected in these floral beauties that she wore to the birthday party of bandmate Kimberley Walshs boyfriend Justin Scott on Friday at Vanilla in central London.

Justin may have insisted on a dodgy trousers theme as Nicola Roberst turned up in a pair of questionable denims.

The girls had earlier met up with bandmates Sarah Harding and Nadine Coyle to discuss a Girls Aloud comeback tour.

Given Sarahs recovery from rehab, its understandable why she didnt attend Justins bash.

But it appears that poor old Nadine had been left in her hotel room, wondering if she flopped at the long-awaited reunion.

Pele would know all about that.
