Cheryl Cole is planning to move out of her marital home.

The ‘Parachute’ singer wants to quit the house she shared with estranged husband Ashley Cole in Surrey, South East England – who is alleged to have cheated on her with a string of other women – as soon as possible because it holds too many painful memories.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “Cheryl does not want the separation to be a long, drawn-out affair. She wants to find somewhere quickly so she can regain stability and become settled once more.

“If she can’t find somewhere she likes she’ll consider rented accommodation in the short term.”

The news will come as a further blow to soccer star Ashley, 29, who is presently in France receiving treatment for a broken ankle, which has stopped him returning to the UK for crisis talks about his marriage.

Ashley was due to fly home yesterday (09.03.10) but is said to have chosen to stay on at the clinic longer in an attempt to get fit to play for England in the World Cup in South Africa this summer.

A source at the CERS clinic in South West France told the Daily Star newspaper: “He has faced a dreadful dilemma. You could almost say he put England before Cheryl.”

Ricky Gervais plans to leave all his assets to animals.

The comedian insists that people should work hard for their money and he wouldn’t want to make anyone’s life easier by bequeathing them his cash, so would rather donate to charitable organisations which care for living creatures.

He said: “I don’t want to leave my money to people. People should work hard. I’ve worked hard for my money. At the moment I’m sat in the garden where I’ve buried it and I’ve got a gun.”

The ‘Invention of Lying’ star also blasted people who go hunting, admitting he would like to “smack” them in the face.

Asked what he would do if he was Prime Minister of Britain, he told Absolute Radio DJ Christian O’Connell: “I suppose the serious answer would be stopping animal cruelty. Particularly those inbred people who still go hunting when they are not meant to, I’d like to smack them in the mouth.”

Ricky had called the radio station in a bid to win £20,000 for his favourite animal charities as part of their ‘Who’s Calling Christian’ contest.

He joked: “I’ve saved the animals and got a free plug.”

The competition encourages listeners to get a celebrity to ring in for the chance to win £10,000 for themselves and the star’s favourite charity.

If the winning star rings in of their own accord, they get the whole £20,000 to be donated to a charity of their choice.

Nicole Richie is ready to start finalising plans for her wedding

The TV star-and-fashion designer – who is engaged to Joel Madden – is free of work commitments and is focused on getting everything in place for her big day.

Nicole – who recently completed a tour of Europe to promote her new fashion range Winter Kate and her House of Harlow jewellery collection – told US talk show host Ellen DeGeneres: “I’ve been on the road. I just got home, and so it’s really going to be now that’s the time for me to sit down and think about what I want.”

Although the 28-year-old beauty is ready to start organising her nuptials she and Joel – who raise two children together, daughter Harlow, two, and six-month-old son Sparrow – are yet to pick a date.

When asked by Ellen if she had a day in mind, she replied: “Not yet, but soon.”

Earlier this week, Nicole claimed Joel has no say in their forthcoming nuptials.

The Good Charlotte rocker admitted Nicole is the one in charge of the plans, saying: “It’s the same thing as our engagement, we’re kind of doing it at our own pace. We have no idea right now.”

Nicole – who revealed their engagement last month – then quipped: “Like he has any say.”

Sharon Osbourne uses food to spice up her sex life.

The TV star – who has three children with her husband Ozzy Osbourne – admits she and the Black Sabbath rocker are always looking for new ways to keep the spark alive in the bedroom.

She said: “How do we spice it up in the bedroom? Lots of sex toys. Spray cream around the b******s. Chocolate sauce on the k**b. Lick, lick, lick.”

Sharon, 57, who has been married to 61-year-old Ozzy for 27 years, has also given her tips for a long, happy relationship, admitting patience is the key.

She advised: “You have to love the person, respect them and be very tolerant.”

Although Sharon and Ozzy are content in their relationship, she admits they went through a crisis when their kids Aimee, 26, Kelly, 25, and 24-year-old Jack, moved out of their Los Angeles home.

She told more! magazine: “It was terrible. When they moved out me and Ozzy went through a really bad time, but we’re alright now. We’re on to the next stage of our lives.”

Sharon Osbourne wants to sell her breast implants on eBay.

The TV star – who is married to rocker Ozzy Osbourne – doesn’t like the look of her breasts following her last boob-boosting operation and is considering going under the knife again to have her chest changed.

She said: “I wish I’d never had my breasts done the last time. They’ve put these bloody great bags in that are too f***ing round – it’s like a waterbed on your chest.

“I hate my t*ts. I want to have the bags taken out and then I’ll put them up on eBay!”

The 57-year-old star – who has famously spent over £300,000 on cosmetic surgery – doesn’t want to undergo any more procedures in the near future, but believes she will eventually get more work done.

She added to Britain’s new! magazine: “Would I have more surgery? Not right now. Maybe when I get to my 60s, I don’t want to have a flopping neck.”

Although Sharon wants her implants removed, daughter Kelly recently revealed she would be prepared to have a boob job when she gets older.

The 25-year-old presenter said: “When my boobs get saggy I will have them lifted. I don’t want my nipples facing the floor.

“Plastic surgery works for someone like my mum. It changed her life and gave her that last bit of confidence she needed.”

The presenter – who got engaged to the model in March 2009 – stopped drinking altogether once she met Luke and believes he has made her a “better person”.

She said: “He’s turned me into a better person. He really has. I didn’t care before I met Luke. I was out every night, drunk. I didn’t have somebody to be a better person for and then that all changed when I met Luke.”

The 25-year-old star is now completely teetotal because she doesn’t trust how she might behave after she’s had a few drinks.

She explained to more! magazine: “I don’t drink at all. Even a glass of wine at dinner would probably mean me going home, getting s**t-faced and then being on drugs and doing something stupid that I have to spend the next three months apologising for.

“I don’t like drinking that much as I hate throwing up and the taste of alcohol. I’d look at somebody who has a half-empty glass in front of them and think, ‘How can they leave that?’ whereas mine, it’s like ‘Glug’ and it’s gone. ‘Can I have another one? I’ll be alright.’ ”

Kelly is so focused on staying sober she does her best to stop herself from being around alcohol as she doesn’t want to be tempted.

She explained: “In the culture in England it’s hard to explain to people you don’t want to drink, as they look at you like you’re f***ing crazy. There have been times the hotel I’m staying in has sent up three bottles of champagne and I send them back. What am I going to do with it staring at me in a bucket? I don’t want it.”

Kelly has been in rehab three times, most recently to seek help for a dependency on prescription drugs.

Pals of the ‘Parachutes’ singer – who recently split from her soccer star husband Ashley Cole amid claims he had cheated on her with several women – are determined to help raise her spirits by not letting her stay single for long.

Choreographer Brian Friedman – who works with the Girls Aloud beauty on UK TV talent show ‘The X Factor’ – told the News of the World newspaper: “She deserves a great guy. Hopefully she’ll find him. I don’t know Ashley well. I only see him every once in a while at the show, but Cheryl’s my friend. So I have her back.

“When news came out about me moving her to LA, I’ve been getting non-stop contact from top guys in this city asking me to set them up with Cheryl.

“When – or actually if – she is ever ready to date someone, of course I will hook her up.”

It has also been claimed that dancer Derek Hough – who was pictured leaving the star’s hotel in the early hours of the morning when she fled to the US following her marriage split – is determined to win over Cheryl.

A source said: “He’s not used to women saying no to him and plans to use all his charms to win her round.”

Cheryl is said to be seriously considering a move to Los Angeles, where she can throw herself into work in order to get over her heartbreak.

Her friend Soulshock – real name Carsen Schack – revealed they chatted about the move when she appeared on Denmark’s version of TV talent show ‘The X Factor’, on Friday (05.03.10).

Soulshock – who is a judge on the programme – told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “I had a good chat to Cheryl for about an hour before the show.

“She didn’t want to talk about Ashley. She was speaking about LA and how she really wanted to get back there and start working on new songs.

“Cheryl is using her work as a real focus at the moment. She’s a very professional artist and there is nothing that will get in her way.”

The 28-year-old actress – who reconciled her romance with actor Jude Law at the end of last year while they were both staring in theatre productions on New York’s Broadway – has reportedly agreed to travel back to the US to stay with the ‘Alfie’ star while he works on his new movie ‘Contagion’.

A source told the Mail on Sunday newspaper: “Sienna is determined to make it work with Jude this time.

“She doesn’t want to let him out of her sight. She loves him and wants them to stay together, so she is prepared to move wherever he is.”

It was recently claimed that Jude – who saw his engagement to Sienna end in 2005 when he slept with his children’s nanny – has asked the actress to move into his London home.

While the Factory Girl’ star agreed, cautious Sienna has insisted on keeping her own house in case things go wrong again.

A source said: “Jude has promised there will be no affairs and Sienna demands total honesty.

“If either one is unhappy she has told him they must end it.”

Jude and Sienna spent the festive period on the Caribbean island of Barbados together with his three children, Rafferty, Iris and Rudy, from his marriage to Sadie Frost.

Last year, Jude became a father for the fourth time after American model Samantha Burke fell pregnant following a brief relationship.

The 51-year-old film director – who has a six-year-old son Billy and two-year-old daughter Nell with partner Helena Bonham Carter – claims to have had an experience with the supernatural, which he insists is not uncommon.

He said: “I’ve seen things and felt things. I think most people do. I think it’s just how much you suppress it. I don’t go out and say, ‘Oh, my god, I was abducted by a UFO,’ or, ‘I’ve seen these ghosts.’

“You feel an energy.”

The ‘Alice in Wonderland’ filmmaker also claims to find cemeteries “positive” places.

He added to Interview magazine: “Most people say about graveyards, ‘Oh, it’s just a bunch of dead people; it’s creepy.’ But for me, there’s an energy to it that is not creepy or dark. It has a positive sense to it.”

However, the eccentric filmmaker doesn’t believe anyone can force a spirit to reveal themselves.

He said: “I think anytime you try, it ain’t gonna happen. It always seems to occur when you’re sort of open but not thinking about it. I’ve never held a seance.”

The reality TV star – who has three grown-up children, Aimee, Kelly and Jack with the rocker – believes looking after him is the most challenging thing she has ever had to do and believes wives should get paid for what they do for their husbands.

She explained: “Running him is the hardest job of all. A woman should be paid for that, but of course we’re not, and so we have to work. And I have to work in order to be independent. I would hate to be in a position where I have to say to Ozzy, ‘I need to get my hair done, can you give me some money?’ ”

Although they have had a tempestuous relationship, the couple have been married for 27 years.

Sharon has no idea how their romance has been so long-lasting but believes it they “just work”.

She said: “When we got married, our friends would take bets on how long it would last. I can’t blame them.

“It just works. We fight with each other. It’s not been easy but it’s never meant to be easy.”
