'I won't pick up the pieces again': Cheryl Cole slammed by friend Derek Hough over reunion with ex-husband Ashley

By Daily Mail Reporter


Breaking the news: Cheryl met up with friend Derek Hough for dinner in Los Angeles where she reportedly told him she is reconciling with ex-husband Ashley


He was her 'rock' and her shoulder to cry on when her marriage fell apart.

But Derek Hough has told Cheryl Cole that if she reconciles with ex-husband Ashley then he will not be there to pick up the pieces again.

According to reports, the dancer, who was also by the pop star's side when she was gravely ill with malaria, warned her not to go back to the Chelsea footballer because she will end up heartbroken.


Taking Girls Aloud band mate and friend Kimberley Walsh, 29, along for moral support, Cheryl, 28, met Derek, 26, for dinner in Los Angeles on Friday night, and broke the news that she was reconciling with Ashley, according to the Sunday Mirror.

But Derek was said to be furious at the news and warned her that she would end up heartbroken again - but he would not be there for her again.

A friend told the paper: 'He has accepted their relationship is over. But he still cares for her as a friend and is convinced Cheryl getting back with Ashley is going to end one way... with Cheryl in tears and heartbroken.'

Derek is believed to have told Cheryl that she deserves better and was gobsmacked that she would want to go back to the man that she has spent the last year getting over.

The friend added: 'He told her, "a cheat will never change and whatever you think, he will betray you. If he breaks your heart again, I will not be your shoulder to cry on".'

It is the first time that Derek and Cheryl have met up since her humiliating sacking from the X Factor USA judging panel two months ago.

Wearing a cream leather jacket and emerald-green jeans, and sporting a new bobbed hairstyle, Cheryl looked happier and healthier than she has in months.

She was laughing as she arrived at the Sushi Roku restaurant in Hollywood at around 10pm.

Derek, who dated Cheryl for over a year, arrived 10 minutes later and the group spent more than an hour at a corner table talking intimately.

But Derek left looking very upset about 15 minutes later, according to onlookers.

Derek, a dancer on American TV series Dancing With The Stars, the US version of Strictly Come Dancing, met Cheryl in 2009 when he was hired to perform in the video for her single Parachutes.

At the time, she was still married to Ashley but the couple split after he was alleged to have cheated on her with five different women.
