- Story Text: British singer Cheryl Cole has been granted divorce from her soccer star husband Ashley Cole on Friday (September 3) at the High Court's family division in London. Media reports said she had cited the "unreasonable behavior of her husband, after a string of tabloid allegations of his infidelity.
In early 2008, first claims were made, that Ashley Cole had been unfaithful.
26-year-old Cheryl rose to fame through the "Girls Aloud" band and as a judge on "The X Factor" talent show.
The couple met in 2004 when they both had homes in the same London apartment block and were engaged in 2005.
Since their marriage in 2006, the couple have lived in the full glare of the media spotlight, with paparazzi following their every move. They have been compared to the Beckhams.
Ashley Cole, 29, began his career as a defender with Arsenal before moving to London rivals Chelsea in 2006. He has played more than 70 games for his country.
The couple did not attend the hearing. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
