The singer has told friends that she is "seriously considering" ending her 18-month marriage to footballer Ashley, who plays for Chelsea.
Ashley has been accused of sleeping with a woman named Aimee Walton after meeting her at a club on December 8. Walton has said that she feels "really guilty" and regrets spending the night with Cole.
Yesterday, Cheryl told Ashley that she wanted him to leave their home in Oxshott, Surrey, while she considers the future of their relationship.
"Cheryl needs to make some difficult decisions about her future," a friend told The Mirror. "She's got some serious thinking to do. She has always been very outspoken on the subject of infidelity.
"Now she has to decide whether she wants to stay with Ashley or end their marriage. She has been through a lot of bad relationships in the past where the men have treated her badly. She had no idea this news was about to break and she is utterly devastated."
