Fans of Cheryl Cole have been making death threats to the single mother who claims that she slept with the singer's husband Ashley.

Girls Aloud star Cheryl has been left heartbroken by allegations that Ashley cheated on her with 22-year-old Aimee Walton.

Aimee has since been receiving hate calls from furious fans of the girl group who have managed to get hold of her number.

"She has been horrified by the backlash," a friend told the Daily Star. "Some of the threats have been pretty graphic - it's definitely left her shaken."

Cole has jetted off for a holiday in Thailand, where she will consider the future of her relationship with Ashley.
