Cheryl Cole is said to be devastated as new accusations surrounding her footballer husband Ashley’s text photos have surfaced.
The couple had already spent most of the past fortnight apart amid revelations that pictures of the Chelsea star naked had been sent to a blonde model's mobile phone.
According to the Daily Mail, Cole, 29, had insisted that there was an innocent explanation for this because he had passed the phone on to an acquaintance before the photos were sent to mother-of-two Sonia Wild.
But yesterday it was claimed that another blonde, an unidentified secretary, had received similar images and more than 300 text messages from the same phone nine months earlier.
This will come as a major blow to 26-year-old Cheryl, who is performing tonight at the Brit Awards.
Reports say observers at rehearsals say she looks gaunt, physically crumpled and miserable.
But she is said to be determined to go ahead with the show despite the latest blow to her marriage.
Cole is alleged to have sent the texts and pictures to the blonde secretary over a two-month period while his wife was working as a judge on the 'X Factor' in October 2008.
One of the pictures printed by the Sun was said to show Cole stripped to his underpants and reportedly accompanied messages such as "I beg u to keep this between us x." and "we both have things to lose i do trust you alot."
