Posted January 11, 200718 yr CHERYL COLE has admitted her mum Joan lives in the marital home with her and Chelsea star ASHLEY. How embarrassing. And how weird. They are a young couple, why would they want their mother or mother-in-law co-habiting? The GIRLS ALOUD singer let slip the astonishing revelation in a chat about her hubby. She was asked if he was any use around the house. Cheryl answered: “No. He doesn’t do a thing. Maybe he’ll make me the odd cup of tea, but that’s it. “Luckily my mum lives with us and she’ll do lots of stuff.†A jaw-dropping statement in my book. And the poor mum. She sounds like a live-in maid.
