Cheryl Cole eloped with a French dude she met in May of this year: terrible idea?

wenn21475200

Most of you probably won’t care, but my God… Cheryl Cole just makes terrible life decisions. Cheryl – a British pop star and on-again judge on The X-Factor (UK) – has the worst taste in men. She kept going back to Ashley Cole, even though he was flagrantly cheating on her. They finally ended it for good at some point. Then Cheryl tried to date a few gay guys I think, and now she’s up and married a man she literally met for the first time in MAY. It wasn’t even a three-month courtship before they ran off and eloped in Mustique. We don’t have any photos of the new husband, but you can see some here (he looks like a French version of Matthew Goode).

Cheryl Cole has married her French boyfriend in secret after a three-month romance. The X Factor judge posted her news online to ‘stop the speculation’ over the relationship. The message was posted with a picture of a large platinum princess-cut diamond engagement ring and a diamond encrusted wedding band.

The singer and Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini, 33, reportedly tied the knot on a beach in Mustique in front of just four witnesses. The X Factor judge’s mother Joan and PA Lily England were two of the guests as she wed on the white sands of Macaroni Beach.

Cheryl, 31, said: ‘I usually do not discuss my personal life but to stop the speculation I want to share my happy news. Jean-Bernard and I married on 7/7/14. We are very happy and excited to move forward with our lives together.’

Cheryl and Jean-Bernard met at the Cannes Film Festival in May and close friends said she is smitten with the luxury restaurant entrepreneur. Despite being together for just three months, she had no hesitation about marrying him, according to The Sun. The pair reportedly moved into her Hertfordshire home together last month. Jean-Bernard has met Miss Cole’s friends and family, and was even in Edinburgh last week to support her as she filmed the final auditions for this year’s X Factor.

A source told The Sun: ‘Only a handful of people knew. She’s never been so happy.’

The source added added: ‘Cheryl’s madly in love and had no fear about taking the plunge. She’s delighted he’s her new husband and wants to have his babies. It’s a beautiful thing. She’s on cloud nine right now.’

According to previous reports, Jean-Bernard built up a playboy reputation in his twenties while living in New York. In a profile on ‘Eurotrash’ jetsetters by the New York Times, Mr Fernandez-Versini was described as a university student ‘who summers on the Riviera, spends winter vacations in St. Barts’ and took a year off just to party.

‘However, since 2008, Jean-Bernard has used his connections to grow his pop-up restaurant business.’

[From The Daily Mail]

A playboy/entrepreneur who “used his connections to grow his pop-up restaurant business”??? For the love of God, Cheryl. Why?! Oh well… at least she’s happy? She’ll be happy for a few months and she’ll figure out that this guy is a cheater, a leech, a famewhore or all of the above and then Cheryl will be on the all of the UK tabloid covers with stories like “Cheryl doesn’t believe in love anymore” and “Cheryl’s Love Rat wants her fortune.”

    She’s either pregnant or stupid. Maybe both.
    I’m sure the pregnancy will be announced days before X factor starts and her new album released.

  2. chakliuk says:

    This is the same woman who got that hideous tattoo across both her ass cheeks. She is a mess.

    • eva says:

      OFGS, I just saw her instagram name Ladyccole, she is completely deluded.

      And is that a mirror or did she really spread her legs that wide to fit her finger in the frame?

    • Aussie girl says:

      Yes I remember seeing her tattoo and it wasn’t the best piece of work & that is me been kind.

    • cujo says:

      OMG, I saw that tattoo. It is the absolute worst. Wait till she ages and her butt cheeks fall to her knees.

    • MMRMB says:

      lmao… this ^^^^^^^

  3. Panache says:

    Well… Mazel tov, I guess.
    It does boggle the mind, though.

  4. FingerBinger says:

    She’s like the more attractive version of Katie Price.

    • Panache says:

      Katie Price was actually rather cute before all the surgery. Still an idiot, though. Just a less plastic idiot.

      • Andrea says:

        Her and Katie have the same taste in men. Her marrying fast is very Katie Price. Let’s hope she doesn’t catch up to Katie in the husband department yet..

    • Clever hand says:

      My first thought was that she’s seen all the press katie got in her latest split and wants some f

  5. Bridget says:

    God I hope she at least gets a post-nuptual agreement. She has truly the worst taste in men.

  6. jujoki says:

    is it Cheryl Fernandez-Versini now? Cheryl Versini? Do we go back to Cheryl Tweedy?

  7. Amberica says:

    Eh. I got married that fast and am still happy nine years later. I doubt that will happen here, but who am I to judge?

    • kc says:

      I can’t hate, either. I got married that fast 15 years ago, and still like my guy.

      That begin said, I do think there is a narcissism and need to be adulated by people who go into fan based careers, so once the new/excitement wears off, this might be over. But I don’t think it will have as much to do with the dating time as it does with the personality.

  8. OhDear says:

    So is she going to stop using her ex-husband’s last name?

    • FingerBinger says:

      Both Susan Sarandon and Demi Moore kept their ex-husband’s last name. That’s not really a big deal. Also, people know her by that name.

    • Skittles4Marshawn says:

      “Cole” is HER last name. It’s 2014 — women’s names are their own.

      Every time someone asks me why I didn’t change my name when I got married, this is it. Even if you change your name, people don’t think of it as yours, just as a signifier that you belong to your husband. If you point this out, they make the argument that your original last name was your “dad’s.” Yeah, okay, it was also my mom’s. So just pretend I got it from her. Either way, apparently we don’t even get to own the names we were born with.

      Cole’s name is her own, regardless of where she “got it” from, or whether she will ever change it.

      • Madi says:

        She was born Cheryl Tweedy. She married Ashley Cole then divorced him. She changed her name from Tweedy to Cole when she married Ashley

      • Skittles4Marshawn says:

        @ Madi. Girl, reread my comment. Her name is her name, regardless of where she “got it” from.

  9. Dani says:

    Her ring looks fake.

  10. Britt says:

    The first thing I saw in that picture was her shoes. And I want them bad.

    That ring is hideous and I hope she at least got a prenup.

  11. Liberty says:

    Now, now, now. To be the voice of dissent here, I think that we’ve all seen people date for two, five or even, I don’t know, nine years — and end up in wonky marriages, eh?

    So, what the hell, meet and marry in two months. Heck, meet and in marry in two weeks! Or Las Vegas it, two hours! Maybe there should be a law: if you don’t want to marry in two months, there MUST BE NOTHING HOT THERE, move ON!!! Marry a pop-up restaurant king (is that another way of saying food truck?) or marry a singing wrestler or marry a retired football player or marry the dude you found living in a shack at the bottom of the garden! Spontaneous! .. like, a movie. A movie! You get all the long-term romantic MYSTERY and it lasts longer because you DON’T KNOW WHO THEY ARE or about their secret kids, fiancé in Denmark, etc etc!! Or better yet, marry someone whose language you DO NOT SPEAK so when he converses with his friends you have NO IDEA WHAT HTEY ARE SAYING and can imagine they are saying “buy her MOAR FLOWERS and BUY HER SHOES!!!”

    I think this is more fun and the way to do it. I think she may be a relationship genius. When you are just at home staring at Mr You, she is out there making HEADLINES and marrying FRENCH PLAYBOYS who can make food pop up!!!
    Think about THAT.

    • Olenna says:

      True! LOL!

    • maybeiamcrazy says:

      Hahaha. All along Cheryl Cole was actually smarter than all of the haters.

    • Foobie says:

      I love this comment! Hahahaaa!!

    • Val says:

      Haha! <3 you

    • Skittles4Marshawn says:

      Agree. The worst thing that can happen is she gets divorced. And then what? Rinse and repeat and live a full life.

      I got divorced after three months of marriage to my husband — after we’d been dating for 8 years! Plenty of people stay in relationships like that and consider them to be more successful than those in a whirlwind relationship regardless of the respective happiness levels. Ridiculous.

    • Pepsi Presents...Coke says:

      You’re Rick Sanchez, right? That is a compliment.

  12. Kaya says:

    I don’t see how anyone of us can say this marriage won’t last. When people marry, it is customary to wish them good luck and pray for their success as a couple. Not predict impending doom.

  13. Kiki says:

    These stories about celebrities and their ‘antics’ just makes us regular people feel better about ourselves. Oh celeb, why are they so stupid?

  14. Sighs says:

    I’ve always thought she was absolutely gorgeous. And pretty funny in interviews. Perhaps not the most astute girl. I mean, what was she thinking with that wretched tattoo? But I wish her well and happy marriage and all that.

    • Val says:

      I love her too. Also wth with that tattoo, and this marriage…. oh Cheryl 🙁 I hope it works, but the guy looks like a sleaze.

  15. AG-UK says:

    Well she’s cute enough but I still go back to the bathroom attendant fiasco and I just can’t even with her cute dimples, however best of luck to her it’s her life and she can do what she likes.

  16. Anaya says:

    I’m happy for Cheryl. I also am cautiously optimistic about this marriage. There’s no correct length of time a couple should date before getting married. Sometimes short relationships that quickly lead to marriage work out wonderfully. Other times it does not. Cheryl’s been hurt before by a bad marriage, bad ex husband, so I just want to believe (at least for now) that this marriage will stick.

    As for prenups. Isn’t it correct that the UK doesn’t recognize prenups? I think back to Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s divorce. I think they may have had a prenup but it was not valid since they mostly resided in England or something like that.

    • Mon says:

      Yes, I don’t exactly believe that the length of time two people have known each other matters as such however what does matter is how well they know one another and I don’t think you can get to know someone well in three months normally. I’m sure there are exceptions there, but in this case this does not seem to be the case especially that she just seems to want to be married and have babies. She seems more in love with the idea and not the actual person she is seeing and does not seem to bothered who she will marry if only they are good looking. Her approach to marriage does not seem to be healthy and for those reasons this marriage does not have a big chance of lasting. Plus I live in the uk and no one here had been speculating about her relationship…

  17. Mon says:

    Yes, let’s all marry and have babies with strangers! And the. Be a surprised when things don’t work out…

  18. Andrea says:

    The description about him being a euro jetsetter who took a year off of university to party is the most disturbing line I have read in awhile. Another words, he is gold-digging on her. Lovely.

  19. FasterPussycat says:

    English law doesn’t treat pre-nups or post-nups as binding, but they are persuasive. If a divorcing couple can’t agree how to divide their finances and they have a previous agreement then this is one factor a judg will take into account when determining the terms of the settlement.

    To me it all goes back to the bathroom assault. Her team try to recast her as a national sweetheart but I can’t forget that poor toilet assistant’s bruised and swollen face. Cheryl has the potential to be very nasty indeed and people often forget that.

  20. He looks more like a younger, but still very botoxed Rupert Everett.

    Cheryl’s extremely beautiful but a completely idiot. This doesn’t surprise me. It shouldn’t be shocking when a pop star marries someone in such a short period of time. Isn’t that the m.o? I think it’s a rite of passage at this point.

  21. Grant says:

    Ugh, I love her. I can’t help it. But this is a terribly stupid decision, I agree. I would love to hear more about Cheryl on this blog, btw!!! I think she’s interesting and I like her pop music.

  22. Sarah says:

    I like Cheryl too, for no real reason (I don’t live in the UK and don’t know her music); perhaps because Ashley seemed so unlikable. Her Instagram is MissCheryl though – not the account posted above. The roses tattoo though…what was she thinking? That’s a worse decision than anything she’s doing with this guy.
