Cheryl Cole gave a clear indication she’s on the road to recovery as she was pictured yesterday for the first time since contracting malaria.

Wearing not a scrap of make-up with her hair hanging loose, the 27-year-old smiled at photographers as she picked up a coffee from her local Starbucks in Surrey.

Wearing jeans, an off-the-shoulder white jumper and lace vest, the fresh-faced singer looked thrilled to be out in the fresh air again following nearly a month in bed.

Looking noticeably fuller in the face and a healthier size compared to her increasingly skinny frame in recent months, it appeared Mrs Cole has been enjoying home-cooked meals from her mother Joan Callaghan, who has been assisting her daughter’s recovery.

Clearly in a sociable mood after so many weeks recuperating, the star was more than happy to chat to fans and pose for photographs in the coffee shop.

Mrs Cole left hospital two weeks ago to recuperate at her Surrey mansion, which she used to share with estranged footballer husband Ashley.
