Brave Cheryl Tweedy is due to return to work this week after a remarkable recovery from malaria.

The 26-year-old X Factor judge, who contracted the potentially fatal disease last month, has been in talks with TV chiefs about going back to work for the first time next Friday with an interview for ITV2 spin-off show The Xtra Factor.

The interview with Xtra Factor host Konnie Huq is likely to take place in the grounds of the Surrey home that the Girls Aloud singer once shared with Chelsea and England footballer Ashley Cole.

The singer has also been in touch with boss Simon Cowell about returning to the panel in time for the Judges’ Houses stage of the competition next month.

She has been joking with the 50-year-old X Factor boss by text – warning him not to keep the best acts for himself while she is sick and fellow judge Dannii Minogue is on maternity leave.

A source close to the singer, who is currently divorcing Cole, said: “Cheryl is a fighter and this has been the fight of her life. She’s put all her energy into getting better and it looks like it’s paid off. The fact she’s cracking jokes again is a wonderful sign that the feisty old Cheryl is returning.

“Simon has told her he can’t wait to have her back on board.”

Cheryl Cole’s X Factor boot camp replacement Nicole Scherzinger, has been slammed by TV presenter Stephen Mulhern who says Kimberley Walsh would have been ‘ideal’.

The Geordie judge’s malaria scare meant she had to pull out of this year’s boot camp stage. Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole had been Dannii MInogue’s stand-in judge for the Manchester auditions, which Cheryl also couldn’t make, and show bosses loved her so much they signed her up to cover for Chezza at the next stage of the talent contest.

But Magic Numbers presenter Mulhern doesn’t agree with ITV’s decision and believes his one-time 5 O’Clock Show co-host would have been better suited.

Speaking to Metro.co.uk, he said: ‘Honestly I would have gone for Kimberley Walsh to replace Cheryl over Nicole for boot camp.’

‘She’s more like Cheryl. I don’t really know Nicole but I think Kimberley would have just been the perfect pick.’

‘I did the 5 o’clock show with her and I thought she was brilliant. I think she would have been ideal. It’s interesting that they’ve gone for Nicole. But we shall see how it turns out.’

But Kimberley doesn’t need to fear as she recently landed her own TV show Suck My Pop on Viva co-hosting with Will Best.

This will be the first time she has had her own official presenting role after co-presenting the 5 O’clock show with Mulhern last month.

There must have been magic in the water on the tea-time show though as Stephen also landed his own primetime show on ITV.

Kimberley Walsh doesn’t want to work on ‘The X Factor’ without Cheryl Cole.

The Girls Aloud singer – who has previously joined her bandmate by mentoring contestants on the reality show, and helping her decide who should go into the final – admits she won’t be stepping in to replace Cheryl on the judging panel while she takes time out from the show to recover from malaria.

She said: “‘The X Factor’ was great when I did it with Cheryl because we’re friends and we had similar opinions, but it would feel weird to do it without her.”

‘The X Factor’ was great when I did it with Cheryl because we’re friends and we had similar opinions, but it would feel weird to do it without her.

The 28-year-old singer recently landed a presenting slot of her own, on new music show ‘Suck My Pop’ for digital channel Viva.

Discussing her work, she added to Britain’s OK! magazine: “I just interviewed JLS and got them to bare their six-packs!”

Kimberley will star alongside newcomer Will Best in the new Friday evening series, and will discuss the latest celebrity gossip and music news whilst interviewing famous faces and presenting a chart show.

Fresh from wowing the crowds of London fashion week with her super glam stylings, Nicola will be appearing as a guest judge on Britain’s Next Top Model alongside fashion legendary model Elle Macpherson.

The programme is set to air on Living TV on Monday the 26th of July at 9pm.

Make sure you tune in to see our foxy fashionista Miss Roberts in action.

Cheryl Cole may be forced to film the ‘judges houses’ segment of the X Factor in Britain – as she could still be too poorly to travel.

The judges – Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh, Cheryl and Dannii Minogue – normally jet away to somewhere exotic to whittle down their finalists.

However, as the fragile star continues to recover at home after battling Malaria, it has become clear that producers may have to amend their plans.

A show source told the Mail: ‘At this stage we are looking at different ways to make things as easy as possible for Cheryl.’

Last year, Mrs Cole, 27, who mentored the boys, whittled down her finalists in in Marrakech, Morocco, with the help of Will Young.

A source close to Mrs Cole added: ‘No decision has been made yet about judges homes. It’s still some way off so we will see closer to the time.’

New mum Minogue, who gave birth to son Ethan earlier this month, is expecting to rejoin the show for the judges house at the end of August following her maternity leave.

Last week, Cowell, 50, admitted that the petite brunette was keen to return to work.

She missed the final X Factor auditions in Manchester – and will miss the boot camp auditions this week.

But Cowell said: ‘I think she is keen to get back to work. I just want to make sure she doesn’t rush back too early.

‘We’re going to have a conversation about that.’

Cheryl Cole has been forced to cancel a weeks work, including the Manchester X Factor auditions later this week, after falling ill over the weekend.

A source told The Sun, Cheryl appeared pale, gaunt and was sweating whilst having her makeup done for an album cover shoot. She then collapsed with exhaustion at the studio in London.

A doctor was rushed to the scene and ordered complete rest for a minimum of 7 days. It appears Cheryl has a vicious gastroenteritis bug.

Earlier this morning, Cheryl’s PR Company ‘SupersonicPR’ tweeted this statment on twitter:

Following doctor’s advice Cheryl Cole will be canceling all work commitments for the next week

This is very likely to include all 3 Machester audition dates. Cheryl has reportedly been working 18hrs days since announcing her divorce to Ashley Cole.

All of us at GirlsAloudMedia hope that Cheryl has a long deserving rest, and wishes her a speedy recovery. Manchester auditions will not be the same without you!

SEXY Cheryl Cole has shown her cheating husband the red card by finally ditching her married name.

The stunning babe proved she has moved on from love rat Ashley, 29, by using her maiden name Tweedy at yesterday’s X Factor auditions.

Fellow judge Simon Cowell, 50, helped her rub salt in the pining England star’s wounds by joking about the change with the 2,500 crowd as they filmed at London’s ExCel centre.

After chatting to fans he teased: “Who would like to hear from Cheryl… TWEEDY. It is, now, isn’t it?”

The delighted audience erupted to give the 26-year-old Girls Aloud singer a standing ovation for cutting off her last tie with serial cheat Ashley, who played yesterday in England’s 1-0 World Cup win over Slovenia to reach the last 16.

Cheryl-mad Kate Gibbs, 21, said: “The support for her was immense. When Simon announced her as Cheryl Tweedy the whole place went up.

“Cheryl was beaming. It was as if a new chapter in her life had just started and she looked happier than ever.”

It is the first time the sexpot – now dating US hunk Derek Hough, 25 – has publicly reverted to her maiden name.

The breakthrough came just days after she enjoyed a romantic getaway with the dancer while her ex slogged away for England in South Africa.

She is also said to be considering treatment to get her “Mrs C” tattoo taken off the back of her neck.

A source said: “Ashley is old news and this is yet more prove that Cheryl has moved on. He must be gutted.”
