Reports emerged last week claiming Cheryl, 31, and 35-year-old Jean-Bernard are to split just 18 months after tying the knot, and Sarah, 34, waded into the allegations during an appearance on ITV’s Loose Women.

Sarah, who was in Girls Aloud for 10 years with Cheryl, said: “I dropped her a text, but Cheryl’s a strong girl and she’ll bounce back – she always does.”

Although X Factor judge Cheryl is still best friends with former GA members Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts, it’s no secret that Sarah and Nadine Coyle are not her closest confidants.

And Sarah confessed she’s only met Jean-Bernard once, but insisted he is a good man.

She continued: “I met him a couple of years ago on Xtra Factor, when I did that. He seemed nice enough, but I didn’t know them very well as a couple. Although he was always there… “

Cheryl and JB were last pictured together at Ant and Dec’s joint 40th birthday party in October 2015, and it’s been alleged that they actually separated five months ago.

A source told the Mirror: “By the time of Ant and Dec’s party they were just close friends who still enjoy spending time together.

“They were having a great time with their friends but there was nothing intimate by that stage. In the end they found they got on well but in reality probably got married to soon.”

Following a whirlwind three-month romance, Cheryl and JB married in secret on the island of Mustique in July 2014.
