Her thin frame caused shockwaves last summer, and in December it was reported that at the time Cheryl Fernandez-Versini was dealing with the breakdown of her marriage to Jean-Bernard.
But last week the 32-year-old was all smiles as she arrived in Barbados for Kimberley Walsh’s wedding, and shared a bikini selfie showing her on the road to looking healthier, with pals saying the star is determined to focus on her health to help mend her broken heart.
A source says: “Cheryl has had a tough time and now admits her health wasn’t her focus. Now she’s overhauled her diet and fitness routine. Her brother Garry, who’s living with her, prepares her meals and she’s started boxing classes so she can feel physically stronger. She hopes focusing on her health will help her get over her heartbreak.”
Pals say her family and friends have encouraged Cheryl – who married JB in a secret ceremony in 2014 after just two months – to try to be healthier so when she dates again she’ll be in a good place.
