When you’re going through heartbreak, a good night out with the girls is often the best remedy and it seems Cheryl Fernandez-Versini agrees.
Just a week after it was announced that she had split with her husband JB, last night the X Factor judge couldn’t stop smiling as she headed into London for Kimberley Walsh’s Hen Do.
The pair, along with their former Girl’s Aloud bandmate Nicola Roberts, Kara Tointon and Denise Van Outen, to name just a few of the guests, hit London’s trendy Cuckoo Club for the party.
It seems the evening was animal themed as all of Kimberley’s Hens wore animal print, with the bride-to-be wearing a stunning snakeskin print outfit.
It’s thought Cheryl, 32, is one of the chief wedding planners and is helping Kimberley with everything she’ll need for the big day.“Kimberley sorted the date for her wedding ages ago and Cheryl is going to be there to ensure the big day goes to plan,” an insider told the Sun.
“She’s played a huge part in the preparations and being involved has at least provided her with a bit of a distraction from her own troubles.”
Kimberley is set to marry her long term boyfriend Justin Scott in Barbados later this year and recently gushed about Cheryl and Nicola acting as her bridesmaids.
“We've grown up together from when Nicola was 16, Cheryl was 19 and I was 20,” Kimberley told Reveal. “We've grown into women together.
“We lived in each other's pockets for 12 years, and it was quite intense. I've been so lucky to make friends for life with those girls. The three of us shared so many experiences and we've got so much depth to our friendship.”
She continued: “Even if we go through phases where we're busy and we don't see each other, we'll never lose that bond.”
