It could be just the case of winter blues, but apparently Cheryl Cole still has some feelings for her ex-hubby — Ashley Cole. This much was admitted by the pop singer herself. 

After a rather tumultuous relationship which subsequently led to their divorce last year, and of course after Cheryl caught Ashley with his pants down, Cheryl can’t quite cope with the separation. This despite the fact that she is currently in a relationship with Derek Hough. 
The Heat magazine reveals that Cheryl, while vacationing for the new year with Derek to Cape Town, kept a close contact with the footballer. 
A source also said that things seem to have taken for the better for Cheryl and Ashley and that the two seem still to be emotionally linked. When Ashley allegedly asked Cheryl if the singer is in love with Derek, the star admitted that she wants to take things slow. And here’s the juicy part, the singer then said that she’d never love another like she does Ashley.
