Victoria Beckham has offered advice and support to Cheryl Cole as her pal struggles to cope with allegations of her husband’s infidelity.

Victoria said: “I support Cheryl 100 per cent. I have not spoken to her, but I'm always there for her. I'm behind her - I feel for anyone going through a tough time.

"I have so much sympathy for Cheryl. My heart goes out to her – both as a woman and as someone in the media spotlight. I feel for her so much, it’s a horrible situation but she’s a fantastic, strong woman and she will be fine. David’s not a Premiership player now, so I can’t relate entirely. But I do sympathise."

Meanwhile, Victoria isn’t the only megastar who has vowed to help Cheryl after her fellow The X Factor judge, Simon Cowell, offered his help and support while praising her for being a “strong girl” and handling the situation well.

He told the Mail Online: “She's a friend and you're always going to be there for friends.

“She's going through a hard time, but you know, she's a strong girl. I've been in touch and I'm there for her.”

Discussing whether or not she should divorce her soccer star husband, Simon added: “You've got to do what feels right for you.”

Cheryl is due to have crisis talks with her estranged hubby this week, the first time the pair will see each other after announced they were separating on 23 February 2010, following claims he had sex with several other women and sent them explicit photo messages. This is not the first time it has been claimed Ashley had cheated on Cheryl after he apprently slept with hairdresser Aimee Walton in 2008. Cheryl didn’t wear her wedding rings for eight months after those allegations and, at the time, admitted she was disappointed Victoria hadn’t been in touch to offer support.

If we were Cheryl, our “crisis talks” would consist of telling that cad just how much his philandering ways were going to cost him!
