The Irish Sun go big this Saturday with their ‘Showbiz Exclusive’ that Cheryl Cole is set to hit her love-cheat hubby Ashley with demands of a divorce settlement of at least €4.8million. An insider has revealed that Ashley “is expecting it to cost him at least €4.8million. He can’t believe she will walk away without a pennyâ€.
So basically: an unnamed source is speculating that Ashley thinks that Cheryl will want some money. She hasn’t asked for any, but the unnamed source thinks maybe she might. It’s a bit of a weak story to lead with, if you ask us. Still, it gives us the excuse to put a picture of the Girls Aloud star on this page.
The Irish Daily Star has the story of the Monaghan granny killed when her teenage L-driver grandson reversed into her as she tended to her garden. The freak accident came as teen Conor was learning how to drive. Bridie Kelly, 66, was rushed to hospital, but died from her injuries.
The Irish Daily Mirror, meanwhile, leads with the story of “The Boy Who Got Awayâ€, namely nine-year-old Jordan Williams who came face to face with deranged killer Derrick Bird in the middle of his killing spree in Cumbria, northern England, but escaped with his life, despite freezing to the spot at point-blank range as Bird stopped his car next to him.
The articulate young lad tells The Mirror: “His eyes were black like those of a hawk looking for prey. I stared back. He’d just shot a man in front of me. We were like it for seven seconds, but I didn’t run. I don’t know why. For some reason he just grabbed the wheel and started moving.â€
