Sharon, who is the mother of Ashley's two children, is believed to have met the footballer when he joined AS Roma in Italy back in 2014.

The couple choose to keep their relationship extremely private, with Ashley often not featuring Sharon on his social media pages.

Sharon and Ashley became parents for the first time in February 2016 after months of speculation that Sharon was pregnant.

They never confirmed the birth and are yet to reveal their son's name.

The couple welcomed their second child in February 2018 - a little girl they called Grace.

Ashley was previously married to pop singer Cheryl - then part of girl band Girls Aloud - after they tied the knot in a lavish wedding in 2006.

The Coles lived in a stunning £6million mansion in Godalming, Surrey, enjoying the fruits of two wages that brought their wealth to an estimated £25million between them.

Reported affairs, including an alleged tryst with hairdresser Aimee Walton in 2008, caused their marriage to break down.
