Cheryl Cole sends text of support to Coleen Rooney

X Factor judge Cheryl Cole feels for Coleen Rooney

Coleen Rooney started dating Wayne as a young teenager

Cheryl Cole wants Coleen Rooney to know that she's thinking of her.

The X Factor judge, whose decree nisi in her divorce from Ashley Cole has been granted in the High Court, is reported to have texted Col to tell her to 'stay strong'.

The mum-of-one, 24, is believed to have texted back with a string of kisses.

'Cheryl's latest text was very short but she made it clear she was thinking of Coleen and understood what she was going through,' a source told The Sun.

'Coleen was really pleased and showed it to a few friends. No one understands better than Cheryl what its like to be in that situation.'

Coleen and Wayne Rooney have released a joint statement requesting privacy to sort out their marriage after recent claims about the England footballer's behaviour.

Last Sunday, tabloid newspapers published allegations that soccer star Wayne had slept with prostitutes while his wife was pregnant.
