Career is Cheryl Cole’s top love

Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole has said that her career is her number one love.

Cheryl's statement has apparently confirmed that her marriage with footballer Ashley Cole is over.

Cheryl's statement came when she appeared on a talk show in Oslo, Norway.

Interviewer Fredrik Skavlan interviewed Cheryl and asked her several questions about her broken marriage, reports The Daily Star.

He then asked the singer if she still loved Ashley.

The 26-year-old tried to avoid the question but then she said, "I am focusing on my career now. That's what I love the most."
