Cheryl Says She'd Happily Date A 'Shelf-Stacker From Sainbury's'

Cheryl Says She'd Happily Date A 'Shelf-Stacker From Sainbury's'

The singer says she'd be 'open to meeting someone not in the industry'

Cheryl Tweedy (or Fernandez-Versini or Cole or whatever) has had her fair share of celebrity boyfriends - including footballer Ashley Cole and Liam Payne, the latter of whom is father to her son Bear.

But now it seems as though she'd rather go for a low-profile fella and says she'd be happy with a 'shelf-stacker from Sainsbury's'. Fair play, she'd probably get a decent discount on her weekly shop.

The pop-star shares a son with Liam Payne.

Speaking to the Sun, Cheryl said: "I heard Sheridan Smith met her boyfriend on Tinder and, absolutely, I would be open to meeting someone new, someone not in the industry.

"Not right now necessarily but at some stage. It doesn't matter what they do, so long as he was a good guy and treated me right. I honestly wouldn't care.

"I would 100 percent date a shelf-stacker from Sainsbury's. What you do doesn't define you as a human being. Some people just don't get the break they want, while some people are happy working at Sainsbury's. It doesn't matter."

That noise there was a collective cheer from the shelf-stackers of Sainsbury's, who now know they've got a chance with the Geordie pop star.

She went on to add that she doesn't care if she earns more than her potential partner.

"I have absolutely no problem with being the breadwinner in a relationship," she added.

"If, as women, we want to be classed as equal, why on Earth should I? So long as he is happy to stay at home and take care of Bear.

"Is he a good person? With good intentions and a good soul? Do they treat me right? If the answer is 'yes' to all of these, then who gives a shit if they stack shelves.

"I mean, it's not like I want to be celibate forever. But I have no time frame for meeting someone - I'm just happy doing my thing. Whatever happens, happens."

But if you're hoping to find Chezza on Tinder or Bumble then allow me to burst that bubble, as the former Girls Aloud singer said she wasn't keen.

She continued: "I heard about a celebrity one called Raya. But no, I wouldn't want to go on it."

Anyway, who needs dating apps when you can just go to your local supermarket?
