Kimberley Walsh talks 'play dates' with Cheryl and Bear
They've been pals since their Girls Aloud days!
Last updated 18th May 2019
Kimberley Walsh and Cheryl Tweedy have been close friends since they started out in Girls Aloud together, having met on talent show Popstars: The Rivals way back in 2002. Cheryl, who is now mum to Bear Payne by her ex-boyfriend Liam Payne, and Kimberley, who shares sons Bobby and Cole with husband Justin Scott, have maintained their friendship despite the band splitting in 2009.
So it's no surprise that the pair spend a lot of time together now that they're both mums, as it means that they can meet up for playdates with their kids all together. Aww!
Speaking exclusively to heat at This Morning Live, Kimberley revealed that the playdates aren't exclusive to just herself and Cheryl, but they also invite Denise Van Outen along too!
She said, "All of my friends have got kids the same age, so I’m really lucky. I see all my friends with kids; obviously Cheryl, Denise Van Outen has got a little girl. My boys love older girls, so we love doing play dates with her as well. It’s great."
