It looks like Cheryl has now officially dropped the surname 'Cole' as the singer was this week publicly referred to by her maiden name 'Tweedy' for the first time since she filed for divorce from football star Ashley Cole.
According to The Mirror, Simon Cowell introduced his fellow TV judge at last Tuesday's 'X Factor' auditions by saying: "Who would like to hear from Cheryl... Tweedy. It is, now, isn't it?"
His remark prompted the 2,500-strong audience at London's ExCeL centre to scream and cheer.
21-year-old fan Kate Gibbs told The Mirror: "The support for her was immense. When Simon announced her as Cheryl Tweedy the whole place went up.
"Cheryl was beaming. It was as if a new chapter in her life had just started and she looked happier than ever."
Not only has the 26-year-old Girls Aloud singer filed for divorce, she is also reportedly planning to have her 'Mrs C' tattoo removed from the back of her neck.
Changing her surname back to Tweedy could, however, turn out to be an even more difficult task for her record label, as the star released her first solo album under the name Cole
