Bookmakers provides odds on Ashley and Cheryl re-uniting.
Bookmakers William Hill has slashed the odds on Ashley and Cheryl Cole getting back to together before Christmas, following reports that the couple are attending counselling together.The couple had been widely expected to go their separate ways after fresh allegations that Ashley had cheated on his wife and sent 'sex texts' to other women.
Odds have been cut from the 10/1 offered earlier in the week to 5/1.
"On Sunday we thought there was no hope of reconciliation but the latest suggests that there is more than a squeak of a chance," said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
The bookmakers had previously opened a market on who Cheryl's next boyfriend would be, with singer and Katie Price's ex-husband Peter Andre available at odds of 10/1.
The Chelsea defender was forced to sit out last night's England game against Egypt with an injury. Sports fans may be hoping that the left back is fit in time to make Fabio Capello's World Cup squad.
