Ooops! Cheryl’s escaped a very awkward Cannes encounter with ex Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini…

Despite her regular attendance for the past few years, it was recently confirmed that new mum Cheryl would be skipping the Cannes Film Festival this year.

According to L’Oreal, she will not be attending this year’s festivities as she simply isn’t ready to, following the birth of her son with Liam Payne in late March.

However, it looks as if there’s an extra benefit in her staying home – as her ex-husband, Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini, has revealed that he’s launching a brand new restaurant in that very city, just in time for the festival!

‘Versini is expected to host film junkets, A-list diners, private events and premiere parties and promises to be unlike anything else the festival has seen before, providing a glamorous daytime go-to venue for stars to enjoy a variety of specially created cocktails, before slipping into an evening of rock and roll glamour,’ an official statement for Versini reads.
