The News Of The World says that Girls Aloud will split next year after a recent series of rows, especially between Cheryl Tweedy and the rest of the band, Tweedy allegedly becoming something of a nightmare now that she is friends with Victoria Beckham after being in Germany to support fiancé and England player Ashley Cole.
One of those sources told the tabloid: "They just don't talk at all - it's over for them. There's always been a rift in the band. Nadine and Cheryl don't talk, there is no communication. There's also a rift between Sarah and the others. Nadine has been saying that Cheryl thinks she's Victoria Beckham, especially after hanging around with Posh during the World Cup. And the other girls reckon Cheryl feels that she's above them - they don't think her heart is in the band any more."
If all that is true, quite why they'd wait till next year before splitting isn't entirely clear.
