Ashley Cole is a phoney, says UK Page 3 beauty's pal

London, Feb.2 : Love rat England footballer Ashley Cole has been described as a phoney by a friend of Page 3 beauty Jakki Degg, who claimed last night that he tried to bed Degg for three years, and even phoned her for a few months after his wedding to Cheryl.

"He chased her for a date for three years and they became friends. He was with Arsenal at the time. He was suggestive and flirting, but she just wasn't interested. She just put it down to Ashley being Ashley and brushed off his advances,he Sun quoted Degg's friend, as saying.

"He's a naughty boy and always will be. He's one of those blokes who can't help himself," she added.

"She hasn't heard from him recently," she claimed.

The Sun last week exposed Cole's romp with 22-year-old hairdresser Aimee Walton and a fling with Scots glamour model Brooke Healey, 23.

Cheryl has moved out of the couple's home in Oxshott, Surrey, and has taken advice over a divorce.
