London, Mar 15 (ANI): Ashley Cole had a row with wife/singer Cheryl over Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am before the soccer star's extra-marital affair was exposed, it has emerged.

Recently Will, who had selected Cheryl as a dancer for his Heartbreaker video in 2008, expressed his desire to hang out with Cheryl, reports the Sun.

He said: I'd move to London if it meant being with her. She's a beautiful girl. I can't wait to hang out with her more.

A source said: Will.I.Am's comments about his wife are not news or a surprise to Ashley. He and Cheryl rowed about it last year.

The insider added: She's done absolutely nothing wrong but Ashley's sick of this man openly making advances toward his missus.

Meanwhile, Cheryl reportedly refused to entertain Cole, when he came home to apologize to her over extra-marital affair. (ANI)
