Cheryl’s 40th birthday: Singer shuns big party as she celebrates with luxury glamping getaway

Cheryl shunned a big party as she celebrated her 40th birthday on Saturday.

The singer opted instead for a luxury glamping getaway and ‘fire party’ with her nearest and dearest at Suffolk’s posh Wilderness Reserve – where prices start from £1,299 per night for a three-bedroom holiday home.

On Instagram, Cheryl shared a glimpse of the journey with her 3 million followers as she roasted marshmallows and treated herself at a champagne bar in the woods.

The mother of one child was also greeted by a jeep filled to the brim with luxury essentials, including fluffy white robes and drinks on ice.

The former Girls Aloud member looked sensational for her partying in a pink cropped shirt and high-waisted green pants.

Cheryl shielded her eyes behind sunglasses and completed the ensemble with a fedora hat as she was seen walking her dog along the picturesque river.

The group then went into the woods for dinner, where they ate in a huge teepee decorated with beautiful flowers.

Diners enjoyed steaks cooked over an open fire before roasting marshmallows for dessert.

They later jumped into their chauffeured cars and seemed to be taken to more comfortable accommodation for the evening.

According to the website, Wilderness Reserve offers “peace and tranquility” on its sprawling property.

Describe Fire Feast as: ‘Dine in a remote forest among the ancient treetops with one of our most magical dining experiences yet’.

‘Our team will guide you along the leafy paths deeper and deeper into the forest until the smell of roast meat, fish and vegetables fills the air – as the clearing comes into view, an immaculately laid table of white linen and fresh flowers awaits while the bar wait will have your welcome drink ready’.

It comes after she shared a playful photo on Friday donning giant sunflower sunglasses.

Alongside the post, the mother of one child wrote, “So… this is 40.”

Cheryl was inundated with well wishes from her fans, with one writing: ‘Happy Birthday Geordie Queen’.

Another wrote: ‘Happiest 40th birthday Cheryl! I wish you a year full of love, health and happiness.

A third added: ‘Happy 40th Chez! I hope you are having the most wonderful time!”

Cheryl is in talks to make a revealing documentary about her life to mark her 40th birthday, it has been reported.

The former pop singer would follow in the footsteps of Ed Sheeran and Beyonce and is now in talks with a production company.

Cheryl, who was married twice, first found fame in Girls Aloud before becoming a household name as a judge on the X Factor, she later welcomed son Bear with One Direction’s Liam Payne, 29, and acted on the West End stage.

A source told The sun: “There has been a long line of other stars who have done the same, enjoying the rare opportunity to give their side of the story in their own words.”

“But Cheryl will only proceed if she is completely comfortable with the approach they will take and her level of input.”

“It’s too early to say which broadcaster is likely to air the show, but with competition between terrestrial channels and streamers stronger than ever, it would likely trigger a bidding war.”

MailOnline has reached out to Cheryl’s representatives for comment.

She was married to footballer Ashley Cole from 2006 to 2010, followed by restaurateur Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini from 2014-2016.

Cheryl reportedly split from Liam Payne after two years after feeling like she was raising her alone The sun reported in 2018.

Sources told the publication that the Girls Aloud star “effectively raised Bear on her own for most of his freshman year,” during the Bedroom Floor hitmaker’s time on the road.

Insiders insisted the cause of the breakup was due to his “constant travel to promote his pop career in the months after their child was born,” and received support from her mother Joan.
