A source told the MailOnline: “He gave her the jewellery to celebrate 12 months together. It belonged to his mother. It is now the ten-year anniversary of her death and he desperately wants it back, but Cheryl still hasn’t posted it and has made no effort to return it. He is pretty upset and would like it back.”

The news has baffled the 33-year-old star as she’s adamant Jean-Bernard has never mentioned his wish to have the jewel back and she’s furious his request has come to light through the press.

Another source added: “Since they split up last year, Cheryl has not worn it. She put it in a safe and totally forgot about it because he has never asked her for it. “Cheryl finds it very weird that this has just come to light now but she will send the ring over to her lawyers immediately.”

The former couple were awarded a decree nisi that ended their 18-month marriage within just 14 seconds at the Central Family Court in London yesterday morning and it’s thought the pop star will keep all of her estimated £20 million fortune.

However, in court papers obtained by The Sun newspaper Cheryl blamed Jean-Bernard for the stress that caused her dramatic weightloss during their 18-month marriage.

The brunette beauty has been dating One Direction star Liam Payne since January and is living with the 23-year-old hunk in Los Angeles, with rumours continuing to swirl that she’s pregnant with his child.
