Ashley Cole allegedly had one-night stand with a girl on US tour

Soccer star Ashley Cole had a one-night stand with a girl during Chelsea's tour of America, it has emerged.

Ann Corbitt is the fourth girl the player, who is married to Girls Aloud member Cheryl, has been linked to.

Corbitt, who is a local government worker, apparently met the England defender in July last year after Chelsea beat Seattle Sounders during the Blues' ten-day pre-season tour of America.

"Ashley Cole was celebrating the victory with a handful of Chelsea team-mates and their friends in a bar in downtown Seattle," the Sun quoted Corbitt's pal as saying.

The friend added: "Ann and a friend got talking to Ashley. Ann and Ashley hit it off straight away and they spent most of the rest of that evening by each other's side.

 "They both had quite a bit to drink and were in high spirits. They went on to the Amber nightclub, where they stayed in the VIP area."

Corbitt revealed to her friends that Cole later took her to Seattle's Four Seasons hotel.

The pal added: "Ann said she spent the night with Ashley and then left the next morning. She never saw him or spoke to him after that.

"She is about as different to a trashy British glamour girl as you can get. Ann is usually a civilised, well-educated girl who is seriously involved in politics and has ambitions to work her way to the top.

"But she went on and on about how cool it is that she slept with a celebrity and how attractive Ashley thought she was. She was really big-headed about the whole thing."

The pal added that Corbitt has been receiving phone calls "out of the blue" in the last few days. The friend said: "She believes Ashley's associates are trying to silence her."

Cole was first exposed to have cheated with his wife in 2008. He had then bedded hairdresser Aimee Walton after binge drinking.
