    The songstress, who went to ground after her early exit from the American show and has not been seen in public since, told how she’s been relaxing at home with friends and family, and even joked about enjoying a break from high heels.

    ‘I have had the time that I have not had in so long to just chill with my loved ones and do the normal things that I like to do,’ the Geordie singer told fans.

    ‘It feels long overdue and sooooo good, even my feet are happy to not have to wear a pair of high heels hehe.’

    Signing off the post with a promise of more news soon, Cheryl reminded fans to ‘keep calm and carry on’ in the coming weeks.

    ‘You are my little soldiers and you mean the world to me,’ she wrote. ‘Remember what I tell you, stay strong, keep calm and carry on ;) I'll speak to you all soon when I have some new news, until then I salute you :)’

    Despite the rambling message, Cheryl failed to reveal what she planned to do next, or when she would return to work.

    She also made no mention of reports she’s considering a reconciliation with ex-hubby Ashley Cole, after rumours of a reunion at their Surrey mansion.

    What do you think Cheryl’s should do next? Would you like to see her reunite with Ashely? Or should she concentrate on her career? Let us know your thoughts in the comments box below
