Girls Aloud star Cheryl Cole refuses to blame her recent dramatic weight loss on the breakdown of her marriage.

The singer is married to English soccer ace Ashley Cole, but the couple has recently been rocked by claims of the sportsman's alleged infidelities. Photographs of Cole looking thin have frequented the British press, but she insists her weight loss is down to the band's grueling dance routines while on their U.K. tour.

A spokesman for the star says, "Cheryl is not trying to lose weight, and she's eating healthily. She has always been tiny. Yes, she has lost weight and she's aware of it - but if you're dancing for two hours a night and sweating a lot, it's going to happen."
