Emotional: Cheryl Cole was seen on TV last night breaking down as she opened up on Piers Morgan's Life Stories about her dramatic yearShe refuses to say whether they're an item or not.
But one thing's for sure. Derek Hough occupies a very special place in Cheryl Cole's heart.
The X Factor judge's hotly anticipated interview with Piers Mogan was screened last night, where she opened up about malaria, divorce and spoke warmly of Hough.
She said that if it wasn't for his intervention and pleading with her to get a blood test, she believes she would have died from the deadly strain of malaria she contracted in July following their holiday to Tanzania.
The star said she had been given just 24 hours to live as she fought the illness in hospital, where she wrote a will in the event of the worst outcome.
Speaking of Hough, she told Morgan: 'He's an amazing, amazing person.'
She said she was angry at him at first for suggesting a blood test because she didn't like needles.
Candid chat: The singer and X Factor judge said she is still in touch with ex-husband Ashley and said she owed her life to friend Derek Hough who made her get a blood test, which later revealed she had malariaBut in retrospect, she now says his actions most probably saved her life.
'I can never repay him for that,' she added.
However, she kept people guessing about the status of her relationship with the Dancing With The Stars professional.
Life saver: Cheryl and Derek on stage together back in June‘I am not confirming or denying anything.
‘People can think he's my boyfriend, people can think he's my best friend.’
Renowned for her reserved nature and reticence to speak about her private life, the 27-year-old singer broke her silence for the first time since her divorce from Ashley Cole as she talked to Morgan.
She confessed that after discovering her ex-husband’s string of flings: 'I was just a very heartbroken girl.'
Despite this, Mrs Cole said she would always love him as she admitted she was at a loss to explain why the relationship had collapsed.
The star revealed that she still regularly speaks to Cole despite his frequent infidelity during their three-and-a-half year marriage.
The singer, whose divorce was finalised last month, sobbed as said she still believed he was ‘a genuinely nice guy’, adding: ‘Once we get over this obstacle, I hope we can be friends again. A part of me will always love Ashley.’
She explained: 'Looking back on it, I feel numb. We had a great marriage and a fantastic wedding day but I don't know where it went wrong.'
Mrs Cole was joined by her mother Joan Callaghan and Girls Aloud bandmates Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts, who all cried during the interview as she discussed her battle against the tropical disease.
She said doctors told her she was close to death after she contracted the illness during a trip to Tanzania.
She admitted drinking three vodkas the night before a photoshoot which left her feeling like she had ‘the worst hangover’.
It turned out to be the start of her struggle with the illness.
In the interview, she admitted drawing up a will and considering how to divide up her possessions among friends and family.

Mrs Cole, who earned £1.2million for the last series of The X Factor, also
discussed her relationship with Simon Cowell, adding: ‘I have a connection with him like no one else.
‘He is one of the most important people in my life. He just gets me.’
However she confessed she missed being a ‘regular’ girl.
‘Sometimes I feel completely trapped,’ she said. ‘I just can’t go back to Newcastle and put on tracksuit bottoms and Ugg boots.’
The Newcastle-born singer spoke about the recent backlash against her decision not to put Gamu Nhengu through to the X Factor live shows, insisting she'd made the right choices with Katie Waissel and Cher Lloyd.
But she said she was sorry that Gamu was facing deportation to Zimbabwe.
