Sex ban slapped on malaria-hit Cheryl Cole

London: Malaria-stricken Cheryl Cole has been banned by doctors from having sex.
The frail Girls Aloud singer survived a horror spell in intensive care and finally returned to her Surrey home on Wednesday.

Cheryl with her mother Joan Callaghan and dancer friend Derek Hough had a good laugh when she found out that her high blood pressure meant that she had to keep away from alcohol and sex.

"Cheryl managed to summon enough energy for a giggle when she was given the news about a sex ban. It's the last thing on her mind right now," The Sun quoted asource as saying.

"She has also been told to avoid alcohol for the coming weeks," the source added.

Meanwhile, Black Eyed Peas lead singer Will.I.Am has been sending Cheryl huge bouquets and also been calling Joan and Derek to get her health updates.

"Will has been phoning Joan and Derek non-stop to find out how Cheryl is," said a source.

"He's also sent the most beautiful bunches of flowers. He's been desperate to see her but she hasn't been up to having visitors. As soon as Joan said she was a lot better, he wasted no time arranging a visit," the source added
