Cheryl has a lovely family. Heard great stories from X factor contestants she mentored. They often visited her backstage. Nice to see them.
She's beautiful!
Her genetic material needs to be stored in a capsule and sent to outer space, and if or when it is discovered by other civilizations they can truly know how beautiful humans can be❤️
I love the way she talk!!😍😍😍
It took me like 3 years to be able to understand what the heck she was saying with that accent. I'm an American in Boston.
A lot of people wonder how she could have gone so long in life without seeing some of these photos or knowing some of this family history....when I was a kid, say 14-15, I didn't know most of the family history I know now. I knew who my parents were, as far as any kid thinks to know their parents. I knew who my mom's parents were, I had grown up with them all of my life until their deaths. I never met my dad's parents, they were both dead before mom and dad ever met.
However I never got to know my parents or grandparents beyond the level of who they were to me. I never got to know them as who they were before they all married and started their own families. I never gave any thought to looking through old family photos and putting names with faces etc.
Then my grandfather died in 1995 at the age of 74 and I was 15, almost 16. I remember starting to think about how much I DIDN'T know about him....about how much of his service in WWII I had never learned about...about how I had never asked him about what his parents had been like. All of those things that I now think about, I never asked him.
By the time I was 18 I had gotten into doing genealogy. It started not long after my grandfather died actually. I heard one of my aunts (grandma's sister) mention an ancestor from the 1800s, and I got nosy. Finally when mom figured out it wasn't just a passing phase for me, she helped me get started doing the work.
Now I am almost 41, and I have largely become the keeper of most of the old family photos and am usually the one people come to when they need family history info. I took time to make an audio recording of my grandmother and 2 of her sisters describing what life was like growing up in the 1920s-1930s in rural farming NC being the children of share-croppers (I am so happy to have that recording....grandma died in 2010....It means more to me than almost anything else I have). I have a video I posted to facebook of my dad telling some funny stories about growing up in the 40s and 50s in his old neighborhood being one of 8 children...his father was an Italian immigrant and his mother was 1st generation American.
Once I lost grandpa, it became more important to get to know the people I care about most on a deeper level. They aren't JUST mom and dad....They aren't JUST grandparents. They had a life before all of that. And if you don't at least try to learn who they were/are you're doing yourself and them a disservice.
Wonderful! ❤️❤️ I'm about to dig on my mom's side. Not sure what to do with the Greek side of me.
@@katia.luna213 if it's anything like it was/has been trying to find info on my Italian side of the family good luck. With having immigrated and the name spelling chances etc it's hard sometimes to know what you're looking at.
Omaigash!! Cheryl used to worked at Malaysian cuisine cafe! We Malaysian gonna proud of this
She is just the most beautiful woman in the world.
I absolutely Love the historical journey in researching ones Family Tree...I’m certain that there will be multiple similarities like her father and she has. 🤔🙇🏻♀️🔍💗🔑👩🏻💻
She's so beautiful
.....wolf in sheep's' clothing, that one!
Dam I just love her she so cute and talented 💕
omg ! cheryl used to work in Malaysian restaurant !
I love how off the subtitles are haha.
I love her
How has she never seen these photos before?
Cause they didn't showed it to her?
Kind of thought the same, maybe they are not the nostalgic types?
@lonely star That Shame
How could you say she’s like her Dad ,she is so beautiful nothing like him,l love her as do thousands of others xx
Her dad was a good looking guy back in the day. He's got good features. You can see pictures of him on the web with Cheryl on his lap. Definately got a split of her dad and mom in the most beautiful way.
❤️ Thank You ❤️
I like cheryl cole she is beautiful inside and out and she is so talented..
Loida Garbo there’s a toilet attendant shaking her head at this
Me and my sister found out our grandmother was part of the tweedy family so we got the book the print was so tiny my grandma Eliason was a Lange
@David Ritchie when my dad get a change go trace chery Cole family
So weird - I've never heard of her before - and boom! Laings and Woods - except ours are all from Scotland.
Who is laing and wood? I dont get it and i don't know about england history
Beautiful...
My goodness is there anything as beautiful on goods green earth as this woman????????????????
Yes Angelina jolie
Such a good looking family
MS CHERYL _ CHEERS FRM EDMUND FRM SINGAPORE
Wat dit toch een mooie vrouw! Zowel innerlijk als uiterlijk.
She used to work in Malaysian cuisine cafe - done claimed -
The subtitles are hilarious!
What a nice, beautiful, woman with a good heart.
Well Cheryl, my name is Cheryl Anne Phillips, my maternal Grandfather's name is Robert Harris Christian and his wife, my maternal grandmother's name Is EtherlTweedy. So I guess we are related.
Small world!!
And my cat's called tweedy.... so weird we all connect
My name is Lucinda Grace Tweedy and I was born in Newcastle in 2002
I think I may be related to Cheryl in some ways
I’m a little perplexed that it is only now in her late 30’s that she’s asking questions about her dads mum, dad etc..
Auntie Perri , be nice !
Perri Jones well she has to let everyone know on the programme obviously
Cheryl Tweedy Music 🤔
She is busy working at her 20s.
Doubtful. This is a TV show after all, it's mostly staged.
Gosh she's beautiful
Beautiful
They're so cute
Her dad is called Gary and so is one of her brothers wow
I'm not sure how far back I know my family tree. I know my mother was a member of "The Daughters of the American Revolution" so she was able to trace her family back to 1776 at least. On my father's side I'm not sure. I know back to my great grandfather. As far as I know Im English, Irish, Welsh, a little Scottish, and a little Dutch.
Wow I love her I wish I could marry her but she has already got a husband she is stunning 😍 💗 even when she started her popstar on pop stars the rival I have loved her so much ❤
5 months ago what husband did Cheryl have? She has not been married for a while.
@@aspenrebel Really? What did he do
@@jackroberts9812 who? She was married to that soccer player 1st, got divorced. Then she married that French Italian guy, got divorced. Then she had a baby with that 1 direction kid. Then they split up.
The grandfather worked in the co op. Cheryl started off dancing in the co op. Creepy
She danced above the co-op in the room/studio
Lol I’m just baffled that she is “shocked” seeing pictures she has obviously been shown before as a child.
damien absalon it’s probably for the show
Why should see off seen them before? I am doing my family tree, never heard of most of them. Couldn’t even say what my Grandmothers full name is.Only knew her as Nana.So it’s not unusual at all.Just was never spoke about.
Only 2 years ago I saw my mum and dad's wedding picture!....In 1928!
😂😂 They didn't do so well writing this all out
😢
Lol shoutin through the letter box done it meself
Looks like Eva longeria.
She definitely has Mediterranean ancestry
Strange that her dad introduced her to his wife? Cheryl never met her?
Huh? Her dad's wife isn't in this video
It makes no sense for such a lovely soft lady to have such a turbulent relationship history.
hahaha - "it makes no sense" because that poor little hard-done-by-woman probably contributed to most of the turbulence in ALL HER RELATIONSHIPS!
This allegedly 'lovely soft lady' AND her P.R. Team's enormous efforts to keep her reputation sweet by re-hashing & steam-cleaning her personal history is THE only version they want us to believe.
Even though Miss - Handy- with- her- Fists- Tweedy appeared in Court in Oct 2003 for assaulting an elderly lady toilet attendant..... shrinking violet and sweet little Geordie Gal ?????
@@elizabethsheffield6609 You seem to have a vendetta against Cheryl. It's well documented that Ashley Cole cheated on her. with some plain looking hairdresser.
Often women, even successful talented independent women make bad choices in men. Look at Scary Spice's choices in men.
@@elizabethsheffield6609 I vaguely remember something about that last thing you mentioned. She would have been 20 years old then. Was she drunk?
Then Cheryl was a cradle robber.
Cheryl is a stunning looking woman
Tweedy, Laing and Kelso are Scottish Borders names. These names back to James Laing could easily be traced,
How does she not know her grandparents name?!?
I'm almost 20 and I don't know my grandparents name. Although I'm Vietnamese so there's a bug language barrier
@@NT-co1qw you never asked your parents?
Funny, a little while ago I just read a study that said today's English people have very little Roman blood or Viking blood in them. That they are mostly German blood from the Saxons.
I'm an Anderson born from the vikings, also Scottish heritage and born scouser
She needs DNA done, she definitely has some Mediterranean ancestry
Maybe somewhere along her lineage yeah. She does have the slightly sallow skin, dark hair and eyes. Maybe very distant Greek heritage or something?
Apparently at school she used to be bullied by other kids who made remarks to the effect of she was of Pakistani origin.
Surname Laing is Eastern. Could be Vietnamiese
No, it's an old Scottish name.
EuFamily A simple google search could answer your question.
Laing is indeed Scottish and apparently means tall.
Common as anything. Real good actor as behind closed doors rough as they come
common as muck
I thought you wanted to know what it meant and I just explained that the saying is common as muck. I do think she is common, and only those who know her for real can say if she's 'lovely'.
Duh, why does common mean doing something bad? And what an idiotic argument about my 'lovely' comment. You seem proper common yourself... i.e uneducated, unintelligent, can barely read or write, but are good at idiotic arguments and twisting and turning. Often have a big gob, enjoy hustling and all manner of subversive tactics to disguise your utter stupidity.
The state of her dad, proper thug.
You're beyond hope - which also defines common.
You'll have to pretend I'm someone famous so I can be important enough to show all my cool ancestors I've found in my tree on your show.
Wow she had bad dreams of Caroline x
She looks spanish
Never heard of her.
Same, the way they were hyping her up at the start you'd think she's a world wide sensation!
Are you not from Britain?
She looks like her dad but with her mum complexion
We don't know her at all in the 🇺🇸
Kaleah Collins , yup, true story. I’ve never heard of this chick.
I think Simon tried to bring her to Cali but the accent just turned the execs & audiences off. Only know her from Graham Norton.
Girls Aloud had a song or two on a club Billboard, and that's it 🤷🏻♀️ The X Factor U.S. doesn't count since it immediately got her fired lol
I guess that’s why, you never heard of her. You’re not from the UK, her group and her not that much recognised. Outside the UK.
Why shout through the letter box, just knock on
D Robertson I found that a little odd too
Just habit from being a child
We all done it
That a northern thing
@@alexiasummer7475 so your northern if shout through a letter box instead of knocking on.?
@@israeladesanya4596 no it’s just a thing we do
Her brother was involved in a post office robbery! He grassed up on the rest of his criminal pals but went to prison!
Noura is Arabic name and cheryl his charme from Arabic
They've all got good teeth up there cause of the water
One comment here irks me... when Cheryl noted "they've all got good teeth", and then smiles as if to say "it runs in the family". Um, no it doesn't Cheryl. You paid for a mouth full of veneers...
I think she was being sarcastic.
that one clearly went over your head.. yall will do anything to pick at this woman lol.
Well, it was a very poor and forced attempt at sarcasm.
@@molerat3461 okay you're nitpicking a very small exchange she was having with her father. There is nothing to examine or look into. You ain't the sarcasm police hun.
I know it's one exchange. Hence my "one comment irks me" opener. I don't proclaim to be the sarcasm police, love. Have a good day!
Who came here after seeing Cheryl's new cheekbones
Shaz! 😂😂😂
@@WhoDoYouThinkYouAre lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Who cares?
She's definitely got some other ancestry, she doesn't look English /European
The only gripe I have with Cheryl is the accent. I grew up not too far from her and I've lived down South On and Off for 10 year where as she's lived London/Surrey for a lot longer.
You can tell I've got a North-East dialect, and it gets stronger the longer I spend back home. But for her to be away that long and put out an accent thicker than the locals just grips my s**t and I don't know why.
Ant&Decs' accents have watered down due to their living etc.
Either she watches "Auf Weidersehen, Pet", "Spender", "55° North" and "Bobby Thompson" on repeat with minimal outside influence or she's puttin it on.
Her accents thicker than her brothers, man!
5:33 bein a Prime Example 🤦🏻♂️
Apart from that she's got talent and passion but the thickenin up of the accent is just.... 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
*We need the DNA done. This barely answered anything.*
She’s pretty but ngl she creeps me out a bit with how reserved she is, can’t put my finger on it, it’s like she doesn’t respond normally to social cues.
What's tragic is that 'Cheryl' has had to future-proof this episode by omitting any surname that may become obsolete within a year.
I've already seen this comment on two of the Cheryl 'WDYTYA' videos. Copypasta much?
@@elisa1979 So what?
I think she needs an ancestry dna test .the family definitely has some skeletons in the cupboard..
she could pass for Greek, or Romanian
@@revskull 🇬🇷 This Greek agrees :) It could also be that they are Romani/Traveler and not want it public.
@@katia.luna213 I think you're Spot on about the Travelers.
Is she just english then?
Pop Star? LOLOLOL!
why has she not bought her family out of poverty? thats evil if u ask me. shes rolling in cash an cant even help her family.
Maybe her family want her to keep her money.they might not want her hangouts which I think is good and I'm sure if her family needed help then she would help them.
Because they’re just normal people. They work, they don’t need her money. I’m sure she has helped them. They aren’t in poverty, just normal working class people 😂😂
@@cherylmusic7546 Alot of the Girls in Girls Aloud don't "take care" of their Families and in many ways it was a smart thing. Kimberley did buy her Mom a Car and Nicola buys things for her Brothers. Florence Ballard took care of her Family when she hit the Big Time in The Supremes and when she got fired and ended up broke, her Family was somewhat angry at her, just when they got used to living the good life it was taken away from them. Also her Father didn't exactly step up when it came to taking care of the Family back in the day.
Her family are not bloody in poverty now!
Her family ISN'T a snake like you are. They're not there to BEG for money like you.
Not interested one bit.
Andrew Jackson then why are you here, you simpleton?!
Why you here then?
WDYTUA is totally scrapping the z list barrel now. A reailty winner now gets the treatment. U did sir billy connolly, and now a chips and cheese geordie who got picked on a reality pop show to join other nobody's. definitely time to bin this ONCE great show. Who is next on it? only way is essex fools.
To be fair, Cheryl was at one point the Nation's Sweetheart so even if you don't or nobody likes her now, they loved her at one point. If you don't like her just dont watch the clip. Im sure you could spend the 7 minutes and the 11 seconds on something more interesting to you.
@@Alex-jd3bs she is not worth appearing on this ONCE great show. She is not famous IMO to be allowed on this show. mind boggling the shows bosses would even consider her. She is best on CBB or in the Australian jungle eating kangaroo testicles 👍🏿
aye and neither are you pal, but at least shes got career for herself that she chose and worked hard at for all of her adult life. Which is more than a lot of people can say. *Again* if you don't like her, dont watch it. It's not that hard. And you pull the unlimited viewership out your arse and give it to the show and give them the funds and resources to get everyone you personally think deserves to be on the show. At the end of the day, shes a lot more well known than you are.
@@YOYO-mx6ie 2008 to 2012 cheryl was at her peak she peaked so early some of the credit goes to ashley cole all that cheating and divorce people made her a nation sweetheart but her aura has faded now the magic has gone lol
Just because you don’t like her doesn’t mean she’s a z-list celeb... get over yourself like. I mean you can get kidnapped for 6 days and be called a “celeb” these days ffs 😂😂 At least Cheryl can actually be classified as a celebrity. CBB or IACGMOH could never afford to get Cheryl on their shows. 😂😂
Must be on multi millions why not buy your dad a decent size house!
Mtf trans it's Man for sure!
Carole Farmer Absolutely. More people need to wake up and see what "she" really is.
😭😭😭😭 you’re a freak
Now is that actually her father or a paid actor? I feel like her real family is rotting away in some tin shack in Egypt.
💀💀💀💀😂
