While Cheryl Cole was twerking up a storm on Britain’s Got Talent last night, it seems her ex was landing himself in a lot of hot water!

Cheryl’s ex-hubby Ashley Cole is to be question by police over claims he assaulted a TV presenter in a nightclub.

The Chelsea football star, who is in the US after being overlooked for England’s World Cup squad, allegedly threw champagne over Sky TV presenter Donatella Panayiotou, yelling, “You know what this is for!”

Celebrities including rapper Drake were among the VIPs who turned out to celebrate basketball star Nick Young’s 29th birthday at Hollywood nightclub Lure last night.

Donatella, who also starred in ITV series Young, Posh and Loaded, is believed to have slapped Ashley in the face during the row.

She could be heard screaming: ‘I’ve never done anything to you. Who the f*** do you think you are?’”

The spat spilled outside before both stormed off in opposite ­directions, still hurling abuse.

Donatella has now contacted LAPD, claiming Ashley confronted her in a nightclub and poured champagne over her head.

She has also told officers she was pushed and shoved during the bust-up, which she says ended with her throat piercing being ripped out.

Donatella made waves last year, after it was revealed Corrie actress Helen Flanagan’s beau Scott Sinclair had been ‘sexting’ her.

Oh, the drama!
