“Cheryl has enough to think about on a packed theater stage every night without having to think about that too, but steps have been taken to increase security and reassure her.”
It has been reported that Cheryl has a team of her own security monitoring her movements and escorting her everywhere, while she has a car waiting outside the stage gate to take her back to her home in Buckinghamshire.
MailOnline has contacted a representative for Cheryl for comment.
Last week, Cheryl’s co-star Jake Wood said the theater newcomer has been “fearless” in her approach to her West End debut.
The former EastEnders actor, 50, reprized his role as Ben in the supernatural thriller after People Just Do Nothing’s Hugo Chegwin pulled out of the show due to illness during rehearsals.
Cheryl plays Jenny in the play, and Jake insists that it has been “remarkable” given that he has no prior acting experience.
told the Mirror: ‘I’m sure Cheryl felt the pressure, but after years in the industry, I don’t think she’s afraid.
“It’s quite remarkable to see someone who’s never acted before come on stage in the West End, she’s in the spotlight, with all that pressure.
‘It’s pretty amazing how tough it is, really. And she’s giving amazing performances, people are in awe of how good she is.
Jake, who originally played Ben opposite pop star Lily Allen, 37, in 2021, opened up about how some people were closed-minded when it came to Cheryl appearing in the production.
He said “certain areas” feel “some people should stay in their boxes,” but he thinks it’s a positive move for people to “diversify.”
The former soap opera star acknowledged that performing in a theater in front of “a few hundred” people is like water out of a duck’s back for pop stars who have played to packed stadiums with thousands of fans.
Cheryl replaced TV presenter Laura Whitmore when she joined the new cast of the show, which runs at the Lyric Theater through April 23, with Horrible Histories actress Louise Ford as Lauren and stage star Scott Karim as Sam. .
