"We didn’t have any privileges. I remember living on baked beans, eggs and bread - if it wasn’t out of date,” the News of the World quoted her as saying. She added: “If we got a McDonald`s or a Chinese takeaway, oh my God, that was a treat, a luxury, because it was costing my mother a fortune. "I’d get a Barbie that was four years out of fashion from a girl in the street who didn’t want it any more. “And I’d get hand-me-downs from a girl up the road who had everything she wanted. Then she’d be like, ``Ha ha! Cheryl’s got my jumper on!`` " Meanwhile, Cole’s new single is ‘Fight For This Love’ is set to hit No 1. ANI
