She's earning rave reviews for her role as Jenny in London's West End, and a Cheryl fan joked she was "blessed" after the star ended up 'soaking' her with wine during her performance in 2:22 A Ghost Story. The audience member said she had wine "puddled" in her jeans after it spilled over her during the show.

@AmeliaMharris tweeted: "Just been soaked head to toe with wine. Thanks Cheryl xo." Amelia added "It’s literally puddled in my jeans" and she told fellow Twitter users: "I’m still soaked."

When she was told "you've been blessed", she replied "I agree." @Guest11Jessica told her: "Omg bet you having a lovely time girl" and she agreed: "It’s incredible."

Speaking about the incident she said: "It missed my face luckily but it puddled in my jeans and it’s soaked through to my legs." And she saw the funny of side of the moment, tweeting: "Honestly I couldn’t stop laughing. Even if I am sitting in wet clothes now." She added: "I’m wearing dark jeans luckily."

Explaining what had happened, she wrote: "Cheryl knocks over a glass of wine during the show (it’s meant to happen) and she practically poured the whole glass right over me, it puddled it my jeans and I was sat soaked for the rest of the show."

And she said about the spillage: "She knocks wine over and it goes on someone in the front row. Just so happened i got soaked this time around."

Amelia said she also had wine spilled on her by Dr Who Mandip Gill, when she played the role of Jenny in the show last year. "I had it from Mandip too but definitely not as much. This one pooled in my jeans," she said. And she said: "I saw the show when Mandip was Jenny so I knew it was coming but I didn’t expect so much to hit me."

The former Girls Aloud star plays Jenny, a woman who fears her new home is haunted, in the show until April 23. The praise has been flooding in for the Fight For This Love singer, 39, who took over the part from former Love Island presenter Laura Whitmore.

jakejamie told her on Instagram: "You absolutely smashed it, I loved every single second!!" sammy.herbert commented: "You were AMAZING. soooo funny but I deffo jumped out of my skin 25 times!"

caitlinlawrence applauded: "You were absolutely phenomenal! I love the role of Jenny and you portrayed her and her emotions to a tea! You make the character come alive and I'm completely in awe of your talent. I'm so so proud of you and can’t wait to come see you at a lot more shows." And linzi_victoria, referring to fans thinking she's Fawn in The Masked Singer, asked: "Yeah but you are Fawn? No???"
