British popstar and Girls Aloud star Cheryl's brother, Andrew Tweedy, has been photographed living in a tent outside a supermarket and begging for money, despite the singer's previous attempts to fund his rehabilitation. Reports indicate that Andrew has been homeless since 2021, underscoring a long-running and deeply personal struggle.

The singer's brother has endured a turbulent history of addiction and criminal activity, resulting in repeated cycles through rehabilitation facilities. Most recently, he appeared before South Tyneside Magistrates' Court in March, where he entered a guilty plea for being drunk and disorderly. The charge followed an incident on 25 February, which took place outside the same branch of Morrisons where he is now pitching his tent and seeking charity from the public.
