A source told us: “Cheryl’s life has become a real horror show, and to be honest, it is difficult not to feel for her. I mean, you can believe that she is in constant fear that Bannister may have been sent only a few weeks after prison?
“He was able to run free now, and that sends her to Pure panic mode. She even delivered security at her home as if it was a scene from a thriller film, and every time she steps out, it is as if she is scrapping for an attack.
“In the meantime, she tries to juggle her own trauma about Liam’s death while helping Bear deal with Lose his father.
“Friends and family are completely crazy about the potential release of Bannister, Hey can see that her ‘Mum Face’ is just a front.
“The smallest things have dropped her – poor cheryl struggles while he pretends that everything is good for Bear.
“It is frankly heartbreaking. She is really grabbed with panic every time she puts foot out. “
