Tearful Sheryl pleads for Gazza to come home
August 11th, 2008 - 4:06 pm ICT by ANI London, Aug.11 (ANI): Former England footballer Paul Gascoignes family last night begged him please come home from Prague, Europes Sin City, where he had jetted off with boozing buddy Jimmy Five Bellies Gardner.
His wife Sheryl was literally in tears while making the demand, as she fears Gazza, 41, who has just spent two months in rehab battling alcohol addiction and depression, will embark on a booze bender.
The troubled star, who hit the bottle after a hip replacement op at Christmas left him unable to kick a ball, was reunited with Sheryl during rehab treatment that cost his family and friends 100,000 pounds, reports The Sun.
But the pair clashed when mum-of-three Sheryl, 42, asked him to choose between her and best pal Gardner, who he had recently met up with after a bust-up.
To her horror he stormed out of her home yelling: No one controls me!
Sheryl has not seen him since and he is refusing to answer his mobile phone.
The couple, who divorced in 1998 after a stormy two-year marriage, were planning a second honeymoon in southern Italy with their son Regan, 12.
But on Saturday, Gazza and Gardner, 42, boarded an easyJet flight to the Czech Republic where they have been holed up in a 900-pound-a-night hotel suite.
The city is famous for its cheap, strong beer and sex. Prostitution is legal. (ANI)
