London - (Penalty Box): Next week's expected Toni Terry homecoming has proved a Wayne Bridge too far for the dark-haired French beauty.

A £750K redundancy payoff from ex-lover John Terry has seen Vanessa Perroncel leg it from Chelsea FC's very own Wisteria Lane to a secret central London hideaway.

Pals reckon the cheque will finance a deposit on a swanky new Central London penthouse, remedial pastic surgery and a much needed life insurance upgrade.

Toni Terry's return from a Dubai holiday to her Warren Lane, Oxshott Heath matrimonial home has made much of Surrey a Perroncel no-go ghetto.

The Chelsea captain's long-suffering missus is reported to have spurned the chance of a Valentine's Day reunion with her love-rat husband.

"Instead of a Valentine's card she's sending John one of those one hundred quid divorce advice tokens from some topnotch matrimonial lawyers," sources close to her hairdressers said today.

There's only one Gary Lineker.
