And instead of ignoring the question, the 33-year-old replied: "Maybe she could be [in] the big box I have at my house, lol just going to jump out."
He then went on to ask his followers what their dream birthday presents would be and retweeted his favourites - including a Harley Davidson and a raspberry flavoured Slush Puppy.
We wonder what Chezza will have to say about this...
The 30-year-old ended their three-and-a-half year marriage in 2010 following reports Ashley had cheated on her.
But despite the Fight For This Love singer's heartache, Cheryl previously revealed the pair are still on talking terms.
In an interview with Glamour magazine last year, Kimberley Walsh's BFF said: "The weirdest thing is, it takes a long time  after you've been with someone as long as I was [with Ashley] not to feel like you're cheating on them. That may sound crazy, but it's the way I felt after him. I had completely committed myself..."
Adding: "There's this perception that Ashley's an arrogant p***k, he's really not. We talk occasionally..."
