FERGIE’s marriage to Josh Duhamael is doing just fine — according to her Black Eyed Peas bandmates Taboo and alp.de.ap.

“Everything’s good,” Taboo told Us Weekly magazine. “We’re enjoying touring. We’re a family, and we’re not going to allow any nonsense to bring us down.”

“I know my brother and I know my sister and how much love they have for each other,” the musician added of Fergie, 34, and Duhamel, 37.

“They’re in love and they’re perfect for each other,” added alp.de.ap.

Fergie, real name Stacy Ann Ferguson, was recently rocked by revelations her Transformers star husband had cheated on her with an exotic dancer.

Stripper Nicole Forrester, who apparently passed a lie-detector test, claimed she had a series of marathon sex sessions with Josh and branded him “the best lover” she ever had.

Although Josh has denied the claims, Forrester has since apologized to the Boom Boom Pow hitmaker for bedding her man.

“I’m sorry,” Nicole, 34, told US TV show Extra in an interview earlier this week.

“I thought, ‘Nobody’s gonna find out. It’s not gonna hurt anybody . . . I’m sorry that I didn’t think of it like I think of it now.”

THE stripper who claims to have had “lots of sex” with Fergie’s husband Josh Duhamel has apologized to the Black Eyed Peas star.

“I’m sorry,” Nicole Forrester, 34, told US TV show Extra.

“I thought, ‘Nobody’s gonna find out. It’s not gonna hurt anybody . . . I’m sorry that I didn’t think of it like I think of it now.”

Forrester says she’s furious she’s been labeled a home wrecker.

“She’s standing by her man, so obviously I’m not wrecking the home too bad, huh?” she says.

“My son,” Forrester adds, “went to a football game last Saturday and he was like, mom, ‘you’re disgusting. I didn’t know you had sex with him’.”

Forrester says she hasn’t stripped since the story broke. “I don’t want to because of my children,” she said. “They asked that I never do it again.”

WHAT a strange pairing!

Kristen Stewart reportedly shared a surprise encounter with Black Eyed Peas star Fergie after a late-night dinner at Paris’ Hôtel Costes’s restaurant.

“It was totally unplanned,” a source told People magazine.

Kristen, 19, is in the French capital promoting Twilight sequel New Moon, which hits theaters later this month.

Stewart was dining with her costars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, but the guys left by 1:30 a.m. to return to their hotel.

“Kristen stayed behind,” the source dished, adding that she chatted with Fergie until about 2 a.m. when they left the hotel together, holding hands as they walked out. “[They] looked like they’d gotten on really well.”

Kristen recently revealed that she doesn’t think her fame will endure.

“I have a really strong feeling that this is going to go away, that this is the most intense it’s going to get — and could get — and that it’s fleeting,” she said. “So in a few years, I will hopefully become more like the people I want to become like.”

FERGIE insists she’s always been very open with her husband Josh Duhamel — even about her bisexuality.

“The funny thing is that I was very open and honest about that from the very beginning, and everyone was acting like it was some new trend,” the singer, who is currently battling allegations Duhamel cheated on her with a stripper, tells the Advocate. “Go back four or five years, people, and you’ll see the same answer.”

“I’ve been very honest with him from the get-go,” added the Black Eyed Peas star. “I think women are beautiful. I’ve had a lot of fun with women, and I’m not ashamed of it.

“The problem is that I also love a well-endowed man. But just because I enjoy women doesn’t mean I’m allowed to have affairs in my relationship.

“I learned through talking with my therapist that it is still cheating even if it’s with girls, so there is a rule there.”

FERGIE is adamant her hunky hubby, Josh Duhamel, did not have sexual relations with a stripper.

The National Enquirer magazine reported last month that Duhamel has been having a secret fling with a buxom, blonde stripper called Nicole Forrester.

Forrester, who apparently passed a lie-detector test, claimed she had a series of marathon sex sessions with Josh and branded him “the best lover” she ever had.

But the Black Eyed Peas star isn’t buying the claims.

“These allegations are nonsense,” the singer, 34, told Entertainment Tonight.

In a recent interview with The Bert Show on Atlanta’s Q100-FM, Forrester insisted she did have sex with Duhamel.

“We did hook up, we had lots of sex, and we had a really, really good time,” she said.

“And then the next morning, when I left, you know, he kissed me on the cheek, really sweet guy.”

Forrester said she has saved text messages and “a lot of evidence” that she spent time with the hunky actor.

She also insisted that she is not in this for the money or the 15 minutes of fame. She just wants to clear her name and not be branded a liar.

“I would actually pay money to make this go away. If I had it, I would do it, you know? But I don’t,” she said. “Nothing I can change now…If it was going to get out there, I figured I might as well benefit from it. I think most people would.”

Sources have also told the Enquirer that Fergie is “floored” by the stripper’s claims.

“Fergie is absolutely floored,” said one insider. “She’s trying to get her bearings before deciding her next move.

“Josh denies he’s cheated. But they’re definitely in crisis mode as a couple.”

“Fergie has put Josh on notice and warned him not to step foot in strip clubs,” added the friend.

“Fergie is considering marriage counseling.”

“Part of the problem is their schedules,” said the friend. “They’re never together. She’s on the road or doing promotional work. He’s away filming.

“It’s like they’ve never had a real marriage since day one.”

Forrester, who apparently passed a lie-detector test, claimed she had a series of marathon sex sessions with Josh and branded him “the best lover” she ever had.

Now a distraught Fergie is pondering marriage counseling and other options to save her 10-month-old marriage.

“Fergie is absolutely floored,” a source told American tabloid the National Enquirer. “She’s trying to get her bearings before deciding her next move.

“Josh denies he’s cheated. But they’re definitely in crisis mode as a couple.”

JOSH Duhamel’s indiscretions are coming back to haunt him!

Despite Josh’s rep vehemently denying the actor had sex with a stripper, the woman in question — Nicole Forrester — insists the pair DID get down and dirty behind his wife Fergie’s back.

“We did hook up, we had lots of sex, and we had a really, really good time,” the stripper and mother of two said in an exclusive interview with The Bert Show on Atlanta’s Q100-FM.

“And then the next morning, when I left, you know, he kissed me on the cheek, really sweet guy.”

Forrester says she has saved text messages and “a lot of evidence” that she spent time with the hunky actor.

Forrester insists that she is not in this for the money or the 15 minutes of fame. She just wants to clear her name and not be branded a liar.

“I would actually pay money to make this go away. If I had it, I would do it, you know? But I don’t,” she said. “Nothing I can change now…If it was going to get out there, I figured I might as well benefit from it. I think most people would.”

And she says she doesn’t fear Duhamel, Fergie or their legal team.

“No, because it’s the truth. I’m not lying about anything, and he’s just as guilty as I am,” she said.

Meanwhile, Black Eyed Peas star Fergie apparently subjected Josh to a “a very intense and heated” discussion about straying with Nicole.

”He’s definitely IN the doghouse,” an insider said.

“But Fergie’s hanging in there — at least for the time being.

“She understands show business marriages are not like other people’s.

“She was fully aware of Josh’s reputation as a ladies man when she hooked up with him.”

FERGIE‘S hunky husband Josh Duhamel might have denied reports he had an affair with a stripper — but his superstar wife doesn’t believe him.

FERGIE’s hunky husband Josh Duhamel has rubbished claims he cheated on his pop star wife with a stripper.

The National Enquirer magazine reported earlier this week that Duhamel has been having a secret fling with a buxom, blonde stripper called Nicole Forrester.

Forrester, who apparently passed a lie-detector test, claimed she had a series of marathon sex sessions with Josh and branded him “the best lover” she ever had.

But a rep for Josh — who wed the 34-year-old Black Eyed Peas singer this past January — has spoken out to set the record straight.

“This is not the first nor will it be the last time that a stripper was paid a large amount of money to sell a false story about a celebrity,” the rep told Us Weekly magazine. “This story is absolutely ridiculous.”

Black Eyed Peas star Fergie admits her team of publicists “hate” it when she talks about her struggles with drugs — but she doesn’t care.

The Boom Boom Pow singer — who recently revealed she loved taking ecstasy — says she feels it’s her duty to open up about how she overcame addiction.

“Sometimes publicists get really mad with me for talking about stuff like that — but I don’t care,” Fergie told the prestigious Times of London newspaper.

“For me, it’s something I went through. It’s an epidemic, and it’s important to talk about it because it’s a very, very hard thing to stop.”

Fergie admits she’s still judged for her past even though she hasn’t used drugs in 10 years.

“I’m trying to get a thicker skin. I like to be aware of people’s perceptions of me, but when you put it as a priority, as a means to judging your worth, that’s when it can be dangerous,” she says.

“There’s no rule book on how to do this,” she continues.
