The Black Eyed Peas star, who has made no secret of his feelings for Chezza is said to have tried to sit down with the singer to tell her about Hough's reputation as a ladies man.
A source told heat magazine: "Will claims he hasn’t heard the best things about Derek from mutual acquaintances."
They added: "He says he’s heard that Derek is a bit of a player with a real eye for the ladies and he’s anxious he’ll hurt her like Ashley did."

The insider also claims that the Boom Boom Pow singer is so desperate to win the Girls Aloud star back from Derek that he was even sent her flowers with a card that says 'Call me.'
Cheryl is currently still sunning herself in Los Angeles with Derek ahead of her return to the X Factor with some reports suggesting that the dancer will join her at the Judges' Houses stage or replace creative director Brian Friedman on the show.
