Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding dies at 39
    2021-09-07  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

SARAH HARDING, who found pop star fame as a singer with the British-Irish girl group Girls Aloud, has died from breast cancer, her mother announced on Instagram on Sunday. Harding was 39 years old.

“Many of you will know of Sarah’s battle with cancer and that she fought so strongly from her diagnosis until her last day. I know she won’t want to be remembered for her fight against this terrible disease — she was a bright shining star and I hope that’s how she can be remembered instead,” her mother, Marie, wrote.

Harding — who sang on Girls Aloud hits like “Love Machine” and “The Promise” alongside bandmates Cheryl Cole, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts before disbanding in 2013 — revealed her cancer diagnosis last August, sharing a selfie from her hospital bed. The British star told fans that after being diagnosed earlier that year, doctors had told her that the cancer had spread to other parts of her body.

Harding, who would have turned 40 in November, also pursued modeling and acting, becoming the face of Ultimo lingerie and starring in “St. Trinian’s 2: The Legend of Fritton’s Gold” in 2009, the year Girls Aloud announced the band was going on hiatus; they parted for good in 2013 following their 10th anniversary tour.

Harding also acted on the British soap opera “Coronation Street” in 2015, but couldn’t resist her reality TV roots. After competing on “Celebrity MasterChef” and “The Jump,” she joined the U.K. cast of “Celebrity Big Brother” in 2017, ultimately winning the competition.
