Girls tribute to Sarah

Heartache as pop legends celebrate late Dandmate on reunion tour debut

- LAURA ARMSTRONG

GIRLS ALOUD last night performed a tear-jerking tribute to their late bandmate Sarah Harding as they kicked off their reunion tour.

The girl band, Cheryl Tweedy, Nadine Coyle, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh, had vowed their first gigs since 2013 would celebrate Sarah, who died aged 39 from breast cancer in 2021.

Speaking in the run-up to the six-week tour, Kimberley, 42, said: "Our main aim is to do Sarah justice."
