Cheryl speaks out on 'intensely emotional' night for Sarah Harding after reuniting with Girls Aloud and ex-Liam Payne

Cheryl Tweedy has shared her thoughts on an 'intensely emotional' night after the remaining members of Girls Aloud fulfilled Sarah Harding's dying wish. On Saturday night Cheryl, Nicola Roberts, Kimberley Walsh and Nadine Coyle hosted a fundraising gala for cancer research in memory of their late bandmate.

Sarah's Primrose Ball was held at The Londoner hotel in central London on Saturday, October 8, with performances from the likes of Olly Alexander and a live auction that included an original canvas depicting the pop star by artistic duo the Connor Brothers. Liam Payne was also seen in attendance supporting ex-Cheryl, with whom he shares son Bear.

The event comes just over a year after Sarah, who shot to fame alongside Kimberley, Cheryl, Nadine and Nicola in Girls Aloud in the earlier noughties, died aged 39 in September 2021 after revealing she had breast cancer which had spread to other parts of her body.
