We reported how Cheryl Tweedy, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts have dedicated the new song to bandmate Sarah Harding who died of cancer in 2021 aged 39.

During their hiatus, Girls Aloud have undertaken a variety of telly projects including Bake Off for Sports Relief in 2016 - where Ed's co-host Susanna Reid, 52, suggested he had a "bone to pick" with one singer.

The ex Labour MP, 56, told how he starred on the Channel 4 show alongside Kimberley Walsh, 41 - with the pair battling it out in the final.

Yet he told Good Morning Britain viewers how Kimberley "pipped me to the post" with an emotional showstopper cake showing her bandmate Cheryl suffering malaria on Mount Kilimanjo.

Keen baker Ed, who often brings his bakes onto GMB, told how he had made a majestic ski jump cake.

Jokingly hinting at a feud, he conceded: "She deserved to win, but she played it very well.

"What can I say?"

During the same show, Ed competed against Victoria Coren
Mitchell and Chris Kamara.

Meanwhile, Girls Aloud's reunion marks a remarkable comeback for the chart-topping group, dogged by rumours of feuds before they split in 2013.

A music source told us: “This has been one of the best-kept secrets in pop, but it’s actually happening now.

“The girls really came back together as friends to rally around when Sarah died, and it repaired some of the old rifts and put things into perspective. Suddenly the reunion which had seemed totally impossible for so long just felt a totally natural thing to do — in Sarah’s honour.”
