Michelle Heaton poses with Kerry Katona and Natasha Hamilton after replacing Liz McClarnon in Atomic Kitten
The new trio have just arrived in New Zealand as part of their world tour
MICHELLE Heaton has shared a sweet snap of her with her new bandmates, as Atomic Kitten continue their world tour.
It was revealed back in November that the former Liberty X singer would replace fans' favourite Liz McClarnon on the international tour.
The Popstars singer has though insisted Liz will remain as part of the trio's re-formed line-up for their UK shows, alongside Natasha Hamilton and Kerry Katona.
The girls are currently in New Zealand, after performing in Australia.
But the girls took time out from their busy schedule to keep their fans up-to-date with where they are.
Michelle tweeted a sweet picture of the new trio and wrote next to it: "Next stop New Zealand... here we come #girlsontour".
Michelle is no stranger touring as she found fame with her group - who lost out to winners Hear'Say - on the ITV talent show and said: “I’ve joined long-term but only internationally because Liz hates flying.
“Kerry and Natasha are a bit more wild than I’m used to in Liberty X but I’m crazy too, so it’s perfect."
Talking to, she added: “We’re all mums so when we’re away we let our hair down.
"We don’t get to do that at home.”
Last year Atomic Kitten, who had three No1 singles in the noughties, cancelled their Greatest Hits Tour.
