Kimberly Walsh says Girls Aloud reunion would be ‘too painful’ without Sarah Harding

Girls Aloud's Kimberley Walsh appeared on This Morning today to speak to Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary following her unveiling as the character of Odd Socks on The Masked Dancer this weekend.

But Kimberley also spoke about how she and her Girls Aloud bandmates have funded a cancer research project in the late Sarah Harding’s name and told the hosts it’s unlikely the band will ever perform as a foursome again.

Sarah tragically died earlier this year at the age 39 and when asked about marking the band’s 20th anniversary in November, Kimberley explained: “We’re not really doing anything to celebrate that for obvious reasons, but what’s been really nice is we’ve been able to still come together and do some really positive fundraising for Sarah’s charity." Kimberley added: "We’ve got our Sound of The Underground re-release and all the money’s going to go to breast cancer research and the hospital that looked after Sarah, so that’s been a really good way I think of us finding something positive and a way to channel that.” Dermot asked, “Do you think sometime in the future you might do something to celebrate?

You’ve got this incredible fan base who’d love to see you live?” Kimberley said: “We were all together, we did a gala for Sarah last weekend and we were all together, and lots of our Girls Aloud family were there and it just felt really special to have that night, but I just feel for all of us, it would just be too painful." She continued: "We’re so grateful that we had the time that we did and that we can find a way of doing something positive.
