Girls Aloud Concert Aired 2 Years After Sarah Harding's Death

BBC premiered Girls Aloud: Tangled Up Live on Saturday 15 years after Girls Aloud was formed through "Popstars: The Rivals."

It featured footage from the concert and showed Harding with her bandmates, Kimberley Walsh, Nadine Coyle, Cheryl and Nicola Roberts as they performed their hit songs like "Sound of the Underground," "Biology" and "Love Machine."

The airing also led Girls Aloud's name to appear on X's trending list, with fans reminiscing the group's golden times with Harding.

One said, "Girls Aloud trending honestly made my heart burst with joy,the impact they had was something else. 5 absolute queens who deserve the world. i feel so lucky to have gone to every single tour (multiple times) & made amazing friends/memories all thanks to the girls.#GirlsAloud"

"How good were #girlsaloud though? Some of the best concerts I've ever been too, I miss them!" another wrote.

"Absolutely watching the Girls Aloud 2008 concert on tv. They were SO good. Sarah Harding [broken heart emoji]," another posted.

How Did Sarah Harding Die?

Harding's mother Marie confirmed the musician's death on Instagram, revealing that the Girls Aloud member died at the age of 39 after her battle with breast cancer.

"I know she won't want to be remembered for her fight against this terrible disease - she was a bright shining star and I hope that's how she can be remembered instead," part of the statement read.

Harding first revealed her breast cancer diagnosis in August 2020 and shared that the dreaded illness spread to other parts of her body. She underwent treatments and procedures, including chemotherapy and mastectomy but still received bad news from her doctor.

In her memoir "Hear Me Out," Harding said her doctor said the Christmas 2022 might be her last, though she still tried to remain positive since she might surprise everyone with a potential recovery.

However, she ultimately slipped away after her brave battle with the disease.
