Cheryl shares first post in months to support Sarah Harding in secret cancer battle

Cheryl has made her first social media post in months after Sarah Harding confirmed she has been secretly battling breast cancer.

The Girls Aloud singer, 37, took to Twitter on Wednesday to share a broken heart emoji after her former bandmate confirmed the news.

It is the first time Cheryl has tweeted anything since May and appears to come in response to Sarah's announcement.

Sarah, 38, took to her account Twitter account just minutes earlier to say she was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year.

Sharing a picture of herself in a hospital gown, she revealed the cancer had spread to other parts of her body.

She wrote: "There's no easy way to say this and actually it doesn't even feel real writing this, but here goes.

"Earlier this year I was diagnosed with breast cancer and a couple of weeks ago I received the devastating news that the cancer has advanced to other parts of my body."

Sarah said she is undergoing weekly chemotherapy as she vowed to fight the disease with everything she's got.

She continued: "I'm currently undergoing weekly chemotherapy sessions and I am fighting as hard as I possibly can.

"I understand this might be shocking to read on social media and that really isn't my intention.

"But last week it was mentioned online that I had been seen in hospital, so I feel now is the time to let people know what’s going on and this is the best way I can think of to do so."
