Nadine Coyle attends 2:22 A Ghost Story to support Girls Aloud bandmate Cheryl

Nadine Coyle has finally attended the theatre to see Cheryl in 2:22 A Ghost Story after being absent from the play’s press night.

The singer, 37, took to her Instagram on Tuesday evening to share a snap outside the Lyric Theatre, ahead of watching her former Girls Aloud bandmate, 39, on stage.

Cheryl made her West End debut in February and was supported by her fellow bandmates Kimberley and Nicola, however, Nadine was not present.

Kimberley confirmed that Nadine was supposed to be attending the show on press night. She told The Mirror : "It’s a shame Nadine isn’t here. She was supposed to be coming. She really doesn’t like anything scary."

While a theatre source told the publication: "Nadine was supposed to be sat on the second row between Kimberley and Nicola.

"They had planned to show up as a group to support Cheryl. She sent a good luck message instead."

Cheryl will play Jenny in the show until April 23. She follows fellow singer Lily Allen, I’m A Celeb winner Giovanna Fletcher and former Love Island presenter Laura Whitmore in the role.

The former X Factor judge is reportedly paid £1,000 a show for her part as a mum who believes her house is haunted. Kimberley, who has appeared in numerous West End shows, believes her best pal is worth every penny.

The BBC Morning Live presenter said: "I think this is the perfect time for Cheryl to have moved into acting. She was amazing. I am so proud of her. This could open the doors to a whole new career.

"She is really talented so there is no reason she can’t go on to have some huge acting roles."

Last month, it was reported that Cheryl hired security after threats were allegedly left by a stalker at her theatre show.

The Fight for This Love hitmaker is said to have brought in security to escort her in and out of the show. The mum of one is believed to now be using her own security team and minders employed by the theatre to keep her safe.

Cheryl is said to be closely followed by her security team who monitor her movements through the venue.

It comes after the pop star has had stalkers over the years, with one who bombarded her with "nasty" messages.
