Sarah HardingSarah Harding is reportedly planning on taking Girls Aloud bandmate Cheryl Cole on a luxury weekend away to help her get back on her feet before the start of the band’s tour in May.

Cheryl’s personal life hit turbulence earlier this year when it was revealed that her husband Ashley Cole had been unfaithful. The singer fled their marital home and stopped eating in wake of the revelations but has now returned and is said to be working on rebuilding the relationship. But Sarah is said to still be worried about her bandmate.

A source told the Mirror that she’s arranged a weekend for them both at a Ockenden Manor hotel in West Sussex: “Sarah has been so worried about Cheryl in recent weeks and is desperate for her to return to her usual bubbly self.”

“Because she’s been so busy with work and filming commitments, combined with all her well documented problems with Ashley, she’s hardly had any down time. She’s also lost a quite a bit of weight of late, what with all the stress. Sarah basically wants to get Cheryl out into the fresh air and get her totally pampered.”

“Another advantage is that the hotel’s head chef, Stephen Crane, is famed for his hearty, no-nonsense meals. He’s from the Gordon Ramsay school of thought and doesn’t take to diets or fad foods too kindly.”

“It’s going to be a weekend of pure indulgence - the girls are already joking that Cheryl will emerge from the hotel needing some seriously reinforced Bridget Jones knickers!”
