Sarah HardingGirls Aloud star Sarah Harding has reportedly been dumped as the face of Ultimo lingerie.

The singer signed a £100,000 deal with the bra manufactuers last year and was expected to renew her contract again for a larger sum - but Ultimo are said to have signed the Pussycat Doll’s Nicole Scherzinger instead.

A source told the People newspaper: “Sarah’s a bit upset but she is sure she won’t be short of modelling offers - plus she’s really busy with the group. She’s got more than enough going on.”

Dancing on Ice star Suzanne Shaw has also recently signed a deal with the company: she will represent their new range, Michelle, joint-branded with Asda.
