The excerpts from the book reveal that Sarah feels “scared” about a new tumour, at the base of her spine or in her brain, which means her prognosis has “worsened”.

She also revealed that doctors told her Christmas 2020 would most likely be her last.

Sarah also ruled out radiotherapy on her brain because, if she only has six months left, she doesn’t want to spend it hiding away after losing her hair.

Cheryl added that she tried – and failed – to hide her upset from Sarah.

Mostly, I try to keep my own emotions in check. But on one FaceTime call with her the other day, I couldn’t hold it in.

“I tried to move the phone out of the way so she couldn’t see my face. The mad thing is, it ended up with Sarah comforting me,” Cheryl revealed.

How have the other Girls Aloud bandmates reaction to the news?

Speaking exclusively to Entertainment Daily, Kimberley Walsh also revealed how she was dealing with the devastating news.

Kimberley revealed: “With anyone who’s suffering from cancer, that is the one thing you do feel is completely helpless.

“All you can do is literally be there, constantly remind them that you’re there to help with whatever is humanely possible.

“And she knows that she can ask us for anything.”
