Nadine Coyle has been forced to pull out of a festival due to "exhaustion".

The 39-year-old singer - who has just finished the Girls Aloud tour of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Northern Ireland, with over 30 dates in total - has cancelled her appearance at the Kubix Festival in Sunderland over the weekend.

Kubix announced on social media: "Unfortunately, Nadine Coyle is no longer able to play Kubix due to exhaustion but we hope she gets plenty of rest and will be inviting her back to a future Festival!"

90s boyband Damage will replace Nadine on the line-up, which also includes Busted, Basshunter, and Cascada.

Meanwhile, it was recently reported that Nadine and her Girls Aloud bandmates are working on a one-off TV special which will document their reunion tour.

Nadine, Kimberley Walsh, 42, Cheryl, 41, and Nicola Roberts, 38, were followed by a camera crew for the tour, which was their first as a quartet without late bandmate Sarah Harding, who passed away at the age of 39 in September 2021.

A source told The Sun newspaper's TV Biz column: "There’s a number of options on the table as to how ITV could deliver the final piece.

"Backstage footage has been captured but bosses feel there’s equal value in presenting the show in its entirety as one glossy set piece."

Girls Aloud - who were formed in 2002 on TV talent show 'Popstars: The Rivals' - want the final programme to honour the memory of Sarah, who was the inspiration behind the reunion tour.
