Peter Andre remembers Sarah Harding one year after death: She was very loved

Peter Andre has paid tribute to his friend Sarah Harding as a year has passed since the Girls Aloud singer's tragic death after a battle with breast cancer.

The 39 year old announced she had been diagnosed with the disease in 2020, with Peter sending her support at the time.

She sadly passed away on on 5 September 2021, with a whole host of celebrities paying tribute to the star.

One year after Sarah's passing, Peter has written exclusively in his column: "This week marks one year since the passing of Sarah Harding.

"It was such a shock when Sarah died, but what I love about the Great British public is that when a terrible situation like this happens and someone so loved passes, people put all their love and support behind the family.

"Sarah was a very loved person, she will never be forgotten. I hope her family have been able to in some way come to terms with their loss. It’s such a terrible thing to have happened to someone so young."

Sarah was close friends with Peter's ex-wife Katie Price with the late singer being bridesmaid at former glamour model Katie's wedding to Peter in 2005.

Katie's collection of bridesmaids had a girlband theme, with Liberty X's Michelle Heaton, Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona, and of course, Sarah doing the honours.

The star-studded wedding had plenty of celeb guests in attendance, including Charlotte Church, Jennifer Allison, Wayne and Coleen Rooney and Paul Gascoigne.

Sarah's mum, Marie, announced her death in a heartbreaking statement last year, which read: "It’s with deep heartbreak that today I’m sharing the news that my beautiful daughter Sarah has sadly passed away.

"Many of you will know of Sarah’s battle with cancer and that she fought so strongly from her diagnosis until her last day.

"She slipped away peacefully this morning. I’d like to thank everyone for their kind support over the past year.

"It meant the world to Sarah and it gave her great strength and comfort to know she was loved.

"I know she won’t want to be remembered for her fight against this terrible disease – she was a bright shining star and I hope that’s how she can be remembered instead."
