The girl group, who are currently on hiatus, will get back together next year for a one-off concert and single release.

The reunion will include all five members: Nadine Coyle, Cheryl Cole, Sarah Harding, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh.

Their manager Hilary Shaw told The People: "Everybody wants them to make a comeback and it will be next year. Well, it is their 10th anniversary so there will be something.

"The girls are still getting on great, they speak all the time, and that includes Cheryl and Nadine with the other girls. Cheryl is keen to get back with the girls and is planning something which could be a one off or some gigs."

In recent years the band have been focussing on their own projects, with Cole achieving the most successful solo career.
