Nadine Coyle has finally shown up to support her friend and former Girls Aloud bandmate Cheryl, 39, in her West End play 2:22 A Ghost Story.

Cheryl's fellow Girls Aloud bandmates Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh, who said she was a "proud mother" after mentoring her friend, turned up to support her in the audience during the press night, but Nadine was noticeably absent.
As the singer watched her close pal in the audience this week instead, it was revealed that she was simply "too scared" to go at first, and couldn't bring herself to attend originally. "It’s a shame Nadine isn’t here," fellow West End actress Kimberley, who starred in Christmas favourite Elf on Tottenham Court Road, told The Mirror during the launch.
"She was supposed to be coming," she continued, but added that Nadine "really doesn’t like anything scary".

Instead, Nadine reportedly sent a good luck message to her long-time pal, and now we know she also rearranged to go and watch the show herself too.The star posted a snap of her waiting to go inside the Lyric Theatre in London on her Instagram stories ahead of Tuesday night's production. She also shared a clip of herself in the taxi on her way to the play, as she joked she was multitasking
