Sugababes legend says it's 'unlikey' she'll ever rejoin group despite pressure

Heidi Range has ruled out ever performing with her Sugababes bandmates – despite fans being keen for it.

The Liverpudlian beauty joined the chart-topping group in 2001 following the departure of Siobhán Donaghy.

However, the group which then consisted of Jade Ewen, Range and Amelle Berrabah announced an indefinite hiatus in 2011 – despite claims of new music being ready.

Following a battle to regain the Sugababes name, original members, Donaghy, Keisha Buchanan and Mutya Buena reformed filly in 2019 but fans have been calling for Heidi to join them for a performance.

Discussing a possible reunion, Heidi told the Mirror: "I don't know, I'd never say never.

"I don't know if that's likely to happen."

But while she isn't considering stepping back into her Red Dress, she has also ruled out any possibility of solo material.

"I'm not thinking of doing solo music, no," she stated.

Nowadays, Heidi who has partnered with Omaze and the NSPCC is a stay-at-home mum which was a "dream come true" after living her dream career of being a singer.

Former member Berrabah previously said that all six members of the group "talk about" joining forces for a performance, adding to RTE: "We've spoken about and it comes up now and again."

She went on to state that it was a "matter of when people are free," before telling the Official Charts Company that they had been approached with the hopes of touring with one another.

Discussing the NSPCC and Omzae Million Pound House Draw, the star said: "It's a privilege to be asked to get involved with it.

"I'm a mother of two little girls and I'm really passionate about the Speak Out Stay Safe programme."

Those who enter the competition are in with the chance to win a lavish £3m house in the Cotswolds with a heated pool.

Over the past year, Heidi has worked as an ambassador for the NSPCC and revealed she was shocked after discovering that half a million children in the UK suffer abuse on a yearly basis.

"It blows my mind and breaks my heart," she said before adding: "The fact there's a charity out there like the NSPCC and Childline, where children can reach out and have a voice.

"That's what they're doing in schools, they're empowering children and educating them to know if something doesn't feel right, you've got someone to reach out to.

"Children need that, they need to know they've got the right to be safe."

The singer and NSPCC Campaigner, Heidi Range is promoting the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, Cotswolds - a new prize draw raising vital funds and awareness for the NSPCC’s programme - which educates school children about abuse and empowers them to speak out, if they feel anything is wrong.
