revealed via social media that she is undergoing cancer treatment. Writing on Twitter, the 38-year-old told fans she was diagnosed with the disease earlier this year and had more recently received the devastating news this month that the cancer had spread from her breast to other parts of her body. ‘I'm currently undergoing weekly chemotherapy sessions and I am fighting as hard as I possibly can,’ she said.
The response from the Daily Mail online was this headline: ‘Britain’s most glamorous hell-raiser: How Girls Aloud’s ‘Hardcore Harding’ became famous for wild-partying, explosive love affairs and stints in rehab – but now faces a battle against cancer’. The piece detailed how Sarah had been such a party girl during the Noughties that she’d been dubbed ‘Hardcore Harding’, and was well known on London’s ‘party-scene’ for her drinking.
That this damning article should appear just hours after Sarah had revealed she was having weekly cancer treatment demonstrates just how richly judgemental our society can be of women for anything - even having cancer.
Sarah is well aware of the life she has led, and how hard it has been. She has battled mental health issues and addiction issues in the public eye, and now she is getting herself through chemotherapy. The best thing people can do is wish her well, not sift through her life - whether it's her romantic history, feuds with former Girls Aloud members or pull up old photos of Sarah holding a wine glass.
If you’re lucky enough not to have been affected by cancer, you won’t know the depths of worry and terror that someone faces on that journey. Sarah will undoubtedly be asking, ‘Why me?’, but hopefully will have the information and reassurance that she needs not just to understand that it can happen to anyone but to face what's happening to her head on.
