Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding is furthering her acting career as she joins the cast of Run for Your Wife.
Update (4/8/'11):
Writer/Director Ray Cooney, speaking to RTÉ TEN, is very excited at having Harding on board saying: "I hadn’t heard of Girls Aloud but when I met Sarah I knew she was a ‘natural’. I was surprised by her acting talent and her terrific personality. She is absolutely right for the role of Steffanie, one of the two wives in Run For Your Wife. She’s also the most lovely lady to work with."

Following on from her part in 2009's St Trinian's II: The Legend of Fritton's Gold, Harding is moving up to a bigger role in Tom Cooney's adaptation of his stage play.
She joins Danny Dyer, Denise Van Outen and Neil Morrissey in the comedy, which begins filming this month.
The film follows Dyer's character John Smith as he attempts to prevent his two wives Stephanie and Michelle, played by Harding and Van Outen respectively, from finding out about each other. Smith is aided by his gullible neighbour Gary, played by Men Behaving Badly star Neil Morrissey.
Harding seems to be getting on well with the rest of the cast with Van Outen tweeting: "First meet with the Run for Your Wife movie team today. Loving Danny Dyer and Sarah Harding. Think we will have fun" after their first get together.
Run for Your Wife is expected to include over 80 cameos from stars such as: Cliff Richard, Rolf Harris, Ray Winstone, June Whitfield and Prunella Scales.
The cameo stars will not be paid for their appearances, instead a small donation will be made in their name to the theatre charities of their choice.
