Well, it worked a treat for Adele… Following a recent, tumultuous bout of heartache, rehab and hotel bust-ups, Sarah Harding has decided to put her misery to good use – and write about it.

The singer, 30, has been penning material for her debut solo album, which is due for release late summer.

Venting frustration at her failed relationship with ex-fiance Tom Crane, and her experiences in rehab, Sarah has already written enough tracks to warrant interest from three different record labels, including the behemoth that is Universal.

It is understood the newly single star is also keen to co-write new tracks for the widely hyped Girls Aloud reunion later this year.

I’m told: “Sarah’s been jotting down lyrics and writing songs for the past few months.

“After the year from hell in 2011, she is now desperate just to get back to her first love – music. She’s had a few meetings and is getting a lot of interest from labels but hasn’t decided which one to go with yet.

“As well as writing about the breakdown of her relationship with Tom, she has detailed her time in therapy, and been pretty explicit about her battles with booze.

“There is some very raw, heartfelt stuff – not the kind of thing people will be expecting. Sarah’s had some pretty wild experiences and wants the album to reflect this.”

Of course, the blonde singer won’t be the first member of Girls Aloud to go it alone. In fact, she’s the last of the quintet to break free.

And while Nadine Coyle’s foray into pop stardom was hardly Madonna-esque, Cheryl Cole and Nicola Roberts both secured critically acclaimed and commercial success. Even Kimberley Walsh’s debut effort with Aggro Santos was no disgrace.

As always until this is officially announced please don’t believe it. We would all love it to be true, a solo Sarah album would be amazing <3

AS well as planning her wedding, Sarah Harding is also cracking on with her first solo album.

Sarah, 29, is working with Roger Sanchez, who says: “The idea is to have her on my album and we’ll have a track out together before her material.”

Roger, whose 2Gether single with Far East Movement is out on Sunday, adds: “She’s a real sweetheart.”

She’s spoken for, mate.

The dance whiz has written a track with McFly’s Danny Jones, 24, for the Girls Aloud singer’s solo LP.

Roger, 43, said: “Danny is a funky fella. He loves dance and I love pop so we wrote a song for Sarah.

“I’d love to bring them on stage with me at the festivals this summer or when I do my Ministry Of Sound gig in March.”

Sarah, 29, right, is in the video to Roger’s collaboration with Far East Movement on the single 2Gether, out on March 20.

He added: “I will be working with Sarah more for her album. I always loved the vibe of Girls Aloud but she is a solid star in her own right.”

Sarah Harding is releasing her debut solo album next year, according to reports.

The Girls Aloud singer, who has starred in a number of films since the band called a hiatus, is said to be working on a set of ‘edgy’ songs similar to Lady GaGa’s sound.

“She’s been laying down a load of tracks that are very ‘Lady GaGa’ [in] style. She’s working her arse off,” a source told Dean Piper.

“She’s hoping to release the album early next year and is going to have an entire style makeover for her solo launch. She wants to be edgier than ever before and has already been consulting with her stylist about some ideas she has for some custom-made outfits.

“She’s very keen to shock and be totally different from how she was in Girls Aloud. She wants to shake up her entire image and become an icon like GaGa.”

It was recently reported that Harding was penning  a number of tracks with Bodyrox singer-songwriter Luciana.

While gossiping with us at V Festival, our fave singer, 28, revealed: “I missed the first day of V as I was stuck in the studio recording all day. I can’t tell you why yet, sorry girls, but I’m really excited about it.”

Whispers about her starring in the new X-Men film are getting stronger and while cuddling up to fella Tom Crane she said she’d “love to star in more films.

SARAH Harding’s fella, DJ Tom Crane, has been banned from talking about poorly pal Cheryl Cole.

Chatting at the Mahiki Swimwear launch, Tom, 30, right, said: “I always get told off for blabbing.”

However, he did reveal: “I’m really missing Sarah. I’ve been in Ibiza loads and she’s busy recording in the studio.”

Is Miss Harding working on a solo album?
