Cheryl Fernandez-Versini has opened up about her friendship with Kimberley Walsh ahead of the singer’s wedding.

Fernandez-Versini, 32, will be one of eight bridesmaids for Walsh when she says ‘I do’ to her boyfriend of 13 years, Justin Scott later this month.

Speaking about her former Girls Aloud band mate she told Hello!: "Kimberley is just the best friend you could wish for.

Nicola Roberts 30th Birthday Party

1/11

The X Factor judge - who has been plagued by reports of a divorce from her husband of 18 months Jean-Bernard - stepped out with Nicola Roberts on Friday night for Walsh's hen party at The Cuckoo Club.

The girls sipped on cocktails served by butlers in animal masks and played games to see how much they new about the bride and groom to be.

Speaking about the big day, Walsh said that she is scared that she will be unable to stop "sobbing".

"I used to be good at keeping up an icy exterior but since I had Bobby, I'm so much more emotional," she told the magazine.

"I'm slightly worried about the wedding to be honest. A few happy tears are fine, but I don’t want to spend the whole day sobbing, so I’m going to have to be careful about even looking at Cheryl and my sisters, because they'll definitely cry and that will set me off."
