Walsh: 'I can't imagine life without Cole'

Kimberley Walsh has revealed that she cannot imagine her life without Girls Aloud bandmate Cheryl Cole.

The singer said she provides a shoulder to cry on when Cole is upset about her recent marriage troubles with husband Ashley.

She told Hello!: "We share everything with each other. She's the person I talk to during difficult times and I'm the one she talks to when she's having problems. We're really, really close.

"Over the years we've become better and better friends - to the point where it's hard to imagine her not being a part of my life."

Cole recently said her life would be "worthless" without her bandmates.
