    Nadine Coyle has revealed the Girls Aloud split was nothing do do with her….

    Nadine Coyle has revealed she had 'no part' in the Girls Aloud split, insisting she tried to stop the band from separating.

    Just hours after it was announced they would part ways, the 27-year-old took to Twitter to voice her concerns, telling fans in a series of cryptic tweets that she 'couldn't stop' the decision, but wanted to 'keep going'.

    'You should know by now I had no part in any of this split business. I couldn't stop them,' Nadine Coyle wrote. 'I had the best time & want to keep going.'

    But it seems her fellow band members didn't share the same view.

    After a 20-gig reunion tour, Girls Aloud announced their split on Tuesday, with a message to fans on their official Twitter account.
