The Girls Aloud singer was apparently spotted food shopping with a market stall-holder and part-time DJ - sparking rumours they might be dating, reports The Sun.

And a friend of the DJ said he was a huge fan of pop star Sarah before they had even met.

"He used to tear her pictures out of magazines. He has always fancied her and when he said he had actually pulled her we laughed. Then she turned up at his flat - no one could believe it," the pal is quoted as saying.

The blonde singer apparently met the DJ at London’s trendy Mahiki nightclub, where he has a regular slot on the decks.

The friend added that his pal is "very happy" about his blossoming friendship with stunning Sarah.


Is Sarah a single girl? - May 11 2007
Sarah Harding has split up with her journalist boyfriend, it seems.

The Girls Aloud star and gossip columnist Joe Mott have broken up because of her love of partying, according to The Sun.

A source said: "They were constantly bickering towards the end so it comes as no surprise that they decided to call it a day."

There were hints that all was not well when Joe wrote on his blog recently that his appetite for partying was on the wane.

"Been spending most of my evenings in," he said. "Often with Sarah, but not always. She’s still a lot more excited about big nights out than me, so we don’t tend to spend any time together outside of the flat. I need to be less lazy about making the effort and she needs to be less enthusiastic."

It seems his love of a quiet night in, and her desire to paint the town red has called time on their relationship.

Sarah still partying? - May 8 2007
Party girl Sarah Harding is apparently still hitting the town despite going to hospital last week with stomach pains, caused, it seems, by her hectic lifestyle.

The Girls Aloud star’s journalist boyfriend Joe Mott revealed that Sarah had been going out again in his blog, Closer reports.

He wrote: "Been spending most of my evenings in. Often with Sarah, but not always. She’s still a lot more excited about big nights out than me, so we don’t tend to spend any time together outside of the flat. I need to be less lazy about making the effort and she needs to be less enthusiastic."

Sarah was diagnosed with a stomach bug and warned by doctors to change her hectic lifestyle by drinking and working less.

But the singer went into rehearsals straight away for the band’s tour which starts next week.

Joe, who is currently appearing in ITV2’s Deadline, added that he was planning a holiday for the pair.

"In the process of booking us a two week holiday. Five days after I finish the show, she starts her tour, so we can’t manage it until June. Curses," he wrote.
