Sarah Harding, who died on Sunday, aged 39, revealed what she wanted her gravestone to read before she passed. 

In an extract from the Girls Aloud singer’s book ‘Hear Me Out,’ which was published in March 2021, she opened up about how she’d been debating what her epitaph should be.

As reported in the Mail Online, she wrote: “I’ve also thought about an epitaph for my grave. I’m thinking ‘FFS’ might be a good one.

“I keep thinking about funerals at the moment. It might sound morbid, but it’s hard not to at this stage – cemeteries, plots, burials, what kind of send-off I’d like and how it would all go.

“It’s probably been my most used phrase throughout this, with one crappy event following another. ‘For f***’s sake!”

Following the heartbreaking news of Harding’s death, the pop star’s mum, Marie, revealed the star’s final wish.

In a statement, she said that her daughter wouldn’t want to be remembered simply for her battle with cancer.

She said: “I know she won’t want to be remembered for her fight against this terrible disease – she was a bright shining star and I hope that’s how she can be remembered instead.”

Marie added: “I’d like to thank everyone for their kind support over the past year. It meant the world to Sarah and it gave her great strength and comfort to know she was loved.”
