Coyle broke the news to celebrity blogger Dean Piper at Elton John’s AIDS Foundation Oscar viewing party in LA. She told him:

“I know everyone’s been speculating about what we will do. It will be arena dates at the start of next year and we will have new music to go with it”

Coyle also spoke out about her fellow band mate Sarah Harding, who checked into rehab last year to treat depression and alcohol addiction. She said:

“I’ve been really worried about Sarah and I’m glad to see she’s getting better.”
