According to reports today, former Sugababes member Jade Ewen has been declared bankrupt.

The Sun has reported that Jade’s debt amounts to thousands after a number of solo projects fell flat.

A source close to the singer spoke to the publication: “Jade put her all into her music but sadly things simply haven’t gone well”.

“She joined the Sugababes full of optimism and had high hopes given the band were very much established in the charts. But it seems she fell victim to their shelf life expiring”.

Jade has not yet commented on the speculation but she revealed via Twitter that she is currently trying her hand at a spot of acting, working alongside Stephen Seagal.

Sugababes split up in 2013 with Jade, Heidi Range and Amelle Berrabah saying that things “had fizzled” out.

The girl band has had a rocky past and by the time the Sugababes called it a day, all of the original members, Keisha Buchanan, Mutya Buena and Siobhan Donaghy had left.

Keisha, Mutya and Siobhán have since formed a new group named MKS.
