Early career

Nadine Coyle, also known as Nadz or Diney, first found fame in 2001 when, while still at Thornhill College, Derry, she entered the Irish version of the talent show Popstars. As one of the winners of the show, Coyle was selected to become a member of the band Six. Shortly after the band was formed, the bandmates moved into a house together and all were interviewed on camera. Coyle gave a string of information about herself, but then stopped suddenly and whispered "What date of birth did I give...?". She initially maintained that she had simply made a mistake when stating her birthday, but later broke down off camera and admitted that she had lied about her age, and was in fact only 16 years old. Thornhill College is the major Roman Catholic girls grammar school in Derry, Northern Ireland on the northern coast of the island of Ireland Famous alumni include Dana Rosemary Scallon. ...

As the minimum age stipulated by the producers was 18, she had to be dropped from the band and returned to her secondary grammar school in Derry called Thornhill. Six's first single "Whole Lot Of Loving" became the fastest-selling single in Irish history. Their second Irish single was "Let Me Be The One", which was released after receiving a successful reaction when they supported Westlife. But, after a failed attempt to break the UK, Six's official site disappeared and the group soon vanished from the pop scene. This article is about the band. ...


Girls Aloud

Main article: Girls Aloud

In 2002 Coyle returned to enter the UK talent show Popstars: The Rivals. As she pulled through the first few rounds her very first fansite opened, and soon she was on the way to the final night. She polled the third-highest number of votes in the final, and was chosen to join the band Girls Aloud, much to the delight of friend and new bandmate Kimberley Walsh. During the series she had been a hot favourite to make the band, especially after a stunning rendition of "Fields of Gold", which many believe was the performance of the series. She also sang "Show Me Heaven", "When I Fall In Love" and "I Wanna Dance With Somebody", regularly receiving some of the highest vote tallies. When asked to name a highlight from the show, presenter Davina McCall simply answered "Nadine".

Before hitting the big time, Nadine recorded a demo CD which was distributed to Louis Walsh (now co-manager of Girls Aloud) and The Late Late Show. This included "Fields of gold", as well as "Somewhere Over The Rainbow", "Love Is" and "Summertime".

Relationship with Jesse Metcalfe

During Girls Aloud's promotional tour of Australia and New Zealand in February 2006, Coyle met Desperate Housewives actor Jesse Metcalfe, and rumours of a relationship started, which Nadine initially denied. Despite this, there had been pictures in the tabloids of Nadine and Jesse together, and numerous reports of them on dates together in London. Media:Example. ...

It was eventually confirmed that Nadine and Jesse were a couple, with the pair appearing in OK! Magazine to clear up false rumours about their relationship. This was a one-off for Nadine who usually likes to keep her personal life out of the public domain. When they were together, tabloids were rife with 'news' about Jesse's affairs.


On November 16, 2006 it was reported the couple had split up - with the end of the relationship being confirmed by Nadine's father.[3] However, on November 28, 2006, New! magazine released pictures suggesting that Nadine and Jesse were back together.

Nadine had been frequently visiting L.A. since dating Jesse sparking rumours that, not only are the pair looking for a home and getting engaged, but also that she is set to launch a solo career. This was denied by the singer who is quoted as saying "who in their right mind would leave Britain's biggest girl group?"

Year 2007 (MMVII) is the current year, a common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar and the AD/CE era. ...


On 21 April 2007 it was reported that Nadine had dumped Jesse Metcalfe, as days after entering rehab he was seen holding hands and hugging an unknown girl, while Nadine was shooting scenes for a cameo in a film with her band mates.[6] It was later exposed that Coyle had not dumped Metcalfe due to his apparent infidelity, but because of his many drunken rages and jealousy, due to the fact that she was more famous than he was.

In early July, Metcalfe pleaded to be taken back by Coyle. In an interview with the Sunday Mirror he stated that "I have to persuade her that I didn't cheat on her" and "Please write that I was always faithful to her and never cheated. Those girls that I was photographed with meant nothing to me. I would never betray Nadine. I still love her and it is my dream that we get back together soon." He also stated that he was "empty and low" after their breakup. [8] Alternate newspaper: The Daily Mirror (Australia) The Daily Mirror is a popular British tabloid daily newspaper. ...


Later in July, Coyle insisted that Metcalfe had never been unfaithful to her. She stated that at the time the pictures of Jesse and other women were circulating, they had already split up. She stated that the reason for their report was that Jesse was having a hard time, and she couldn't be there for him, when he needed her, due to her commitments with the band.[9] On 11 August 2007, there were reports that Metcalfe and Coyle had reestablished their relationship, after being spotted in a restaurant together and then driving off together in Metcalfe's car. [10] This came just a few days after it was reported that Coyle had found a new boyfriend in Brothers and Sisters actor Dave Annable.

It was later reported in early August that Coyle had been seen kissing Metcalfe [12]. The confirmation that the couple were back together, came from Coyle's band mate Nicola Roberts, who stated to Closer magazine "They're together and seeing how it goes." "It could work out and it could not."[13] Nicola Maria Roberts (born October 5, 1985 in Runcorn, Cheshire), is an English pop singer and one fifth of British girl group Girls Aloud. ...

Coyle later revealed that herself and Metcalfe had not re-established their relationship, claiming she was in Los Angeles for her sister's wedding, and met up with Metcalfe as they had not seen each other for a long time, and remain friends.
