Liberty X assemble: Michelle Heaton leads former band mates Jessica Taylor and Kelli Young as they reunite to support Kevin Simm on The Voice UK



They split for good just under ten years ago.
But Noughties pop group Liberty X have defied the popband curse and stayed good friends with one another since their demise in 2007.
Michelle Heaton assembled her female former bandmates - Jessica Taylor and Kelli Young - as she led the mini reunion, without Tony Lundon, to support Kevin Simm on The Voice UK's first live show of the series on Saturday.

Michelle, Jessica and Kelli were the picture of happiness as they cosied up for selfies from their seats in the BBC studio, eagerly awaiting Kevin's performance.
The mother-of-two boasted about the meet-up on social media and shared sweet snapshots of the trio.
Kelli, 33, was flanked by pouting Jessica, 35, and 34-year-old Michelle in one photo, posted to her Instagram during the evening.

Another depicted the popstars smiling sweetly with their hair and make-up perfectly in place.
'Fabulous seats .. Just two hours to wait lol come on @Kevsimmx with my girls @KelliYoungX @JessicaLibertyX,' the Newcastle-born star captioned it.
All in all, the girls appeared thrilled to be having a long-overdue catch up with Jessica teasing the mini meet-up earlier in the week. 
 'Cannot WAIT to see my girls @KelliYoungX & @wonderwomanshel & the Simm family to scream our heads off for @Kevsimmx on The Voice! Pls vote,' she gushed on Twitter.
Promising debut: The 35-year-old's could win the show after being told, 'you have one of the best voices in the industry' by will.i.am

Paloma Faith added: 'I think he's adorable and I love him to bits. Without a doubt, like Will said, you've probably got one of the best voices in the country, not just this show'

However, her plea to the public for votes wasn't needed as Kevin, 35, sailed through to the Semi Final thanks to a Fast Pass from mentor Ricky Wilson.
The father-of-two was told 'you have one of the best voices in the industry', by will.i.am after belting out a near faultless version of Des'ree's Kissing You although his song choice was subject to criticism. 
'I think he's adorable and I love him to bits. Without a doubt, like Will said, you've probably got one of the best voices in the country, not just this show. I think that you can pick a much more powerhouse-y song next week and I can't wait. I don't think that song showed everything you're capable of,' Paloma Faith offered.
The Voice UK returns on Saturday 2 March on BBC One at 7pm
