The songstress first joined the group, alongside original members Shaun Ryder, 62, and Bez, 60, and late bassist Paul Ryder in 1990, and appeared on top 5 track Step Up, as well as albums Pills 'n' Thrills and Bellyaches and Yes Please!. But her time in the band has not been plain sailing and a bitter feud resulted in her and frontman Shaun not speaking for a number of years, before finally burying the hatchet.
