NINETIES girl band Eternal show off their new line-up as they gear up for a sensational comeback - without Louise Redknapp.
Sisters Easther and Vernie Bennett have welcomed singer Christel Lakhdar, who said it was a "dream come true to join the group.
The new-look band - which also does not feature former member Kelle Bryan comes after a bitter row over transgender issues in which Louise was accused of breaching the confidence of the founding members by leaking and misrepresenting the content of a private email.
A source close to the band said: "That's very much all in the past and the girls just cannot wait to get back on stage.
"They are eternally grateful for all the support they've received." Vernie has not commented on the controversy and said the new line-up will take the group to the "next level".
She said: "Meeting Christel for the first time just felt right.
"She's talented, accomplished and has such an amazing personality.
