Hannah Spearritt only found out she had been dropped from S Club’s reunion tour when the band announced it in an online video. The 42 year old singer and actress expalined that the social media announcement came as she was still trying to process the death of her ‘best friend in the band’ and ex-boyfriend Paul Cattermole.
Paul died of natural causes in April at the age of 46 - just weeks after the band announced plans to celebrate their 25th anniversary as a group with a new tour starting in October. It was thought that Hannah had herself withdrawn from the run of shows after her bandmates - Rachel Stevens, Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Jo O'Meara and Bradley McIntosh - shared a video to social media announcing her absence.
"Although Hannah will always be a part of S Club, she won't be joining us on this tour," her emotional bandmates said. However, in an interview with The Times, Hannah has now opened up on how the video announcement came as a shock to her as she ‘had not been consulted on her exclusion and had no idea she had been dropped’.
Hannah said she had gone quiet in her communications with the band because, “I needed to be with my family and take the time to process [Paul’s] loss,” but had never said she did not want to be involved in the tour. Speaking of Paul, who she dated for five years until 2006, she said: “He was my best friend in the band.
Paul’s death, that was just a whole other level of trauma.” OK! has contacted S Club’s management team for a comment. In July this year, S Club - who enjoyed massive pop success as a seven-piece in the early 2000s - released a new single, These Are The Days, and also revealed they were renaming their 15 date reunion tour in honour of their late bandmate Paul.
