Hannah Spearritt has disclosed the reason behind her decision to withdraw from the S Club 7 reunion, which happened after Paul Cattermole's departure.

The 42-year-old vocalist departed from the tour of the recently reunited music group back in May, only a few weeks upon the tragic passing of her former partner and band member, Paul.

On April 6th, Paul was discovered deceased at his home in Dorset. He was 46 years old, and there were no indications of anything dubious surrounding his unexpected passing.

Hannah disclosed that the moment was not appropriate for her to join the band on tour.

During her appearance on Loose Women, she expressed that SClub would never be identical ever again. Sadly, she wasn't able to continue due to unfavorable circumstances at that time.

announcement last month. The former pop star shared that while she is still "incredibly fond" of her time in the band, she felt that the reunion was not the right option for her at this time. Hannah Spearritt has explained why she decided not to join the S Club 7 reunion after Paul Cattermole made public his departure last month. The ex-pop singer stated that although she still cherishes the memories of her days in the group, the reunion does not work for her right now.

On April 6, Paul was discovered lifeless in his residence in Dorset. He was 46 years old. There were no questionable actions or events leading up to his unexpected passing.

Rachel Stevens, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O'Meara, and Tina Barrett, who are all members of her band, started the S Club tour on October 12, 2023. This tour is a special tribute to Paul.

Before, Hanna confessed that she is unsure if she will have the opportunity to perform with S Club once more.

In an interview with The Sun, she stated: 'Is it possible that I'll ever perform with them again? I am uncertain. I am pleased that the tour is proceeding as planned and that the songs will continue to be enjoyed, but I am now focusing on the future instead of the past.'

She also disclosed that she had experienced overwhelming panic attacks prior to ending her tour whilst discussing the negative impact on her wellbeing at that time.

She continued to explain that her health was not at its finest because she possesses a weakened immune system and tension makes it deteriorate further.

I couldn't handle everything that was going on with my body. I wasn't acting like my usual self. I experienced intense panic attacks that left me unable to function normally. I also had severe dizziness and fatigue that persisted throughout the day.

Hannah mentioned that her health was impacting her little ones- Tea, who is four, and Tora, who is two, that she has with Adam Thomas. She shared that she didn't have enough energy to actively engage with her kids.

During her appearance on the show Loose Women, she stated that SClub would never return to how it was before. She mentioned that for her, it just wasn't the right time to carry on with the group. Sadly, things won't be the same as they were.

As she made her way to the ITV studios, Hannah's fashion sense was on point with a chic midi dress in a stunning shade of blue that hugged her curves perfectly.

She articulated that following the demise of Paul, she came to a realization that returning to S Club for the tour was infeasible, as she confessed, 'it simply didn't seem appropriate'.

Hannah expressed regret to S Club's supporters for her departure, however, she stated that she had to prioritize her own and her family's well-being.

Hannah declared that she hasn't communicated with her ex-bandmates since she parted ways with the band. She confessed to feeling dreary about it, but still maintained that she hopes they succeed.

Hannah is set to participate in Dancing On Ice, however, she recently mentioned something vague in relation to her past with her ex-bandmate from S Club, Rachael. Rumors have been circulating regarding a potential conflict between the two.

It is anticipated that Rachel, who is 45 years old, will be present in the TV show's audience to root for her partner, who is a professional skateboarder named Brendyn Hatfield.

Reportedly, the bosses are encountering obstacles on the filming location because of a disagreement between the ex-band members. Allegedly, Hannah is not communicating with the other S Club members since she left, causing some friction.

Hannah has added to the speculation about a conflict by making a mysterious remark regarding Rachel, who was a contestant on Dancing On Ice alongside Brendyn during the prior year, during the Thursday broadcast of Lorraine.

Hannah issued a mysterious statement regarding her previous colleague Rachael Stevens from the musical group S Club. This statement came as rumors surfaced about a dispute between the two individuals.

Rachel, aged 45, is presumed to be present in the Dancing On Ice show's viewership section while Hannah vies for victory to endorse her beau and seasoned ice skater, Brendyn Hatfield (both seen in the photo).

While rehearsing on the ice, Ria Hebden engaged in conversation with Hannah, inquiring about whether she sought any guidance from former Dancing On Ice participant Rachel prior to the show's premiere on January 14th.

Nonetheless, Hannah disregarded the comment and replied with: 'It might sound self-centered, but I'm putting all my attention on myself.'

Last year on the program, Rachel was teamed up with Brendyn, who is now her boyfriend. However, they were one of the initial duos to be eliminated and ceased competing during Week 4.

In November, she made their relationship public on Instagram and is anticipated to show her support for him in the audience as he partners with comedian Lou Sanders on the upcoming season of the skating program.
