S Club 7: Where Are They Now? See What the ‘90s British Band Members Are Doing Now

Ain’t no party like an S Club party! The British band S Club 7 launched to super stardom in the late ‘90s — and they are still making sweet music. In 1998, the group, made up of Rachel Stevens, Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Jo O’Meara, Hannah Spearritt, Bradley McIntosh and the late Paul Cattermole, was formed in London. Their fame grew almost overnight after they starred on the BBC sitcom Miami 7. Season 1 of the series, which was later renamed S Club 7 in Miami for American audiences on Fox Family and later ABC Family, aired from 1999 to 2000. The squad continued their TV adventures for three more seasons, all of which were set up as mini-series with their own titles. S Club 7 in L.A. premiered in 2000 and the following year, Hollywood 7 aired. The final season, Viva S Club, filmed in Spain and dropped in 2002. As the band was taking over TV screens in the U.K. — and later the U.S. and 99 other countries where the show aired — their music was continuing to make a splash worldwide. S Club 7 released its debut single, “Bring It All Back,” from their first record, S Club 7, in June 1999. The track, which was also the show’s theme song, reached No. 1 on the U.K. singles charts and was later certified Platinum. The overwhelming response to the song catapulted the group’s success and led to a deal with Hasbro to create singing dolls of each member and an official magazine for the group was published. [sendtonews type="float" key="uzOpnfdMgl-2829036-14453"] The hits just kept on coming with 1999’s “S Club Party,” “Two in a Million” and “You’re My Number One.” The seven singers recorded and released three albums from 1999 to 2001. In 2002, Cattermole left the group despite having a good relationship with his bandmates. Shortly after his departure, the band changed their name to S Club and released their fourth and final album, Seeing Double. The remaining six members parted ways in summer 2003 following their second tour. More than a decade later, the whole group reunited in November 2014 for a charity event. They performed as part of the BBC's Children in Need benefit show. Nearly 10 more years passed before S Club 7 announced in February 2023 that they were officially getting back together for a U.K. tour. The October 2023 shows will celebrate 25 years since the group first formed. Two months after the tour announcement, the band was struck by tragedy when Cattermole died at age 46. “We are truly devastated by the passing of our brother Paul. There are no words to describe the deep sadness and loss we all feel. We were so lucky to have had him in our lives and are thankful for the amazing memories we have,” the group wrote via Instagram in April 2023 after news broke that the musician was found dead in his home in Dorset, England. “He will be so deeply missed by each and every one of us. We ask that you respect the privacy of his family and of the band at this time.” Scroll down to see what the S Club 7 singers have been doing over the past three decades:

Hannah Spearritt

Spearritt pivoted to a career in acting after S Club 7 disbanded. She appeared in 2004’s Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London before landing the role of Abby Maitland on Primeval from 2007 to 2011. She has since appeared in The Goob, Utopia and a few episodes of Casualty and EastEnders.

The England native dated S Club 7 bandmate Cattermole from 2001 to 2006. She moved on with Andrew-Lee Potts, whom she met while working on Primeval. The twosome broke off their engagement in 2013 after dating seven years. Spearritt welcomed her first child, a daughter, in December 2018 with boyfriend Adam Thomas. Two years later, the pair welcomed their second daughter. The couple are planning to open their own café called Earth & Fire.

The Hammersmith, London, native took a nine-year hiatus from music after S Club 7’s initial breakup. She released her first solo track, “Fire,” in May 2012. Two years later, she reunited with O’Meara, McIntosh and Cattermole in the spinoff group S Club 3. She has remained a part of the band — now called S Club Allstars — ever since.

The singer later apologized for her actions and tried to rebuild her career. O’Meara formed S Club 3 — which was later changed to S Club Allstars — with McIntosh and Cattermole in 2008. She left the spinoff group in 2020. The following year, she released her second solo album, With Love, in August 2021.

Paul Cattermole

While Cattermole left the group in 2002, he kept performing. In June of that year, he reunited with his school band, Skua, but the group disbanded in 2003. The England native then reconnected with a few S Club 7 bandmates in 2008 to form S Club 3 but left once again in 2014. At that time, Cattermole got Skua back together to release their debut album, Kneel. The following year, the musician starred in The Rocky Horror Show theater production.

Cattermole, who dated Spearritt from 2001 to 2006, was set to tour with S Club 7 in October 2023 before his untimely death in April 2023. He was 46.
