EXCLUSIVE: S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt has finally made amends with bandmate and former boyfriend Paul Cattermole after seven-year feud ahead of group’s reunion tour
S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt has finally ended her feud with bandmate and ex-boyfriend Paul Cattermole, MailOnline can reveal.
The former couple, who first dated back in 2001, secretly met for a coffee in January where they agreed to put the past behind them ahead of the upcoming reunion tour, which is to mark the group’s 25-year anniversary.
Hannah, 41, and Paul, 46, were in a relationship for five years before splitting in 2006, rekindling their romance for the last time in 2015.
But the exes struggled to see eye to eye over the years after Paul accused Hannah of ‘replacing’ him with Primeval actor Andrew-Lee Potts, who she dated while starring in the drama.
Paul also claimed to suffer loss of earnings after becoming the first member of S Club to leave the band in 2002, and said he felt Hannah ‘prioritised her career’ over their relationship.

Fans of the group will not only remember S Club for their music after the band including Rachel Stevens, 44, Tina Barrett, 46, Jon Lee, 40, Bradley McIntosh, 41, and Jo O’Meara, 43, also starred in their very own BBC series Miami 7 and LA 7.
Hannah and Paul’s friendship predates the creation of the noughties group after they became friends in their teens at the National Youth Music Theatre.
They first kept their romance private with Paul later revealing he would sneak to and from Hannah’s house in the early hours of the morning to avoid being spotted by fans.

The S Club 7 reunion tour has been masterminded by music mogul Simon Fuller, who originally put them together in 1998, after the Spice Girls, his previous band, sacked him as their manager.
Reuniting for the 25th anniversary tour will reportedly be lucrative for Simon as well as the band, who have all gone in different directions since their split in 2003.
Rachel Stevens went onto have a solo music career and came runner up on Strictly Come Dancing in 2008.
Hannah, who’s a mum to daughters Tora and Taya, enjoyed an acting career, performing on the likes of BBC One soap Eastenders and Brit drama Primeval.
