Hannah Spearritt ‘is set for surprising career change after a series of setbacks’ following her ex Paul Cattermole’s death

Hannah Spearritt is reportedly set to move to Costa Rica to pursue a career in farming after a ‘series of setbacks’ following the death of Paul Cattermole.

The 43-year-old S Club 7 star visited the stunning venue in 2018 and the visit inspired her and her partner Adam Thomas to open a cafe in Twickenham in 2022.

However, the cafe was never ready to fully open and a friend told The sun that Hannah is selling her house because of rising costs.

The source said: ‘It is the latest in a series of setbacks. The new plan is to sell everything and move to Costa Rica to live off the land.’

Hannah and Adam, who have two daughters, Tea, five, and Tora, three, previously wanted to build a community in Central America.

She said The sun: ‘That’s the dream, to move to Costa Rica, buy some land or a farm and live a simple life with the girls.’

This came after Hannah’s ex-boyfriend and bandmate Paul tragically passed away in 2023.

Paul was found dead at his Dorset home on April 6, aged 46. There were no suspicious circumstances surrounding his sudden death.

Following his tragic death, Hannah pulled out of the S Club 7 reunion in May, saying it was ‘not the right time’ to tour with the band.

She told Loose Women: ‘S Club will never be the same again, unfortunately. It just wasn’t the right time for me to continue.’

Her bandmates Rachel Stevens, 45, Jon Lee, 41, Bradley McIntosh, 42, Jo O’Meara, 44, and Tina Barrett, 47, kicked off the S Club tour, which is dedicated to Paul, on October 12, 2023.

Hannah previously admitted that she doesn’t know if she will ever sing with S Club again.

She told The Sun: ‘Will I ever perform with them again? I just don’t know, I’m glad the tour is still going and the songs are going to live on, but now I’m looking forward, not back.’

She also revealed that she had suffered from “crippling panic attacks” before ending the tour and spoke about how bad her health was at the time.

“I wasn’t in the best of health, I have a weakened immune system and stress makes it worse,” she continued.

‘My body just couldn’t cope with everything that was happening. I wasn’t myself, I had these crippling panic attacks, suffered from really bad dizziness and was tired all the time.’

Hannah said her health also affected her children, as she had no energy to do anything with them.

She explained that after Paul’s death she realised she couldn’t tour with S Club anymore. ‘It just didn’t feel right,’ she admitted.

Hannah apologised to S Club fans for her decision to leave, but said she had to do what was best for herself and her family.

Hannah claimed she had lost contact with her former bandmates since leaving the band. She admitted she was sad that she no longer had that, but stressed that she wished them “all the best.”
