Hannah Spearritt had to move into an office after losing her house.
S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt ended up living in an office
The 41-year-old star – who has daughters Tea, four, and two-year-old Tora with fitness instructor Adam Thomas – shot to fame as part of 1990s pop group S Club 7 alongside Bradley McIntosh, Jo O’Meara, Jon Lee, Paul Cattermole, Rachel Stevens, and Tina Barrett but is now preparing to open a holistic cafe in West London and had to use the empty premises as a storage space when her landlord sold her rented home at short notice and briefly used a friend’s office as a living room.

She told The Sun: “We were not on a good wage compared to the money being made. People think we must all be millionaires but sadly it’s just not true. It was what it was and we enjoyed ourselves at the time.”
Meanwhile, Hannah – whose business venture has suffered setbacks because of “personal reasons” but is due to open the cafe this summer – last reunited with S Club 7 for an arena tour in 2015 and while she is looking forward to the future, she is yet to officially sign up for another series of shows with her bandmates and is hesitant because she doesn’t want to be “paid a pittance.”
She said: “At the moment it’s S Club 6. It hasn’t got the same ring to it has it but I’m going…
