it was announced that the S Club tour would still go ahead, but that – following the change in circumstances – Spearritt had opted not to take part. Those shows are now due to take place this autumn and the five remaining members of the group released a new track last week.However, with that new track released, The Sun then reported that Spearritt never formally opted out of the reunion tour and was “blindsided” when her former bandmates made the announcement that they would be doing the shows without her.Talks then reportedly followed to try to get Spearritt on board for the shows after all but – says one of those pesky sources – by that point “bad blood” between her and the rest of the group made the chances of that happening rather slim.Says the source to The Sun: “Hannah is devastated.

S Club have responded to the “nonsense” claims that Hannah Spearritt was shut out from the upcoming reunion tour.Earlier this year, the pop group revealed they would be reforming and releasing new music for the first time in 20 years. All seven original members – consisting of Tina Barrett, Paul Cattermole, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O’Meara, Spearritt and Rachel Stevens – were set to embark on a 25th anniversary UK and Ireland arena tour in October.However, following the death of Cattermole in April, it was announced that Spearitt would not be a part of the newly renamed ‘Good Times Tour’.“You’ve probably noticed that there’s only five of us here today, and although Hannah will always be part of S Club 7 she won’t be joining us on this tour,” Lee said in an Instagram video.A post shared by S Club (@sclub)The remaining five members – now named S Club – are set to continue with the the sold-out tour, with Lee sharing that Spearritt was “always welcome” to rejoin them.According to The Sun, an anonymous source shared that Spearritt told her close friends that she was “blindsided” by the video announcement that was posted to the S Club social media accounts.In an interview on Monday (July 31) with ITV’s daytime show This Morning, S Club addressed the reports from the anonymous source.“Whenever an article starts with ‘a source said’, you can kind of take it with a pinch of salt,” Lee said.

This Morning host Josie Gibson became emotional when discussing S Club’s Paul Cattermole with his former bandmates on the show, as they shared how their upcoming tour will honour him. Paul died in April at the age of 46 due to “multiple heart issues”, just weeks after the band announced touring plans to celebrate their 25th anniversary as a group.

This Morning viewers were left taken aback as S Club were faced having to address the 'elephant in the room' after being put on the spot during their latest TV appearance. The pop group appeared on the ITV daytime show on Monday (July 31) to chat to hosts Craig Doyle and Josie Gibson.

S Club member Hannah Spearritt has reportedly been snubbed from the highly-anticipated reunion tour and left "devastated" as her bandmates have been ordered not to speak to her directly, according to sources claiming to have inside knowledge.
