The 46-year-old was found dead at his home on April 6. It was later concluded that no suspicious circumstances were involved.

Last night, singers Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O'Meara and Rachel Stevens took to Instagram to share a pre-recorded video.

“Hey guys, sorry it’s been a while since you’ve heard from us. In all honesty, we’ve been in a bit of shock, and it’s taken us a while to find the right words to describe how we feel about losing our brother Paul,” began Jon.

Bradley then went on to pay tribute to their late friend. “Paul was a big brother to us, all of us, and even you guys out there. He truly was a unique specimen of a human being. No one could ever replace our Paul, but he lives on inside of each and every one of us,” he stated.

Jon continued by explaining the changes they have made to their reunion tour. “You’ll probably have noticed that there is only five of us here today,” he addressed, noting the absence of Hannah Spearritt. 

“Although Hannah will always be a part of S Club 7, she won’t be joining us on this tour, but we wish her all the best for the future,” he detailed. 

“However, the five of us are really excited and geared up to crack on. It’s going to be our tribute to Paul,” Jon confirmed, before sharing one final change to the tour. 

“So, we are actually renaming the tour ‘The Good Times Tour’, which is actually the song that Paul was going to sing,” he explained, before getting choked up.
