Paul passed away five months before he was set to embark on S Club 7’s 25th anniversary reunion tour. He was a member of the English pop group formed in 1998 by Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller. The other members of the group included Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O’Meara, Hannah Spearritt, and Rachel Stevens. Their debut single, “Bring It All Back,” was one of their most popular songs. Paul left S Club 7 in March 2002 because he wanted “a change musically.”
Paul was never married, but he did date his bandmate Hannah Spearitt from 2001 to 2006. Hannah has dropped out of the S Club 7 anniversary tour in the wake of Paul’s death.
