S Club 7 singer Paul Cattermole has died at age 46, two months after the ‘90s pop group announced their reunion tour.
“It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of our beloved son and brother Paul Cattermole,” the U.K. native’s family said in a statement on Friday, April 7, per the BBC. “Paul was found yesterday, 6th April 2023 at his home in Dorset and was pronounced dead later that afternoon.”
The statement continued: “Dorset Police has confirmed that there were no suspicious circumstances. Paul’s family, friends and fellow members of S Club request privacy at this time.” The cause of death is unknown.
S Club 7 — known for their late ‘90s and early ‘00s pop hits including “S Club Party,” “Never Had a Dream Come True” and more — paid tribute to Cattermole via Twitter on Friday.
