Former S Club 7 star Jo O’Meara is back with a new album – 18 years after the 90s pop group split.
The singer, 42, has just released With Love, her first music in 16 years.
Earlier this week, Jo made an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine and viewers couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw her new look, with many branding her “unrecognisable”.
And because there ain’t no party like an S Club party, Daily Star reaches for the stars to see where Jo and the rest of the sunny septet are now – and it’s safe to say success hasn’t followed all of them.

Considered the band’s strongest singer, Jo launched a solo career after S Club split in 2003.
But in 2007 she appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, and along with Jade Goody and Danielle Lloyd, was accused of bullying Shilpa Shetty.
Jo – who has a 13-year-old son – has quit smoking and booze and now lives a healthier life as she relaunches her music career.
Paul Cattermole
Band heartthrob Paul left S Club the year before they broke up.
He went on to form a metal band with his school friends before getting back with Jo and Bradley to form S Club 3.
But he was later declared bankrupt and in 2018 flogged his BRIT award on eBay for £60,000, saying: “There’s bills to pay.”
The following year Paul, now 44, appeared on First Dates Hotel – not the celeb version though – but failed to find romance.
Rachel Stevens
Everyone fancied Rachel and once S Club was over, she bagged herself a big-money album and a No2 hit with Sweet Dreams My LA Ex.
In 2008 she did Strictly and has also judged on shows including The Voice of Ireland.
Now 43, Rachel, whose exes include Holby City star Jeremy Edwards, is now married with two daughters and appeared on Celebrity MasterChef in 2017.
Bradley McIntosh
Post S Club, Bradley struggled to get signed by a record label and ended up on reality show Totally Boyband which put members of disbanded groups together.
The result – Upper Street – only released one single which flopped before they split.
Since 2008 Bradley, now 40 and a dad of one, has performed with Jo and Paul as S Club 3.
He also reunited with Tina to perform S Club hits at festivals this summer.
Hannah Spearritt
Bubbly Hannah launched a film and TV career, appearing in Agent Cody Banks 2 and ITV’s dinosaur series Primeval.
Having previously dated fellow S Clubber Paul, she got together with Primeval co-star Andrew Potts-Lee and they were engaged between 2008 and 2013
Hannah, 40, went on to have parts in Casualty as Mercedes Christie and EastEnders as Karen Taylor’s sister Kandice.
She is dating nutritionist Adam Thomas and the pair have two daughters.
Jon Lee
Post S Club, Jon went back to his musical theatre roots, starring in Les Miserables among other roles including panto.
He also starred in one episode of Casualty.
Jon released a solo album – Fallen Angel – in March 2013 and the single My Father’s Son.
In 2010 Jon, 39, came out as gay and like Paul attempted to find love on a reality show, appearing on Celebrity Dinner Date in 2018.
Tina Barrett
Now 44, Tina struggled to find solo success after S Club and took a nine-year career break.
She revealed she was going to release an album in 2013 but it failed to materialise.
Tina dated Paul Cashmore, who has appeared on Channel 4’s Hunted, and the pair had a baby boy in 2016 but broke up in 2019.
He is now dating fellow hunter Jill.
