Hannah Spearritt of Club 7 says she and her family had to move into an office over Christmas and New Year after being forced from their home by a landlord.
The well-known 90s pop star said she had been living in four temporary homes for the past six months, adding, “it was stressful, but you deal with it”.
In an interview with The sunSpearritt said that the public perception of her and fellow band members as “millionaires” was “just not true”.
Speaking of her time spent between permanent living spaces, she said: “Our landlord needed the money and the property sold so quickly. We ended up with less than two days to leave.
“What bothered us was that we didn’t have time to find another place. We had somewhere over Christmas but ran out of time before we could move in. It was only a few weeks.
“We were allowed to stay in our friend’s office. We just used it as our living room.
“It was extra space. It was stressful, but you deal with it, don’t you? Especially with the kids.”

She added: “People think we should all be millionaires but unfortunately it’s just not true. It was what it was and we were enjoying ourselves at the time.”
Spearritt also told The Sun that she had fallen ill which had left her bedridden, while her and her partner’s new café venture had also stalled.
S Club 7 was formed in 1998 and consisted of Spearritt, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O’Meara, Jon Lee, Paul Cattermole, Rachel Stevens and Tina Barrett.
Their hits were Don’t Stop Movin’, Bring It All Back and Never Had A Dream Come True.
Spearritt is the only original group member not signed up for S Club’s reunion performances, including shows at London’s O2 Arenathis fall.
She told The Sun that there was still a chance she could join her bandmates for the comeback shows, but that it depended on her health.
