Needless to say the announcement of S Club's pending split has been followed up with solo career speculation. Rachel Stevens has told reporters she would "love to go solo" while Jo O'Meara told GMTV that she won't let her debilitating back condition get in the way of her new music.
Hannah Spearritt has expressed an interest in acting, Tina Barrett is interested in music, writing and acting, Bradley Mcintosh plans to concentrate on publishing and songwriting while Jon Lee says he has his eye on a career in the theatre.
The former S Club members may well need to find another career because reports suggest that, despite selling 10 million albums and appearing in various TV series and a film, their contracts mean they will each net about £500,000 for their time in the band. There manager, one Simon Fuller, is reported to have made considerably more out of the whole venture.
