Born March 7, 1977 in St Albans, Hertfordshire, Cattermole grew up performing in youth choirs and studied theater before auditioning for S Club 7 and earning a spot in the group upon its formation in 1999.
Alongside fellow members Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O’Meara, Hannah Spearritt and Rachel Stevens, Cattermole achieved fast success with S Club 7 upon the group’s debut.
Their first single “Bring It All Back” reached No. 1 in the United Kingdom, and all of the 12 songs commercially released afterward throughout their four studio albums and a greatest hits project charted top 5 in the country.

The tour announcement was especially notable, asDaily Mailreported that Cattermole and Spearritt, 41, had finally ended a years-long feudfollowing the end of their romantic relationship. The pair first dated from 2001 through 2006 and later got back together for a short period of time in 2015.
