Rachel Stevens has spoken out about the rumours surrounding bandmates Hannah Spearritt and Paul Cattermole.
It was previously reported that Hannah had dumped her personal trainer fiancé Adam Thomas and rekindled her romance with Paul. (They have since been spotted kissing on the tube.)

Speaking about their friendship, Rachel told the Daily Mirror: “Hannah and Paul are so close, and they always have been.
“They’ve always got on so well, and always had that relationship and when we came back on tour, that just came back straight away.
“They always really just got on with each other right from the start, but this time around, I didn’t really think about it to be honest.”
Paul and Hannah dated back in the day.
The former Voice of Ireland judge added that she hopes Hannah, who has faced some criticism following the claims, is alright.
She said: “Bless her, I don’t really know what’s happening with all that but I do hope she’s okay.
“I try not to pay too much attention to that stuff, the negative stuff that is online, but it is there for all of us unfortunately. It is what it is.”
The couple are believed to have rekindled their romance.
