Their 1997 song 5,6,7,8 quickly made Claire Richards, 43, Lee Latchford-Evans, 45, Lisa Scott-Lee, 45, Ian ‘H’ Watkins, 44, and Faye Tozer, 45, one of the biggest pop groups of their time. The band split in 2001, but got back together a decade later in 2011.
Now they’re releasing their sixth studio album What the Future Holds, and plan to start the tour as soon as the pandemic allows. With all group members now parents, except for Lee, they reveal why they’re grateful not to have grown up with social media, and reveal their fears for their children.

Claire: It’s been an interesting and difficult year full of twists and turns, but I think the whole world has felt that way. It’s been lovely spending more time with family but, work-wise, the uncertainty doesn’t make planning very easy.
