Scott Robinson has shared an emotional tribute to S Club 7's Paul Cattermole after a previous blunder.
The 5IVE singer shared a heartfelt message about Paul, who tragically died aged 47 at his Dorset home on Friday (April 7), just months before the much-anticipated S Club reunion tour.
Singer Scott, 43, shared on Twitter : "Such sad news today at the passing of Paul of @SClub7. We wish all close to him the very best. See you in the great concert in the sky some day Paul. RIP. Love Five."
Yet many were quick to notice a mistake in Scott's original tweet as it followed a message reading: "Scott, stick this up with a picture."
The 5IVE star removed the tweet after the blunder and has since offered an apology, alongside an emotional tribute.
He wrote: "I'm so deeply saddened by the passing of Paul From S Club. I didn't quite have the words to express how I feel.
"A Friend wrote something for me which I felt was perfect. I posted the text do not think that this is just a moment in time for me he was a friend and I'm gutted."
Scott was offered support from his followers, with one commenting: "Sometimes the words don’t come as easily as we want or need them to. Be kind to yourself x."
"Sorry for your loss mate, I remember chatting to you and Ritchie about him in the pub when we went to the football, hope you're ok," added another.
A third fan wrote: "I completely get it. Sometimes there are just no words."
Following the news of Paul's death, a statement from his bandmates said: " We are truly devastated by the passing of our brother Paul. There are no words to describe the deep sadness and loss we all feel.
“We were so lucky to have had him in our lives and are thankful for the amazing memories we have.
"He will be so deeply missed by each and every one of us. We ask that you respect the privacy of his family and of the band at this time."
A statement from Paul’s family added: "It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of our beloved son and brother Paul Cattermole.
“Paul was found on 6th April 2023 at his home in Dorset and was pronounced dead later that afternoon.
“While the cause of death is currently unknown, Dorset Police has confirmed that there were no suspicious circumstances. Paul’s family, friends and fellow members of S Club request privacy at this time.”
It has been reported S Club 7 have vowed to go ahead with their 25th-anniversary reunion tour after the death of bandmate Paul.
