The young pop band – who were a spin off from S Club 7 – were formed in 2001, before disbanding in 2004.
The members included Rochelle Humes, Frankie Bridge, Aaron Renfree, Jay Asforis, Stacey Franks, Calvin Goldspink, Daisy Shelvey and Hannah Richings.
Now Rochelle has bravely opened up about how her life changed dramatically when the band broke up when she was still very young.
The TV star, who is now a presenter on This Morning, spoke about having to find a “normal” job, despite being famous at the time.
Speaking to the Grace Beverley podcast she said: “So when S Club Juniors finished, I was like what am I going to do now?

“Because you hear about these child performers who have led like a really weird life.
“So after (the S Club Juniors ended) I would like hand out leaflets outside of Tesco.
“And feeling really embarrassed because it wasn’t glamourous and now I’m being that person that’s handing out leaflets that no one wants to take them from.”
Rochelle went on: “(During our time in the band) We were all earning good money.
“Like we could buy ourselves expensive things, and we all had nice cars, like we helped out our parents.
“But then it all ended – and so does the money.”
Luckily for Rochelle – who now has an estimated fortune of around £5M – wasn’t “broke” for too long.
After S Club Juniors ended in the mid-noughties, she went on to more chart-topping success in the girl band The Saturdays.
She also started dating future-husband Marvin Humes, of JLS fame, in 2010 and got married two years later.
Meanwhile, Rochelle broke into TV via kids’ show Smile in 2004, going on to bag presenting stints on This Morning, The Xtra Factor and Ninja Warrior UK.
