Paul had been looking forward to joining his former bandmates for a reunion tour scheduled for later this year.
Last year, the pop star had begun providing online tarot card services.
And just weeks ago, when he spoke to announce the reunion, Paul revealed he had consulted with the cards to see what the future held.
The singer told MailOnline: “I saw wheel of fortune – that’s good, that’s good luck. I genuinely did look at the cards.
“There were other cards as well, ace of clubs – passion, new beginnings, your cup over-runeth with genuinely passionate emotion.
“It’s positivity – something to be passionate about.”
Following the shock news, Paul’s family released a statement.
In it they said: “It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of our beloved son and brother Paul Cattermole.
“Paul was found yesterday, 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.”

This afternoon a Dorset police spokesperson told The Sun they were called after “reports of the sudden death of a man aged in his 40s at an address in Wareham”.
They continued: “The man’s family have been informed and HM Coroner notified.
“The death is not being treated as suspicious and enquiries are being carried out on behalf of HM Coroner.”
Paul was born in St Albans, Herts, and he and S Club 7 co-star Hannah Spearritt, 42, became friends in their teenage years.
It comes as…
They got together after their ‘romance’ was written into a storyline on their TV show, L.A 7, which ran from April to July in 2000.
Paul had been one of the original members of S Club 7 when it formed in 1998.
The star left the band in 2002 and went on to form a new group named Skua, but they split a year later.
In 2014, S Club 7 performed together at Children in Need and then the following year reunited for the Bring It All Back Tour.
Paul and Hannah reignited their relationship, but later split for good.
Today, the 42-year-old “broke down” after being told the news of her ex’s death.
A source told The Sun: “Everyone is in pieces. Hannah and the rest of the gang broke down when told what happened.
“No one can believe it. There is a real sense of horror and disbelief.”
