S Club 7 singer Paul Cattermole's cause of death has been confirmed by the official coroner's report as being natural causes.
The 46-year-old star, who shot to fame in band S Club 7 alongside his six bandmates in the early noughties, was found dead at his home in Dorset on April 6.
The official coroner's certificate lists the singer's death as being "natural causes" whilst also citing heart related issues as the reason for the star's tragic death. Heart issues including cardiac arrhythmia, acute myocardial ischemia and severe coronary artery atheroma and intraplaque hemorrhage were listed on the official certificate.

Last month a spokeswoman from Dorset Coroner's Service said: "We confirm that Mr Cattermole died from natural causes and our investigations have concluded. As his death was from natural causes there will be no inquest."
