'It can be done, naturally, however there are a lot of individuals who've tried and underestimated how hard it is, then been required to look for some other kind of paid work instead to get by.'

If that need to occur to Hannah and Adam, there would be lots of opportunities in the growing tourist and browsing resort of Dominical, ought to the couple choose to work.

The town is less than half an hour's drive down the mountain in their substantial gas-guzzling 3.0 litre diesel Toyota Hi Lux pick-up which Hannah displayed on Instagram just recently.

There is a large range of luxury hotels, yoga retreats, craft breweries, high-end restaurants, healthy food stores, quickly food dining establishments and a big BM supermarket, where the couple have both been seen.

Though some Instagram fans have actually assumed the couple's wood house with glorious views of the daybreak from the terrace would be 'off grid', it likely is not.

More than 99 per cent of the numerous rental properties and farms dotted in the forest are on mains electriicty and most boast air conditioning and high-speed internet too, provided either by fibre optic cable or satellite.

Judging by images posted by Adam on Facebook in their airy cooking area with a high vaulted ceiling, the family won't do not have any mod cons in the home.

At the grocery store today, MailOnline found Adam packing a trolley high with items consisting of loo paper and bread to take home. Before heading back to their apartment or condo, he cleared the truck of some rubbish including a soft drink cup from McDonald's.

One realty agent in Dominical told MailOnline: 'There is a very healthy residential or commercial property market around here and it's driven by immigrants. A lot of them are digital wanderers running their company from here due to the fact that it's stunning, with the jungle, the beaches and the quality of life.

'But really making a living from the land is a tough task, unless you have considerable resources and knowledge, or have enough residential or commercial property to lease it out to paying guests.'

However, the reality is that Hannah and Adam are utilizing this environmentally hostile 3.0 litre diesel Hi Lux pick-up truck to do the day-to-day tasks like popping to the grocery store

Hannah relocated to Costa Rica after a series of well-publicised setbacks including the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole and the row over her giving up S Club 7

It's not understood just how much capital Hannah and Adam have between them, but their plans to open a holistic supermarket in Twickenham had actually to be shelved in 2015, supposedly since of spiralling costs.

The commercial residential or commercial property in the heart of Twickenham town, bought in Hannah's name in November 2018 for ₤ 520,000 with a mortgage, was sold in March, having been on the market for ₤ 900,000.

Adam announced the couple's relocate to Central America back in January with a foul-mouthed attack on Britain, stating 'F *** the UK and f *** the f *** ing great deal of them. We GOOONE!!!'.

His intemperate Facebook post was accompanied by a sweet photo of his two children, Taya, 5 and four-year-old Tora, in a hammock at their spectacular rain forest house.

But the bitter tone of his invective against politicians of all shades, and 'nosey jobsworth c *** s in every government department and the NHS' raised another question.

Could an awful event which saw the couple clash with cops and social employees three years earlier over an injury to their baby daughter have been a factor in their choice to give up Britain?

The relocate to Costa Rica gave an end a well-publicised problem few years for Hannah, which consisted of the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole in 2023, her awkward departure from S Club 7, a disastrous breast implant surgery resulting in years of illness and a spell in rehab to wean her off effective pain medication.

But less well understood is among the darkest chapters in her 2023 autobiography, Facing the Music, billed as a 'searingly honest narrative', concerning a clash in between the couple and social services.

In December 2022, while house-sitting for pals in Virginia Water, Surrey, press reports branded the couple 'homeless' while they were between rental flats.

When then young child Tora suffered an injury, thought to be triggered by a dog leaping up and scratching her eyelid, Hannah composed: 'We found ourselves on the radar of social services, a definitely absurd circumstance to be in, completely unjustified.'

She remembered the horrific event when she ran towards the noise of Tora's screams: 'The scene that I came across in the living space will stick with me permanently. Tora was basing on the sofa, eyelids horrifically lacerated and the worst facial injury I have actually ever seen.'

At the hospital, she composed: 'One of the nurses was available in, and asked Adam if she could have a word with him outside. What I didn't know was that as soon as he left the space, the cops were waiting on him and jailed him, taking him off in handcuffs.

'What was already a dreadful circumstance had ramped up to something inexpressible'.

When the family landed in Costa Rica Hannah's partner Adam posted this photo on his public Facebook page of their two daughters and included an expletive-laden rant at the UK

But after the bitterness of quitting the UK, the household's dreams of a brand-new live have actually come to life as they enjoy morning waterfall walks and an outside play ground as part of their every day lives

Hannah claimed that media reports about their short-lived homelessness had actually somehow convinced the authorities that it was likely that one or other of them had caused their daughter's injuries.

She stated: 'It's genuinely frightening to think that someone with definitely zero evidence can paint a photo like that which influences somebody being detained and locked up while their daughter depends on a medical facility bed, waiting on major surgical treatment.'

She included: 'It seemed like persecution, one of those cops mentions that people talk about.

'Honestly, I don't believe I can ever forgive individuals accountable, although we've striven to ignore it, and them, as rapidly as possible.'

Nevertheless, while the social services conducted their investigation, she said, the family needed to live in lodging where other accountable grownups existed.

She included: 'This was including insult to serious injury and bearing in mind my gradual decrease in health generally, I was really beginning to misery.'

It wasn't the very first time Adam Thomas had actually been investigated for supposed violence. In 2016, he was charged with attacking Hannah in a domestic argument, and intimidating a witness.

But when the case concerned trial, it collapsed, and he was discovered not guilty of typical assault and witness intimidation throughout a hearing at Kingston Crown Court. The court heard that three prosecution witnesses were not available and that the case could not continue.

Adam Thomas was discovered not guilty and discharged.

Hannah and Adam are believed to have chosen Costa Rica to settle after delighting in a trip to the sensational location in 2018.

The visit originally influenced them to set up the coffee shop, Fire and Earth, in Twickenham in 2022. However, it was never ever prepared to open totally and they sold up previously this year.

A source said: 'It's the latest in a series of setbacks. The new plan is offering up and moving to Costa Rica to live off the land.'

Meanwhile Hannah, who has actually experienced an autoimmune condition because 2013, had actually been set to join her previous band on their comeback tour in 2023 but pulled out following a feud over agreements.

Following the row, the other members - Rachel Stevens, Jo O'Meara, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh and Tina Barrett - announced that they would continue as a five-piece.

Hannah was said to have been blindsided by the S Club announcement, with her being left on bad terms with the band in which she rose to popularity in the early 2000s.

She then apparently drafted in attorneys and made the strong relocate to launch her autobiography on the same day the band would have required to the stage.
