Hannah, 44, altered her bio to: 'Prepper, survivalist and developer now living the uninhibited jungle life.'

But as these unique images reveal, even an eco-warrior requires the occasional check out to the grocery store in their gas-guzzling 4x4.

Recently, Adam, 45, packed up the couple's 3.0 litre diesel Hi Lux pick-up with the weekly store at the big BM grocery store in Dominical, about half an hour down the mountain from where the couple and their two young daughters have actually based themselves.

Hannah and Adam's hillside estate with its own waterfalls and sensational views of lush green valleys is a far cry from their life in Britain, which they waved goodbye to in January.

Hannah revealed to her 348k Instagram fans that the couple now prepare to 'learn permaculture' so they can 'live off the land' growing vegetables and fruit.

But locals and other expats in the hills above Dominical on Costa Rica's Pacific coast, informed MailOnline that the obstacles of self-sufficiency can be 'tremendous'.

'Of course it depends on a number of elements such as how much dough you have, just how much land and above all, how much experience,' said an American member of the regional ex-pat Facebook group, Domi Crew.

Despite Hannah changing her Instagram bio to: 'Prepper, survivalist and creator now living the uninhibited jungle life', Adam was seen this week stockpiling on the weekly store at B&M

Adam was seen carrying a McDonald's soda cup as he got out of the household's gas-guzzling 4x4 truck. B&M supermarket offers a variety of products including sodas, confectionery, and alcohol, as well as toiletries and cleansing products and garden furniture

'It can be done, of course, but there are a great deal of people who have actually tried and underestimated how tough it is, then been required to try to find some other type of paid work instead to manage.'

If that need to happen to Hannah and Adam, there would be a lot of opportunities in the growing tourist and surfing resort of Dominical, ought to the couple decide to work.

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

There is a wide variety of high-end hotels, yoga retreats, craft breweries, high-end dining establishments, health food stores, fast food dining establishments and a huge BM grocery store, where the couple have actually both been seen.

Though some Instagram fans have presumed the couple's wood home with remarkable views of the dawn 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 cooling and high-speed internet also, delivered either by fibre optic cable television or satellite.

Judging by photos published by Adam on Facebook in their airy kitchen area with a high vaulted ceiling, the household won't do not have any mod cons in the home.

At the grocery store today, MailOnline identified Adam loading a trolley high with goods including bathroom paper and bread to take home. Before heading back to their apartment or condo, he cleared the truck of some rubbish consisting of a soda cup from McDonald's.

One property representative in Dominical informed MailOnline: 'There is an extremely healthy residential or commercial property market around here and it's driven by foreigners. Much of them are digital nomads running their service from here since it's gorgeous, with the jungle, the beaches and the quality of life.

'But in fact earning a living from the land is a hard task, unless you have substantial resources and knowledge, or have adequate residential or commercial property to lease it out to paying visitors.'

Hannah published this video of a campfire and a Volkswagen camper van as part of the family's new starts after quitting the UK for the warmer climes of central America

However, the truth is that Hannah and Adam are using this ecologically unfriendly 3.0 litre diesel Hi truck to do the everyday chores like popping to the supermarket

Hannah moved to Costa Rica after a series of well-publicised setbacks consisting of the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole and the row over her quitting S Club 7

It's not understood just how much capital Hannah and Adam have between them, but their plans to open a holistic food store in Twickenham had to be shelved last year, supposedly because of spiralling expenses.

The industrial 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 offered in March, having been on the marketplace for ₤ 900,000.

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

His intemperate Facebook post was accompanied by a sweet picture of his two daughters, Taya, five and four-year-old Tora, in a hammock at their spectacular tropical rain forest home.

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

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

The relocate to Costa Rica gave an end a well-publicised headache couple of years for Hannah, that included the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole in 2023, her awkward departure from S Club 7, a dreadful breast augmentation surgery leading to years of ill health and a spell in rehabilitation to wean her off effective pain medication.

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

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

When then toddler Tora suffered an injury, believed to be triggered by a pet dog jumping up and scratching her eyelid, Hannah wrote: 'We discovered ourselves on the radar of social services, an absolutely outrageous scenario to be in, completely unjustified.'

She remembered the horrific occurrence when she ran towards the noise of Tora's screams: 'The scene that I came upon in the living-room will stay with me permanently. Tora was basing on the couch, eyelids horrifically lacerated and the worst facial injury I've ever seen.'

At the healthcare facility, she composed: 'One of the nurses can be found in, and asked Adam if she might have a word with him outside. What I didn't know was that as quickly as he left the space, the cops were awaiting him and jailed him, taking him off in handcuffs.

'What was already a terrible scenario had ramped up to something indescribable'.

When the household landed in Costa Rica Hannah's partner Adam published this picture on his public Facebook page of their two children and included an expletive-laden tirade at the UK

Adam - pictured in the couple's roomy Costa Rica apartment or condo - ranted about Keir Starmer, the Tories, Reform and the NHS as he bid farewell to Britain

But after the bitterness of stopping the UK, the family's imagine a brand-new live have actually come to life as they enjoy morning waterfall strolls and an outside play area as part of their lives

Hannah claimed that media reports about their short-term homelessness had somehow encouraged the authorities that it was likely that one or other of them had inflicted their daughter's injuries.

She stated: 'It's really frightening to think that someone with definitely no proof can paint a picture like that which affects somebody being apprehended and secured while their child lies in a medical facility bed, waiting for major surgery.'

She added: 'It felt like persecution, one of those cops specifies that people speak about.

'Honestly, I do not think I can ever forgive individuals responsible, although we have actually striven to ignore it, and them, as rapidly as possible.'

Nevertheless, while the social services conducted their examination, she said, the family had to live in lodging where other accountable grownups were present.

She added: 'This was adding insult to severe injury and bearing in mind my gradual decline in health usually, I was really beginning to despair.'

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

But when the case came to trial, it collapsed, and he was discovered not guilty of typical assault and witness intimidation during a hearing at Kingston Crown Court. The court heard that 3 prosecution witnesses were not offered and that the case could not continue.

Adam Thomas was found not guilty and released.

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

Hannah has actually repeatedly taken to Instagram to wax lyrical about how well the move has actually ended up for them and marvelled at the beauty of Costa Rica

The see originally inspired them to establish the café, Fire and Earth, in Twickenham in 2022. However, it was never prepared to open totally and they offered up earlier this year.

A source said: 'It's the current in a sequence of setbacks. The brand-new strategy is offering up and transferring to Costa Rica to live off the land.'

Meanwhile Hannah, who has struggled with an autoimmune condition since 2013, had actually been set to join her former band on their return trip in 2023 however 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.

Along with living off the land, there is a large of luxury hotels, yoga retreats, craft breweries, high-end restaurants, health food shops, junk food dining establishments offered to Hannah and Adam

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 increased to fame in the early 2000s.

She then reportedly drafted in legal representatives and made the vibrant move to release her autobiography on the same day the band would have required to the stage.

Before Paul's death, all 7 members of the chart-topping band initially confirmed they were reuniting for a landmark 25th anniversary trip.

Hannah initially refused to join the line-up, citing an absence of child care and just accepted sign up with when music supervisor Simon Fuller provided to spend for baby-sitters to come along.

Two months later on, band member Paul passed away, and Hannah then accepted a five-figure sum to tell her story, which left a bitter taste in the remaining band member's mouths.
