It's been over two decades since Atomic Kitten first burst onto the music scene, but where are the members of the iconic British girl band now? From solo music careers to reality TV fame and business ventures, the original lineup has taken diverse paths since their chart-topping heyday.
From Chart Success to Separate Lives
Atomic Kitten first made their mark in 1999 with their debut single 'Right Now', achieving peak success during the early 2000s. The group originally featured Natasha Hamilton, Liz McClarnon and Kerry Katona, though the lineup changed in 2001 when Katona departed after becoming pregnant with her first daughter. She was replaced by Jenny Frost, who remained with the band until their initial split.
The tension between Katona and her former bandmates began almost immediately when the group re-recorded their massive hit 'Whole Again' to replace Kerry's vocals with Jenny's. Although the original members briefly reunited in 2017, the comeback was short-lived as Hamilton wanted to focus on her solo career.
What Each Member Is Doing Today
Natasha Hamilton, now 43, has maintained her presence in the music industry, releasing solo material as recently as 2025. Beyond music, she's appeared on reality television shows including Celebrity Big Brother. The mother of five children - sons Josh, Harry and Alfie, plus daughters Ella and Kitty - married Charles Gay in 2021 after previous relationships with Riad Erraji and 5ive's Ritchie Neville.
Liz McClarnon, aged 44, pursued her own solo career after the band's initial split, releasing singles including 'Woman in Love' and 'I Get the Sweetest Feeling' in 2006. She later attempted to represent the UK in the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest with '(Don't It Make You) Happy', though the honour ultimately went to Scooch. More recently, Liz has launched her own travel business called No Fly Traveller, specialising in destinations accessible without air travel. In 2025, she welcomed her first child after being open about her previous fertility struggles.
Kerry Katona transformed into a showbusiness personality after leaving the band, briefly exploring solo music with tracks like 'Feeling Love' and a new version of 'Whole Again' recorded with her daughter. She became a reality television regular, appearing on I'm A Celebrity in 2002, Celebs Go Dating in 2016 and Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins in 2019. Her personal life has featured prominently in media coverage, including marriages to Westlife's Brian McFadden, Mark Croft and George Kay. She is mother to five children: Molly and Lilly-Sue with McFadden, Heidi and Max with Croft, and Dylan-Jorge with Kay.
Life Away from the Spotlight
Jenny Frost took a different path after Atomic Kitten, briefly working as a television presenter before stepping away from celebrity life. She now resides in Ibiza with her husband of 14 years, Juan Spiteri, and their twin daughters. She also has a son, Caspar J, from her previous relationship with DJ Dominic Thrupp.
While their time as a chart-dominating girl group may belong to the past, each member of Atomic Kitten has carved out their own distinctive path, balancing family life with diverse professional pursuits beyond their musical origins.
