Former S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt has just recently delighted her Instagram followers with posts from her idyllic brand-new tropical home in Costa Rica, where she and her partner Adam Thomas are identified to 'live off the land'.
Hannah, 44, altered her bio to: 'Prepper, survivalist and creator now living the uninhibited jungle life.'
But as these exclusive images reveal, even an eco-warrior needs the occasional check out to the grocery store in their gas-guzzling 4x4.
Recently, Adam, 45, filled up the couple's 3.0 litre diesel Hi Lux pick-up with the weekly store at the huge 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 stunning views of lush green valleys is a far cry from their life in Britain, which they waved farewell to in January.
Hannah revealed to her 348k Instagram fans that the couple now plan to 'discover permaculture' so they can 'live off the land' growing fruit and vegetables.
But locals and other expats in the hills above Dominical on Costa Rica's Pacific coast, informed MailOnline that the challenges of self-sufficiency can be 'enormous'.
'Of course it depends on several elements such as just how much dough you have, how much land and above all, how much experience,' stated an American member of the regional ex-pat Facebook group, Domi Crew.

'It can be done, of course, but there are a great deal of people who have actually tried and undervalued how tough it is, then been forced to search for some other kind of paid work rather to manage.'
If that should happen to Hannah and Adam, there would be plenty of opportunities in the flourishing tourist and surfing resort of Dominical, must the couple choose 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 displayed on Instagram just recently.
There is a large range of luxury hotels, yoga retreats, craft breweries, high-end restaurants, health food shops, junk food restaurants and a big BM supermarket, where the couple have actually both been seen.
Though some Instagram fans have actually assumed the couple's wood home with marvelous views of the daybreak from the terrace would be 'off grid', it likely is not.
More than 99 per cent of the many rental properties and farms dotted in the forest are on mains electriicty and most boast a/c and high-speed internet also, provided either by fiber optic cable television or satellite.
Judging by pictures published by Adam on Facebook in their airy kitchen with a high vaulted ceiling, the family won't do not have any mod cons in the home.
At the grocery store today, MailOnline identified Adam packing a trolley high with goods consisting of bathroom paper and bread to take home. Before heading back to their home, he cleared the truck of some rubbish including a soft beverage cup from McDonald's.
One property representative in Dominical informed MailOnline: 'There is a really healthy residential or commercial property market around here and it's driven by foreigners. Much of them are digital wanderers running their company from here since it's lovely, with the jungle, the beaches and the lifestyle.
'But actually earning a living from the land is a tough task, unless you have considerable resources and know-how, or have enough residential or commercial property to rent 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 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 supermarket
Hannah moved to Costa Rica after a series of well-publicised problems including the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole and the row over her stopping S Club 7
It's not known just how much capital Hannah and Adam have in between them, however their plans to open a holistic food store in Twickenham needed to be shelved in 2015, supposedly because of spiralling expenses.
The business residential or commercial property in the heart of Twickenham village, bought in Hannah's name in November 2018 for ₤ 520,000 with a mortgage, was offered in March, having been on the market for ₤ 900,000.
Adam revealed the couple's relocate to Central America back in January with a foul-mouthed attack on Britain, declaring 'F *** the UK and f *** the f *** ing lot of them. We GOOONE!!!'.
His intemperate Facebook post was accompanied by a sweet image of his two children, Taya, five and four-year-old Tora, in a hammock at their spectacular tropical rain forest house.
But the bitter tone of his invective against politicians of all colors, and 'nosey jobsworth c *** s in every federal government department and the NHS' raised another concern.
Could an awful incident which saw the couple clash with police and social employees 3 years back over an injury to their baby child have been a consider their choice to stop Britain?
The transfer to Costa Rica gave an end a well-publicised headache few years for Hannah, which consisted of the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole in 2023, her uncomfortable departure from S Club 7, a dreadful breast implant surgical treatment resulting in years of ill health and a spell in rehab to wean her off effective discomfort killers.
But less well known is among the darkest chapters in her 2023 autobiography, Facing the Music, billed as a 'searingly honest narrative', worrying a clash in between the couple and social services.
In December 2022, while house-sitting for friends in Virginia Water, Surrey, press reports branded the couple 'homeless' while they were in between rental flats.
When then toddler Tora suffered an injury, thought to be triggered by a pet dog jumping up and scratching her eyelid, Hannah wrote: 'We found ourselves on the radar of social services, an absolutely outrageous circumstance to be in, absolutely unjustified.'
She recalled the horrific incident when she ran towards the sound of Tora's screams: 'The scene that I encountered in the living-room will stick with me forever. Tora was standing on the couch, eyelids horrifically lacerated and the worst facial injury I've ever seen.'
At the health center, she wrote: 'Among the nurses can be found in, and asked Adam if she could have a word with him outside. What I didn't understand was that as quickly as he left the space, the police were waiting on him and detained him, taking him off in handcuffs.
'What was currently a dreadful scenario had actually increase to something indescribable'.

But after the bitterness of giving up the UK, the family's dreams of a brand-new live have actually come to life as they delight in morning waterfall strolls and an outdoor play ground as part of their every day lives
Hannah claimed that media reports about their momentary homelessness had somehow convinced the authorities that it was most likely that a person or other of them had actually inflicted their child's injuries.
She said: 'It's truly frightening to believe that somebody with absolutely no evidence can paint an image like that which influences somebody being apprehended and secured while their daughter depends on a hospital bed, waiting for significant surgical treatment.'
She added: 'It felt like persecution, one of those cops mentions that individuals discuss.
'Honestly, I do not think I can ever forgive individuals responsible, although we've made every effort to forget about it, and them, as rapidly as possible.'
Nevertheless, while the social services performed their investigation, she said, the household needed to reside in lodging where other responsible grownups were present.
She added: 'This was including insult to major injury and bearing in mind my progressive decline in health usually, I was really starting to anguish.'
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 frightening a witness.
But when the case came to trial, it collapsed, and he was found not guilty of typical attack and witness intimidation during a hearing at Kingston Crown Court. The court heard that three prosecution witnesses were not offered which the case could not proceed.
Adam Thomas was found not guilty and discharged.
