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 needs the occasional visit to the supermarket in their gas-guzzling 4x4.

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 announced to her 348k Instagram fans that the couple now plan to 'learn permaculture' so they can 'live off the land' growing fruit and veggies.

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

More than 99 per cent of the numerous vacation homes and farms dotted in the forest are on mains electriicty and most boast a/c and high-speed web as well, provided either by fibre optic cable television or satellite.

Judging by pictures 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 spotted Adam packing a trolley high with products consisting of bathroom paper and bread to take home. Before heading back to their apartment, he emptied the truck of some rubbish consisting of a soft beverage cup from McDonald's.

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

Could an unsightly event which saw the couple clash with authorities and social employees 3 years earlier over an injury to their child daughter have been an element in their decision to give up Britain?

The relocate to Costa Rica brought to 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 uncomfortable departure from S Club 7, a disastrous breast implant surgery leading to years of disease and a spell in rehabilitation to wean her off effective pain reliever.

But less popular is among the darkest chapters in her 2023 autobiography, Facing the Music, billed as a 'searingly candid narrative', worrying a clash between the couple and social services.

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

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

She recalled the dreadful occurrence when she ran toward the noise of Tora's screams: 'The scene that I came upon in the living space will stick with me forever. Tora was basing on the couch, eyelids horrifically lacerated and the worst facial injury I have actually ever seen.'

At the health center, she composed: 'Among the nurses can be found 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 authorities were awaiting him and arrested him, taking him off in handcuffs.

She added: 'It seemed like persecution, among those police states that individuals speak about.

'Honestly, I do not think I can ever forgive individuals accountable, although we've striven to forget it, and them, as quickly as possible.'

Nevertheless, while the social services conducted their examination, she stated, the family needed to live in lodging where other responsible adults existed.

She included: 'This was adding insult to major injury and bearing in mind my gradual decrease in health normally, I was truly starting to despair.'

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

But when the case pertained to trial, it collapsed, and he was found not guilty of common assault and witness intimidation throughout a hearing at Kingston Crown Court. The court heard that 3 prosecution witnesses were not available and that the case could not continue.
