What happened next?
Steps had a second UK chart topper with "Stomp" in 2000. After the release of the old Diana Ross song "Chain Reaction," H and Claire left, citing unhappiness in the group and the group disbanded. H and Claire released the album, "Another you, another you" spawning three UK top 10 singles with "DJ" being the pick of three reaching UK#3 in 2002.
10 years later, the group reunited and they released their sixth studio album, "What the future holds" and are currently touring in 2021.
