Early life

Richards began her career in the pop trio TSD. [2] They had little success and were dropped by their record label Avex after the release of their second single "Baby I Love You". She went on to work as a receptionist for seven months, winning the temporary worker of the month award for May 1997. [2]

Career

1997–2001: Early career with Steps

Richards auditioned for the lineup that would become Steps. She was offered a place in the group on the condition that she lost weight. Steps were formed by Steve Crosby and Barry Upton (writers of "5, 6, 7, 8") alongside manager Tim Byrne after auditioning hopefuls who answered an ad in The Stage newspaper. She joined the group in 1997 along with Ian "H" Watkins, Lisa Scott-Lee, Faye Tozer and Lee Latchford-Evans, and the band enjoyed considerable popularity across the world over the next five years.

2002–2011: H & Claire and presenting

After Richards and her groupmate Ian "H" Watkins resigned during the last leg of Steps' 2001 Gold Tour, the two continued singing as the duo H & Claire. The pair experienced success with their debut single "DJ", which reached No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart, and their next two singles, which both charted in the top 10. While the duo had initial success, their album Another You, Another Me, which was released in 2002, did not chart high. Richards also co hosted alongside Brian Dowling and Tess Daly on SMTV Live in 2002. She took a break from singing to plan her wedding to Steps dancer Mark Webb. H & Claire disbanded in 2003. After leaving her music career, Richards wanted to take a break from music and concentrate on other projects; she was set to release a debut solo album but due to falling pregnant Richards decided to not pursue music any further. In 2013, she announced on Twitter that there was a possibility of her producing a solo album to the success of Steps.

It was announced in May 2011 that Richards would be taking part in the second series of Popstar to Operastar making it her first major high-profile appearance in nearly ten years.

Despite a much-praised performance of the Queen of the Night aria from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's The Magic Flute in the semi-final, she lost out on a place in the final to Cheryl Baker. [3]

Richards was a contestant on eleventh series of Celebrity Big Brother and came fourth place as the show ended on 25 January 2013.

Richards released her first solo material, a cover of the Steps track "One for Sorrow", on 30 July 2015 via her official SoundCloud. [6] The acoustic version of the track was recorded for an event honouring Steps' producer Pete Waterman. The track was arranged and produced by Steve Anderson with whom Richards was now working on a full album. [7] In September 2015, after much fan demand, Richards released a stripped-back version of "Deeper Shade of Blue".
