Hannah, 44, altered her bio to: 'Prepper, survivalist and developer now living the uninhibited jungle life.'
But as these exclusive pictures reveal, even an eco-warrior requires the periodic visit to the supermarket in their gas-guzzling 4x4.
Last week, Adam, 45, packed up the couple's 3.0 litre diesel Hi Lux pick-up with the weekly store at the huge BM supermarket in Dominical, about half an hour down the mountain from where the couple and their two young have based themselves.
Hannah and Adam's hillside estate with its own waterfalls and spectacular views of lavish 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 prepare to 'learn permaculture' so they can 'live off the land' growing fruit and veggies.
But locals and other expats in the hills above Dominical on Costa Rica's Pacific coast, told MailOnline that the difficulties of self-sufficiency can be 'tremendous'.
'Of course it depends on a number of aspects such as just how much dough you have, just 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, however there are a great deal of individuals who have actually attempted and ignored how tough it is, then been forced to look for some other type of paid work rather to manage.'
If that should take place to Hannah and Adam, there would be a lot of opportunities in the thriving traveler and browsing resort of Dominical, ought to the couple decide 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 recently.

More than 99 percent of the lots of villas and farms dotted in the forest are on mains electriicty and most boast cooling and high-speed web as well, delivered either by fibre optic cable or satellite.
Judging by images published by Adam on Facebook in their airy kitchen area with a high vaulted ceiling, the family won't lack any mod cons in the home.
At the supermarket today, MailOnline spotted Adam packing a trolley high with goods consisting of bathroom paper and bread to take home. Before heading back to their apartment, he cleared the truck of some rubbish consisting of a soft drink cup from McDonald's.
One genuine estate agent in Dominical told MailOnline: 'There is an extremely healthy residential or commercial property market around here and it's driven by immigrants. A number of them are digital nomads running their company from here since it's gorgeous, with the jungle, the beaches and the lifestyle.
'But really making a living from the land is a tough job, unless you have significant resources and know-how, or have enough residential or commercial property to rent it out to paying guests.'
Hannah published this video of a campfire and a Volkswagen camper van as part of the family's brand-new starts after quitting the UK for the warmer climes of central America
However, the truth is that Hannah and Adam are utilizing this ecologically unfriendly 3.0 litre diesel Hi Lux pick-up truck to do the daily chores like popping to the grocery store
Hannah relocated to Costa Rica after a series of well-publicised setbacks including the death of her ex-boyfriend and band member Paul Cattermole and the row over her quitting S Club 7
It's not known just how much capital Hannah and Adam have in between them, but their plans to open a holistic food shop in Twickenham needed to be shelved in 2015, supposedly because of spiralling costs.
The industrial residential or commercial property in the heart of Twickenham town, 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 announced 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 great deal of them. We GOOONE!!!'.
His intemperate Facebook post was accompanied by a sweet photo of his 2 daughters, Taya, 5 and four-year-old Tora, in a hammock at their spectacular rain forest house.
But the bitter tone of his invective against politicians of all shades, and 'nosey jobsworth c *** s in every government department and the NHS' raised another concern.
Could an ugly occurrence which saw the couple clash with authorities and social employees three years back over an injury to their infant daughter have been a consider their choice to stop Britain?
The relocate to Costa Rica brought to an end a well-publicised headache few years for Hannah, which 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 surgical treatment leading to years of disease and a spell in rehabilitation to wean her off powerful discomfort killers.
But less well understood is one of the darkest chapters in her 2023 autobiography, Facing the Music, billed as a 'searingly honest narrative', worrying a clash 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 young child Tora suffered an injury, thought to be triggered by a pet leaping up and scratching her eyelid, Hannah composed: 'We discovered ourselves on the radar of social services, a definitely ludicrous scenario to be in, absolutely unjustified.'
She recalled the horrific event when she ran toward the noise of Tora's screams: 'The scene that I came across in the living-room will stay with me permanently. Tora was basing on the couch, eyelids horrifically lacerated and the worst facial injury I've ever seen.'
At the healthcare facility, she wrote: 'One of the nurses was available 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 room, the authorities were waiting on him and apprehended him, taking him off in handcuffs.
'What was currently a terrible circumstance had increase to something inexpressible'.
When the family landed in Costa Rica Hannah's partner Adam posted this image on his public Facebook page of their 2 daughters and included an expletive-laden tirade at the UK

Hannah claimed that media reports about their short-term homelessness had actually somehow persuaded the authorities that it was most likely that a person or other of them had actually caused their daughter's injuries.
She stated: 'It's really frightening to believe that somebody with absolutely no evidence can paint an image like that which influences somebody being detained and locked up while their daughter depends on a hospital bed, waiting on significant surgery.'
She included: 'It seemed like persecution, among those police states that people talk about.
'Honestly, I do not believe I can ever forgive the people responsible, although we have actually striven to forget it, and them, as rapidly as possible.'
Nevertheless, while the social services conducted their investigation, she stated, the family had to reside in accommodation where other accountable grownups existed.
She included: 'This was adding insult to major injury and bearing in mind my progressive decrease in health usually, I was really starting to misery.'
It wasn't the very first time Adam Thomas had been investigated for supposed violence. In 2016, he was charged with assaulting 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 common attack and witness intimidation during a hearing at Kingston Crown Court. The court heard that 3 prosecution witnesses were not readily available which the case could not proceed.
Adam Thomas was found not guilty and discharged.

Meanwhile Hannah, who has struggled with an autoimmune condition because 2013, had been set to join her former band on their return tour in 2023 but pulled out following a feud over agreements.

Hannah was said to have been blindsided by the S Club announcement, with her being left on bad terms with the band in which she increased to fame in the early 2000s.
She then reportedly drafted in attorneys and made the bold transfer to release her autobiography on the same day the band would have required to the stage.
Before Paul's death, all seven members of the chart-topping band initially validated they were reuniting for a landmark 25th anniversary tour.
