"I can't believe I'm writing this right now but as many of you know we lost our dear friend, fellow band member and big brother Paul last week," Bradley, 41, said on Instagram alongside an old video of himself and Paul messing around by donning wigs in a shop at the peak of their fame.
"Thank you for the good times the memories and big love. We had so many great adventures together. I know your not going to be with us on the next one in the physical but you'll always be with us in our hearts and thoughts. Gonna miss you. Love you bro. R.I.P (sic)."
Tributes had already been paid to Paul by his other bandmates Rachel Stevens, 45, Jo O'Meara, 43, Jon Lee, 40, Hannah Spearritt, 42, and 46-year-old Tina Barrett.
Jo said on social media, "I just wanted to reach out and thank everybody from the bottom of my heart for the love and kindness you have shown over the tragic passing of our sweetest soul Paul. This has been utterly devastating, and I am totally shocked and heartbroken."
"We have lost someone so incredibly special to us all, and there is a huge sense of sadness that will never go. Paul will forever be a huge part of our lives, and I will forever treasure the memories we made! I will love you always Paul, God bless you my darling, Rest in forever Peace Love JoJo."
