Steps were reportedly forced to call in the police when a group of drunken fans crashed their music video shoot.
The 90s pop group were filming a new video following their recent reunion announcement, and it seems some of their fans got a little too excited about it.
It's said that the band - Lisa Scott-Lee, Claire Richards, Faye Tozer, Lee Latchford-Evans and Ian 'H' Watkins - had to contact police when five drunk fans turned up to their video shoot in Blackpool, sparking coronavirus fears.
According to The Sun, the band were filming by the seaside town's famous tower when three men and two women headed towards them, despite the rules around social-distancing.
A source told the newspaper: "To say things in Blackpool didn’t go to plan would be an understatement.
"They obviously have to be extremely careful at the moment due to Covid-19 so having people get too close is just not something they can risk.
"These drunk fans kept trying to get near them and get in the shots for the video. The team tried to keep them away but eventually the police turned up and managed to get them to leave so the band could finish."
And it's said that thats not the only disaster that struck during the video shoot.
It's also reported that Faye and the band's manager were accidentally locked inside an amusement arcade by the crew after filming was finished.
Steps' representatives did not want to comment when contacted by Mirror Online.
Meanwhile, H has said he's in a "happy bubble" after finding love once more.
The dad-of-two spit from partner Craig Ryder three years ago, and has now coupled up with dancer-turned-tour manager Tom Hope.
During an exclusive chat with the Mirror, H said: "All I'll say is that I'm very happy and I'm in a lovely happy bubble."
A friend had previously told The Sun : "H is smitten and it's lovely for everyone to see.
