Shane Filan admits: 'There are NO plans for a Westlife reunion'

Shane Filan has revealed that there are no plans for a Westlife reunion.

The singer has gone on to have a solo career  since the group called it quits but admitted that Ireland’s most successful boyband will not be getting back together.

“They’re complete rumours though, there are no plans for a reunion. We’ve only seen each once in three years,” he said.

The Sligo native met his former band mates some time ago where they discussed the future.

“I mean, you never know what could happen down the line, but honestly there are no plans, it’s not fair to give people false hope.”

“We’re all happy in our own lives, that’s something we talked about that day. We’re all individually doing well and we’ve survived on our own, which is nice,” he told Reveal Magazine.

Shane said that Westlife’s longevity in the music industry doesn’t call for them to unite again unlike other bands in the industry.

“Take That did end very prematurely, they were like One Direction are today, but instead of taking a break, they were just suddenly gone.”

“Whereas Westlife lasted fourteen years, we made twelve albums which is a lot more than most bands,” he added. 

Meanwhile, the 36-year-old is working on his solo singing career and released his single Me And The Moon last month with his second album Right Here due for release on September 25th.
