Louis Walsh has denied that Westlife are getting back together.
The music manager has insisted there are no plans to bring the band back for a reunion.
“It’s not going to happen, not this year, not next year or even the year after that,” he said.
“Ask me again in 2020 and I might have a better idea then. If it happens it will be in at least seven or eight years’ time,” he said.

Louis added that there have been talks with any record labels get about a new album, despite rumours Simon Cowell was trying to persuade them.
“There have been no conversations about a reunion with any of the band or with me or with any record company,” for the Irish Star.
“There’s no album, there’s no tour, there’s nothing happening,” he said.

“I’ve no idea where it came from and I think all the Westlife guys were mystified about it too,” he added.
Louis comments come after Nicky Byrne denied the band were planning a comeback.
