Brian McFadden has admitted he hasn’t spoken to his former Westlife bandmates in 10 years.
The singer left the popular Irish boy band in 2004 to work on solo projects, and is now making music with Boyzone star Keith Duffy,
During his appearance on This Morning, the Dublin native revealed he hasn’t spoken to Shane Filan, Nicky Byrne, Kian Egan and Mark Feehily in a decade.
When asked by host Alison Hammond if the Westlife boys supported his Boyzlife venture with Keith, Brian replied: “Don’t know. I haven’t spoken to them in 10 years.”
“[I left] in 2004. I’ve actually been in Boyzlife longer, which is weird,” he added.
Brian also joked that Alison and her co-host Dermot O’Leary didn’t do their research before their interview, as they played a Westlife song that was recorded after he had left the group.
Introducing Brian and Keith, Alison said: “Westlife and Boyzone join forces. Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden. They join us now. Now you just said, earlier on we played a tune Brian?”
The 41-year-old replied: “You played You Raise Me Up and it’s the only one I wasn’t in. I’d actually left the band at that point.”
Keith joked: “You played the one song that is literally nothing to do with either of us.”
Brian added: “21 number ones and you pick the one I’m not a part of.”
Keith said he wouldn’t be interested in forming a supergroup between Boyzone and Westlife.
He said: “We’re grand the way we are – two is fine, you know. When there’s five it’s difficult, there’s too many personalities but it is only Brian and I and we agree on everything.”
