A Westlife reunion is happening, but without Brian McFadden

It’s happening soon…

Industry bosses have said that a Westlife reunion is “definitely” happening.

The group are set to reunite without Brian McFadden and are also ditching Simon Cowell’s label in favour of Universal Music.

Apparently, Cowell was only interested in signing the band if Brian was there too so the group left Syco Music, the label owned by the X factor judge.

A source told the Irish Sun : “It’s signed, sealed and delivered and it’s definitely happening — and it absolutely does not include Brian McFadden.

“The other guys have been lined up to return to the studio and record some new songs and tour dates have even been organised, so it’s definitely going ahead this time.

“There’s been a lot of speculation, but this time it’s a done deal and contracts have been signed.”

We guess we’ll see them on The Late Late Show very soon.
