THE REMAINING FOUR WERE ABSOLUTELY ADAMANT THAT THEY WILL GO ON AS A FOUR-PIECE AND WILL NOT BE REPLACING BRYAN. THEIR WORLD TOUR IS VERY MUCH STILL ON.
BUT YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT MUSIC HISTORY, TAKE THAT DIDN'T LAST LONG WITHOUT ROBBIE AND THE SPICE GIRLS DIDN'T LAST AFTER GERI LEFT. THAT SAID, WESTLIFE'S REMAINING MEMBERS VOW THEY WILL GO ON AND WILL DO THEIR UPMOST TO MAKE IT WORK. LOUIS WALSH WILL REMAIN THEIR MANAGER.
