Westlife back on song after six-year split

Prince Harry: Me and Meghan will have to visit Butlin’s holiday camp

- BY MIRROR REPORTER BY RUSSELL MYERS Royal Correspond­ent

WESTLIFE last night confirmed they’re getting back together after breaking up six years ago.

Shane Filan, Mark Feehily, Nicky Byrne and Kian Egan revealed in a Facebook video they have a new album and tour on the way.

It had previously been rumoured the boyband would be reuniting without original fifth member Brian Mcfadden.

And there were rumours last month Ed Sheeran was behind the group’s comeback single.

The hugely successful Irish act called it a day after 14 years in June 2012.

Westlife’s final show at Croke Park, which was part of their Farewell Tour, was beamed to cinemas around the world. THE royals are more accustomed to butlers than Butlin’s, but Prince Harry has joked he and Meghan will take a trip to one of the holiday camps.

He made the remark yesterday while the couple were on their first official visit to the counties that give them their titles.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex w e r e cheered on by thousands of well-wishers during the tour.

From a window at the

University of Chichester’s campus in Bognor Regis, West

Sussex, Harry pointed out the

Butlin’s holiday camp and asked: “What’s that?”

Seemingly thinking he was being flippant, the Lordlieute­nant of West Sussex,

Susan Pyper, told him: “I want to take you to Butlin’s.”

An embarrasse­d Harry replied: “Oh that’s Butlin’s is it? I’m not laughing, I’m just saying it looks like a circus.” Standing next to wife Meghan, he added: “We’ll have to go.”

The budget holiday camp – which has a large tent-like structure – was so taken with his comment that bosses said the royal couple are “welcome any time”.

The pair began their tour in Chichester, joking with the crowds in bright sunshine. Meghan – in an Armani coat and a dark green shirt and skirt – and Harry were shown a copy of the American Declaratio­n of Independen­ce which is kept in the records office in Chichester and is thought to be one of only two in the world. They also visited the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, East Sussex.
