Brian McFadden spoke about his new comeback album, married life and his old bandmates from Westlife during an interview, according to The Mirror.
After being separated from his band, Westlife, nine years ago, Brian McFadden makes a comeback with his new album called "The Irish Collection." He shares his experiences about being on tour away from home and his desire to work with his old band mates again.
McFadden is happily married to an Irish DJ Vogue Williams since last September and spends most of his time with her even on tour. He also spoke about his two daughters with ex-wife Kerry Katona, Molly 11, and Lilly-Sue 10 and how he manages to spend time with them too.
Here are a few excerpts from the interview:
On his married life:
"Great. We've been together two years and only spent one night apart. She's been on the road with me. She had a gig in Australia and was meant to go back before me so I offered to pay the fee they were going to pay her to stay with me. It's kind of like prostitution really, paying your wife..."
On being asked if he is nervous about his new album:
"If it was an original album, I'd be nervous, but it's an album of my favourite Irish songs. I did this to bring me back into the market again, because I was touring and it was pointless me coming back unless I had an album."
On his favorite moments he missed in Australia the most:
"Football. It comes on at midnight, so you're just sitting at home watching it, there's not that pub culture. And the sausages are rubbish, it's all weird egg white omelettes. Since we've been back, me and my wife (Brian is married to Irish DJ Vogue Williams) put on so much weight - sausages, egg, bacon, its great. I miss all the bad stuff, basically."
On reuniting with Westlife in future:
"I loved being in Westlife, but it's fresh for them being broken up, and I don't think they would bring me back anyway. I think people see it as two different Westlifes - there is me in Westlife for six years and there is the four piece for seven years. They had more success after I left."
