Nicky Byrne will ‘absolutely’ return to host Dancing With The Stars

Well, it’s been confirmed but not by Nicky himself.

Instead, it was confirmed last night by Louis Walsh.

Yep, Westlife’s long-time manager broke the news to the Irish Daily Mirror, saying that Nicky will “absolutely” reprise his role as presenter on Dancing With The Stars.

Louis said: “Yes, he [Nicky] loves doing that show. He absolutely loves that show.”

This will make many fans very happy as they loved Nicky hosting the competition; and after Westlife’s reunion tour, the question of Nicky making a return was left unanswered.

It doesn’t seem like Louis is too keen on making an appearance on the show, however as he said there was “no way” when asked.

“No. I wouldn’t do that show, they don’t pay. RTE pay nobody. No way,” he said.

“I know what I’m good at, and it’s not dancing. I’m not doing it. I’m not in the fame game.”

Westlife just released their latest single My Blood on October 25 which was dedicated to their children. The band embarked on a reunion tour earlier this year which included two sold-out shows in Croke Park.

They also announced that they will take to Cork’s Pairc Ui Chaoimh for the first-ever time on 28 and 29 of August 2020.

Their new album is due out on November 15, 2019.
