They already announced their plans to take a break, now Westlife have confirmed that they are actually splitting up for good. Statement from the band reads:
"After 14 years, 26 top ten hits including 14 number one singles, 11 top 5 albums, 7 of which hit the top spot and have collectively sold over 44 million copies around the world, 10 sell out tours and countless memories that we will forever cherish, we today announce our plan to go our separate ways after a greatest hits collection this Christmas and a farewell tour next year. The decision is entirely amicable and after spending all of our adult life together so far, we want to have a well-earned break and look at new ventures. We see the greatest hits collection and the farewell tour as the perfect way to celebrate our incredible career along with our fans. We are really looking forward to getting out on the tour and seeing our fans one last time.
Over the years Westlife has become so much more to us than just a band. Westlife are a family. We would like to thank our fans who have been with us on this amazing journey and are part of our family too.
We never imagined when we started out in 1998 that 14 years later we would still be recording, touring and having hits together. It has been a dream come true for all of us.
Kian, Mark, Nicky and Shane"
The boys Greatest Hits album is released on 21 November, and fans will be able to say goodbye in person on their May 2012 tour
Usually it's the wives of pop stars flaunting their beach bodies as they holiday in sunny climes.

But Westlife singer Mark Feehily's boyfriend Kevin McDaid, 26, gave ex-Hollyoaks babe Jodi Albert, 27, a run for her money. While Jodi covered up in a black batwing top and shorts, hunky Kevin stripped off to show a buff body in a pair of short swimming trunks.
Mark and Kevin, who was a member of the now defunct boy band V, have been dating since January 2005 and last January they announced their engagement. The pair strolled on the beach before deciding to take to the waters for some sporty fun with their partners. The former Hollyoaks star seemed to be very body-conscious as she took to a paddle board in Barbados earlier this week.
And Jodi wasn't the only one to cover up as her husband of almost two years also decided not to bear his body. The shy singer stayed under wraps in long surfer shorts and a black t-shirt as he tried his hand at paddle boarding. And he looked as though he'd failed to stay on top of the board as he went out on it dry but was then snapped looking soaked through as his clothes clung to him.
Kevin - who wasn't at all shy in his tiny shorts that showed off his muscular frame - looked like a natural however as he sailed past his friends and went to join his fiancé who was seated in a canoe. The two men chatted to each other and touched their oars together as they bobbed on the water. But later on, Mark had to be rescued by his long-term partner after his canoe capsized. The pop star was left bobbing up and down in the sea after falling out of his boat as he and Kevin took to the waves. Mark sailed out inside a red canoe and looked as though he was having a great time until he fell into the water. Watched by Kevin and Jodi, who were laughing and chatting in the surf before Kevin waded in to help his partner out of the water and on to his board.
A very happy Valentine's Day to all Westlife fans! The boys have recorded a short message each to celebrate this special day - check them out below. http://www.westlife.com/news/2009/02/14/happy_valentines_day
Westlife star Mark Feehily has revealed that Boyzone singer Stephen Gately's bravery in coming out as gay helped him find the courage to do the same years later.
Wednesday November 04 2009
Westlife star Mark Feehily has revealed that Boyzone singer Stephen Gately's bravery in coming out as gay helped him find the courage to do the same years later.
Stephen sent shockwaves throughout the music industry when he publicly announced he was gay in 1999.
Mark followed in 2005, and said it was Stephen's fearlessness that helped him do so.
He also credited the late singer for paving the way for other gay men in Ireland.
"In hindsight, Stephen helped me and probably any other gay lad to come out," he said.
"Every time a celebrity comes out, people have said to me that they came out after.
"This one young lad said I was in the paper that day and he was with his mum and she responded really positively to the story, no negative attitude.
"So he decided to seize the moment and tell her he was gay."
He added: "A lot of similar stuff happened with Stephen Gately, but there was a difference in the way it was perceived
Braver
"He was a lot braver than me. Things are constantly improving -- he was one of the first people."
The singer said that when a public figure admits to being gay, it helps promote tolerance and provides a positive image for the gay community.
"I remember what a big thing it was when he came out to a tabloid newspaper," he said.
"There is a cliche about guys and there is the reality, and a lot of people just see the cliches.
"Every time something normal happens to a celebrity who happens to be gay, or every time a celebrity who is admired by thousands or millions of people comes out, it is one more blow to the negative cliche and one more victory for the reality.
"There is not a whole lot of difference between gay people and straight people. Stephen definitely helped back this up."
Mark went on to speak of the harrowing day of Stephen's funeral, three weeks ago.
"I was as close to him as I was to anyone in Boyzone," he said.
"We supported them when we first started. As a teenager in Ireland, I grew up watching Boyzone on TV, and it was a mixture of a fan from back in the day and a friend that bumped into him.
"I've been to a lot of funerals, because, where I come from in Ireland, everyone knows each other and there are big funerals.
Tragic
"There is always something a lot more tragic when a young life is lost.
"You can process the death of an elderly person a lot easier."
On Stephen's funeral, he concluded: "It was a little bit of a celebration of his life.
"Everybody was talking about all the good things that had happened."

18-04-09 Jay and Rocco celebrate their second birthday Jay and Rocco may be Ireland's most famous twins but their second birthday on Monday will be a quiet affair. The grandsons of former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern will celebrate at a family gathering in Portugal. The boys are no strangers to the spotlight, but there are no plans for a big birthday bash. The pair, who have their own bebo page, were born by c-section at Dublin's Holles Street Hospital 6 weeks early and had to spend the first month of their lives in the hospital. The boys weighed just slightly more than a bag of sugar between them when they were born, with Jay weighing just 2lb 13oz and Rocco a minuscule 2lb 11oz. Since then, they have been thriving, growing sturdy and strong at their lavish Malahide home.

March 17 2010 PROUD dad Nicky Byrne was among the many thousands who turned out for Dublin's St Patrick Day's parade. The Westlife singer took his twin boys Rocco and Jay, who will be three next month, to see the annual pageant, led this year by soccer legend Packie Bonner.

Monday July 18 2011 THERE was no morning lie-in for parents yesterday as hundreds of excited kids flocked to the Irish premiere of animated film 'Cars 2'. Mini movie fans surged into the Savoy cinema on Dublin's O'Connell Street shortly after 10am, after organisers opened the doors early thanks to a sudden downpour outside. Among those eager for a first glimpse of the latest adventures of Lightning McQueen were Rocco and Jay, the four-year-old twins of Westlife's Nicky Byrne and Georgina Ahern, right. "They're very excited. They were watching the first 'Cars' film yesterday and they have their own toy cars with them," said Georgina.
Friday July 22 2011 STAR couple Nicky Byrne and Georgina Ahern won't be sending twins Jay and Rocco to school for another year. Westlife singer Nicky and his fitness trainer wife Georgina had originally planned to send their four-year-old twins to primary school in September. However, the couple have now opted to keep the boys home for another year. Proud dad Nicky (32) explained how their sons, whose grandfather is former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, will start school in the autumn of 2012. "The boys are four. They're not starting school this year, no," Nicky explained. "They'll probably start in September of next year. "It's a weird one because their birthday falls in April so if they went now they would be one of the youngest in the class. quality "They say for boys it's good to leave them for another year as they're more mature. We'll wait and see if that's true," he laughed. Rocco and Jay have enjoyed a number of family nights out with their parents in recent weeks including a trip to Peter Pan at the Grand Canal Theatre earlier this week, as well as an outing to the premiere of Cars 2 last Sunday. Nicky explained how he has been enjoying spending some quality time with his offspring in recent weeks after taking a month's break. He and his bandmates Shane Filan, Kian Egan and Mark Feehily are now due to hit the road once more with their hugely popular tour. The talented foursome will take to the stage at Hamilton Park Racecourse in Scotland this Saturday, marking their first performance in months. Nicky says he and the rest of the group are now looking forward to the tour of South Africa and South East Asia in the autumn. Westlife will take in stops in Manila, Vietnam and Shanghai to name but a few. "I'm doing a bit of everything to be honest," Nicky explained. "We just came back from the UK, we were there for four days. We were in the studio for four or five weeks but we finished there about a month ago. "Then we had a month off so we've a gig next Saturday. We've a few big shows coming up. "We'll be finishing off the tour in the UK and then we've got South Africa to do and then we'll be going to South East Asia," he added. The down to earth singer has also been tipped to land a role on RTE's new talent show series, The Voice. Nicky insists however that he is completely in the dark when it comes to the show.
