An Update From Nicky
Westlife are busy recording their brand new album at the moment, but Nicky’s
taken some time out to send this exclusive message…
Hello everyone
After taking a few months off to unwind after the tour, we’re finally back in
the studio. We’ve been busy working on the new album for the past couple of
weeks and are having a really great time. I know you’ve all been dying to hear
some new material from us, so you’ll be pleased to hear that the album will
have loads of brand new tracks on.
We’re due to finish in the studio this week and then we’re jetting off abroad
next week to shoot the video. Can’t give too much away at the moment, but stay
tuned and we’ll let you know a bit more about it soon.
Take care
Nicky

Westlife Nicky: It's great to be a dad
Westlife's Nicky Byrne has swapped nightclubs for night feeds - and admitted
he couldn't be happier.
The 28-year-old singer, who described the birth of his identical twins Rocco
and Jay as a "magical experience", is relishing his new role as a father.
His wife Georgina went into premature labour and the boys were born by
Caesarean section on April 20.
Nicky said: "The birth of the babies has been the most magical experience
of our lives.
"They're wonderful, the icing on the cake and I can't believe they're all mine
and Georgina's.
"I just cannot put it into words how much I love them and tell you what it
feels like being a daddy."
But the singer admitted things were difficult when the newborn twins had to be
kept in intensive care for several weeks.
The couple, who have been together since the age of 16, took it in turns to
keep a vigil by their cots.
The beaming dad said: "We thought we'd never get them home to welcome them into
their new environment, to love them, cuddle them and do everything for them.
"The hospital staff were magnificent but it was so difficult for us to watch
them in ICU, and although they were perfectly healthy, just born a bit early,
we knew that we had to keep an eye on them.
"Georgina and I were there with them every single day and night to feed them
and play with them and, of course, we kept telling them we loved them and
wanted to bring them home.
"The day finally came when Jay was allowed home but they had to keep Rocco,
our little fighter, in for another week."
Nicky may be a superstar dad, adored by millions of fans but this does not
stop him getting his hands dirty.
The star told Maternity and Infant magazine he changes his fair share of
nappies to ensure he splits the workload with Georgina.
He said: "The nurses taught us on a daily basis how to handle them, bathe
them, change their nappies and feed them.
"But when we got them home it was another thing entirely.
"We are a dab hand at it now and we love every minute of it."
