Irish boy band Westlife have announced that they are splitting next year. The band will part ways "amicably" in 2012 following a greatest hits album and a farewell tour next year. The statement read: "After 14 years, 26 top ten hits including 14 Number One singles, 11 Top Five albums, seven 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."
