Shane Lynch will never perform with Boyzone again.

The singer rose to fame alongside Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Mikey Graham, and the late Stephen Gately in the Irish boy band in the nineties, scoring a string of hits including Love Me For A Reason, Words and No Matter What.

Ronan Keating teases 2026 Boyzone reunion

The group split in 1999 and although they made a comeback in 2007 and later toured for their 25th anniversary in 2018, Shane has ruled out ever joining the boys again. 

He told the Irish Independent: “They might not know exactly… I haven’t gone to them saying, ‘Boys, I’m not coming back to the band.’

“I’ve just been very open that I’m out of the industry – music, TV and everything.

“They can absolutely crack on without me. I love the boys, so I’ll watch them. Don’t be gutted.”

It comes after Shane’s bandmate Mikey previously insisted it was Ronan that “decided” the band’s performing days were over in 2019.

When asked if the group would do a 30th anniversary tour this year, he shared: “Don’t mean to rain on your parade but Ronan decided boyzone was finished in 2019 so I don’t think there will be any more BZ gigs. [sic]”
