LONDON: Boyzone’s lead singer, Ronan Keating, 48, has hinted that the band may reunite in 2026 after the success of a recent documentary.
Yesterday, AsiaOne reported that Keating, who found fame with the Irish boyband in 1993, told the Scott Mills Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2 that fans had an incredible response to their four-part documentary, ‘Boyzone: No Matter What’, which aired last February.
“The success and popularity of the documentary has made us think about getting back together,” he said.
“The reaction was unbelievable, we’ve all been chatting over the last few weeks, and I think 2026 might be a year for Boyzone to try and do something.”
The group later posted an image on Instagram of the members with the caption “the journey continues”, encouraging fans to sign up for a mailing list.
Boyzone initially split in 2000 as members pursued solo careers but reunited in 2007.
They toured extensively, including their ‘Thank You and Goodnight’ farewell shows between 2018 and 2019, but have not performed together since.
When Mills asked how his bandmates were doing, Keating replied, “They’re really great.”
Boyzone, which also includes Keith Duffy, Mikey Graham, Shane Lynch, and the late Stephen Gately, has six UK number-one singles and five UK number-one albums, with hits like ‘Love Me For A Reason’, ‘Words’, and ‘No Matter What’.
Gately passed away from natural causes on Oct 10, 2009, at the age of 33, at his holiday home in Majorca, Spain.
