All eyes will be on Boyzone when their documentary, named No Matter What, lands on screens next month. The members have experienced serious highs and lows over the years, as well as 'rows' which have been widely reported on in the past. Popstar Keith Duffyrevealed in recent years that he had 'full-blown rows' with his tour mate Brian McFadden. The pair had been performing together for their much-anticipated Old School tour, as Boyzlife, which saw them perform classics from their Boyzone and Westlife heyday.
However, it's not always smooth sailing, with Kevin explaining that there have been fights between the two singers. Speaking in an interview with The Sun at the time, Keith explained: “We’ll have a proper argument and a row – we’d never be aggressive with each other, we’re not children – but we’ll certainly let it be known that we’re unhappy and we’re having a little fallout.
“We don’t brush things under the carpet or pretend things didn’t happen.”. Despite the rows, the pair are quick to reconcile. Keith added: "People will see us after a row having a pint in the pub next door, and they’ll go ‘how are those still talking?’”.
The pair joined forces to perform hits from Boyzone and Westlife from the 90s and 00s, with their tour covering medleys and hits the audience will remember. Despite their feuding, Keith went on to say he and Brian have a close bond. He explained: “We’re very close. I have two brothers but my relationship with Brian is closer than that. There has to be an air of understanding, and we can’t always get on well, and you’re not going to be on good form every day. You’re going to do things that upset each other.
