Mikey Graham's reason for swerving Boyzone premiere after bitter boyband row and fame snub

Three of the four members of Boyzone reunited on Monday night for the first time in almost a decade - but one of the band-members was nowhere to be seen. As documentary Boyzone: No Matter What comes to Sky, Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, and Shane Lynch stepped out as a group once again as their "harrowing, emotional" trip down memory lane premiered in London. However, Mikey Graham was absent from the red carpet after not speaking to his former boy-band members for over a decade.
While Ronan, Shane, and Keith were all smiles on the red carpet at London's Camden Town The Roundhouse, Mickey chose to miss out on the premiere - and BoyZone fans have been left saddened by his decision. The eye-opening documentary series shows never-before-seen footage of manager Louis Walsh speaking about how he created one of the biggest boybands in the world, before tensions rose and his toxic ways came to light. It also delves into the aftermath of the tragic death of Stephen Gately and how his passing left a lasting impact on the rest of the band.
While Mikey features in the documentary series, he chose not to attend the premiere in London after previously opening up about his love for his 'quiet life' in rural Ireland after shunning the fame that followed him for decades. Mickey, 49, who has often been referred to as 'The Quiet One' during his time in Boyzone previously revealed he hasn't spoke to his former bandmates since their final show which took place over five years ago. In the documentary series, Mickey insisted that if given the chance to go back to Boyzone or reunite with Ronan, Shane, and Keith, he doesn't wish to ever go back.
