Kian Egan has denied rumours suggesting that he was planning to quit Westlife, saying that his Twitter account was hacked.
A posting on the singer's Twitter page previously said: "Future. The boys are going to continue as a three piece."
Later Egan denied the statement with a posting on his wife Jodi Albert's Twitter page.
He wrote: "Hi Everyone Kian here on Jodi's account. I am NOT Leaving Westlife. Someone has hacked into my account. Trying to sort out my account now. X (sic)."
Fellow Westlife star Mark Feehily also wrote on his page: "Don't worry my little cherubs Kian HAS been hacked...he's not leaving! Happy Easter x (sic)."
