Mark Feehily has revealed that he will marry his partner Kevin McDaid next year.
The Westlife singer proposed to McDaid last year, who he has dated since officially coming out in 2005.
Feehily said that they had hoped to marry this year but were too busy to do so. He now says that they plan to wed once Westlife complete their farewell tour next year.
He told The Mirror: "We plan to get married as soon as possible but it's about finding a gap to do it.
"It will definitely be next year. We want to do it as soon as we possibly can, but we want it to be right as well. It's finding the time and doing it right. We've no reason to rush it or say, 'Let's just... pick any church or hotel or venue in the country'."
He added: "We've been so committed to Westlife that while we've had big gaps when we're not working, you have to plan so far in advance for a wedding. So you really don't have time to plan. We've pretty much got the time to be getting on with the wedding now."
Westlife announced last month that they were to split after 14 years and they will have a final Greatest Hits tour in May 2012.
