FORMER Westlife star Brian McFadden has broken his silence ahead of his much anticipated wedding to his fiancée with a devastating post.
The singer met his long-term love Danielle Parkinson back in 2016 and popped the question shortly after in December 2019.

The happy couple have been engaged for over five years and are set to tie the knot today in a gorgeous ceremony.
Hours ahead of his big day to his fiancée, Danielle, Brian took to his Instagram to share a devastating post with fans.
The 45-year-old shared an image of Diogo Jota with his wife along with two of their kids.
The Liverpool player passed away just two days ago in a tragic car crash alongside his brother Andre.
Diogo’s tragic accident is a poignant moment for Brian ahead of his wedding as the football star was returning from Portugal where he had just married his wife, Rute Cardoso, 13 days ago.
In the image shared by Brian, Diogo smiles with his wife in his Liverpool kit with his family – embracing his youngest child in his arms.
Posting the photo to Instagram, Brian wrote: “’I’m getting married in the morning. But I go to bed tonight with a heavy heart thinking of Jotas family and loved ones.
“Also all his millions of fans and Liverpool supporters. Life is so short. Appreciate being alive and healthy x.”
Friends and fans raced to the singer’s comment section to wish him the best ahead of the big day.
Christine wrote: “Congratulations on your wedding. life is so short. love every moment, treasure every memory, dance like no one is watching. a little piece of all our hearts are broken. (merseyside girl here with a massive lfc supporter son).”
Jessica gushed: “It’s so touching that you’re thinking of others even on the eve of your big day. Wishing you a beautiful wedding filled with love and gratitude. Life truly is precious – thank you for reminding us of that.”
Emma commented: “Enjoy your day, I think it’s put a massive perspective on a lot of people’s thoughts, really brought it home, he had the perfect everything, it’s devastating, and cruel and can be robbed in a moment.”
Another fan added: “Congratulations. Cherish every moment of your special day and everyday after that.”
TRAGIC LOSS
The Reds striker, 28, and his 25-year-old footballer brother Andre were buried today, just two days after their tragic deaths in a car crash.
As family, friends and teammates said goodbye to Jota and his brother Andre in their hometown in Portugal, mourners were paying their respects over 1,000 miles away at Anfield.
A sea of floral tributes have been left outside the stadium as fans gathered to pay tribute to the star.
Flags have been lowered to half-mast at the stadium and all club stores, museums and tours have been closed until Monday, with staff offered well-being support.
Relatives and friends filed into the church in Gondomar, northern Portugal this morning – the same place where Diogo had got married just 13 days ago.
Father-of-three Jota had only married his long-time partner Rute a fortnight ago, with the organist and soloist who entertained the couple on their wedding performing at the funeral mass.
