One of the lead singers in Westlife, Mark Feehily, also stated that he is considering a career break that will see him host three shows on Irish RTE Radio 1 each week.
Mark Feehily — one of the lead singers in Westlife — has addressed his health after he experienced sepsis.
The 45-year-old vocalist told fans he feels well enough to start his career comeback, having spent months in intensive care following the sepsis battle. Mark quit Westlife in 2024 amid the health scare, announcing he wasn’t going to join Shane Filan, Kian Egan, Nicky Byrne on their 25th anniversary tour.
He is now making a comeback, as Ireland’s RTE Radio 1 is set to air a program three times each week. His programs will be available on the network, the country’s most popular radio station, on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.
Mark, himself from Silgo, Ireland, posted on Instagram: “My body and my mind need time. However, thankfully, sitting in a chair to do a radio show is a completely different physical and mental demand to doing a massive world tour and I feel very lucky to be able to do this new @rteradio1 show.
Although it’s not quite a stadium performance, it’s a HUGE accomplishment for me! I’m sitting back and doing absolutely nothing right now would make things worse for me emotionally and medically, so here goes!

The Irish star posted a picture of himself sitting in the rado station while wearing headphones. A brief but profound message from me to you. Sorry about the lack of posting, but it’s been so long. I miss you. Knowing that I won’t be able to join the party will be quite challenging to watch my bands’ big World Tour debut.
“But it’s been really amazing to see our band still exploding and the incredible global support that our band still receives.” “YOUR back”
Beginning in Aberdeen in September 2026, Westlife’s 25th anniversary celebration will continue until November. The band will also be able to entertain visitors from other countries, including those in Belgium, Holland, Norway, and Denmark.
Mark won’t be with the young men as he battles a chronic illness. The musician underwent routine surgery after being diagnosed with sepsis in 2020, but he later developed pneumonia. Since battling his initial illness, Mark has undergone four significant operations to address complications.
