The Irish singers have joined forces to tour as Boyzlife and are both united when it comes to warding off any prospective boyfriends for their daughters
Bryan and Keith say boys aren't allowed to visit their homes
They're dads to teenage girls but Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden insist they’re not ready to slow down yet.
The Irish singers have joined forces to tour as Boyzlife and are ready to prove there’s plenty of life left in them.
And that’s not the only thing they’ve teamed up for - they’ve also united to ward off any prospective boyfriends.
“Boyfriends are banned,” told Boyzone star Keith, who has 17-year-old daughter Mia. “They don’t come near our house.”
“They know better than that,” agreed Westlife ’s Brian, who has girls Molly, 16, and Lilly-Sue, 14, with ex-wife and Atomic Kitten Kerry Katona.
“My girls are great,” went on Brian. “They’re growing up so fast. Now they’re proper women.”
Loved-up Brian, 36, recently relocated to Rochdale, Lancashire to live with PE teacher girlfriend Danielle.
The couple were in Barbados with Brian’s kids earlier this month.

When not being dads and dieting the pair say they enjoy a drink
“We all had a great time in Barbados,” said the dad-of-two, who divorced second wife Vogue Williams last year. “I’m really happy.”
But Brian was less happy about the stick he got for some unflattering pictures of him on the beach - which has spurred him to go on a diet.
“I’m on a health kick and doing the C9 detox diet,” he told. “It’s hell!”
When they’re not being dads and dieting, Keith and Brian are drinking.
Keith admits sometimes their drunken antics can get a bit out of hand.

“We get drunk, have fun and apologise the next day.
“We can still pull all-nighters - it just takes us longer to recover now.”
They’ve even incorporated boozing into their tour.
“On stage there’s two armchairs and a bottle of wine.
“We have a few glasses before we go on to loosen the pallatte.”

Asked whether they’d drank too much on stage, Keith said: “Absolutely.
“Last year in Leeds I fell off the stage. I was telling a story and I was being very animated. I didn’t realise the stage was as small as it was.”
They may sound like dads behaving badly, but insist they’ve learnt to reign it in.
“We’ve got teenage children so we have to set the example.”
Boyzlife tour dates
Pals for almost 20 years - Keith and Brian met when Westlife toured with Boyzone. Both bands went on to conquer the globe - selling millions of records.
The bromance is clear to see, with the pair spending most days together on the golf course.
Last year the pair joined forces and formed Boyzlife. They have signed a deal with Hilton which sees them performing at their hotels across the country, starting next month.
“He does Westlife stories and I do Boyzone stories and we do songs from both bands,” said Keith, who also starred in Coronation Street . “People will come to the show for the nostalgic feel.”
Boyzlife tour kicks off in Glasgow on April 2. For tickets visit www.boyzlifetour.com
