Former Westlife singer Markus Feehily has shared his views on One Direction's current situation: dealing with Zayn Malik's exit.

After going through a similar experience with Westlife when Brian McFadden left the group back in 2004, he admits the rest of the band were “very scared” during that time.

The remaining members of Westlife initially thought that they would break up and follow in the path of most bands that went before them, like Take That and Spice Girls. However, they continued to make music for a further 10 years!

Feehily explains how they pulled through Brian's exit, adding: “The only thing you really need is a load of fans, and that the members of the band want to continue.”

Maybe 1D could take some pointers?
