Nicky sits down with Jay McGuiness for a candid conversation about the highs and lows of boyband fame and life beyond it. Jay reflects on The Wanted’s meteoric rise, the chaos behind the scenes, and the moment he knew it was over. He opens up about stepping back into the spotlight on Strictly Come Dancing , his unexpected love for musical theatre, and navigating a career outside the boyband bubble. Jay also speaks about the heartbreaking loss of his bandmate Tom Parker, the impact it had on the group, and how he continues to honour his memory. See Jay this February as he stars as William Shakespeare in the musical & Juliet at Bord Gáis Energy Theatre, Dublin. Running from February 25 to March 8.
