Westlife star Shane Filan delighted fans after sharing a warm and festive photo from a recent night out with his wife, Gillian. The singer, who has spent much of the year travelling and performing, appears to be embracing some well-earned downtime as the Christmas season draws closer, much to the joy of his followers.
In the photo, Shane and Gillian posed together in their Sligo home in front of a glowing Christmas tree decorated with rich red and gold ornaments. Shane opted for a navy Christmas jumper inspired by his Westlife roots, featuring a playful design that included the faces of his bandmates arranged on a festive wreath, subtly nodding to the group that made him a household name.
Gillian complemented the festive mood with her own seasonal outfit, wearing a white-and-red knit jumper paired with blue jeans. She completed the look with brown leather ankle boots, creating a stylish yet relaxed ensemble that fans were quick to admire. The couple’s coordinated outfits and easy chemistry gave the snapshot an especially heartwarming feel.
Sharing the image online, Shane added a lighthearted caption about their Christmas jumper night out, prompting an immediate reaction from fans and friends. The comments quickly filled with compliments, with many praising how great the couple looked and singling out Shane’s jumper as both fun and flattering.
Away from the festive celebrations at home, the couple recently enjoyed a family trip to Nuremberg, Germany, alongside their son Shane Jr. The visit coincided with a trip organised through the Sligo Rovers Academy, where their son had the opportunity to explore the Adidas factory. The family also took time to enjoy the city’s architecture, Christmas markets, and local atmosphere, rounding off a memorable and meaningful getaway together.
