Liberty X drama before reunion gig

Liberty X singer Tony Lundon's twin babies were born prematurely

Liberty X singer Tony Lundon almost pulled out of The Big Reunion concert when his wife gave birth to twins.

The Irish singer's wife, Kelly, went into labour on Saturday, seven weeks early and just three days before the gig at London's Hammersmith Apollo, The Sun reported.

Tony told the newspaper: "They're seven weeks premature but they're good. They're tiny so they needed a little help and are in a special care unit. We didn't really see them until Sunday morning. It was really scary.

"On Monday, they started improving and by Tuesday they were doing brilliantly. Up until then, it was a bit iffy whether I was going to perform or not."

The newspaper reported that the baby boys, Max and Rioghan, are now doing well, and Tony was able to perform with bandmates Michelle Heaton, Jessica Taylor, Kelli Young and Kevin Simm for the TV gig.

After the concert, all the bands reuniting for the ITV2 show - Liberty X, 911, 5ive, B*Witched, Atomic Kitten, Honeyz and Blue - enjoyed an after-party, the newspaper reported.

Gemini:

This is a good time to establish a routine. Create a schedule that strikes a nice balance between your personal and professional lives. You're the type of person who needs plenty of intellectual stimulation outside of work. If you've been spending too much time at the office, reduce your hours. This may mean less money, but you can't put a price on happiness. You might even decide to take a job with unconventional hours so you can play sports or spend more time outdoors.More
