Westlife singer Shane Filan has been declared bankrupt in the UK.The Irish band have sold millions of records but Mr Filan suffered enormous losses in his country's property crash.In a statement, the 32-year-old said he had "worked long and hard" to tackle his debts and was devastated that his problems have come to this conclusion.The pop star filed for bankruptcy in the UK which has a less onerous bankruptcy regime than the Republic of Ireland.In the UK the period of bankruptcy typically lasts for a year but in the Republic of Ireland it is at least three years and more commonly 12 years.Mr Filan owns a property company, Shafin Developments Limited, with his brother Finbarr.It was established in 2004 and had been involved in developments in Counties Leitrim and Sligo in the west of Ireland.Last month, the company was placed in receivership.
