The Wanted has announced they will take a break after their spring tour wraps in order to pursue personal projects. The group announced their hiatus on their website.
“This tour will be their last for a while as Tom, Max, Jay, Siva and Nathan have collectively decided to take time to pursue personal endeavours following the tour's conclusion,” a message on their website reads.
“The band wants to stress to their fans that they will continue on as The Wanted and look forward to many successful projects together in the future. They thank their fans for their continued love and support and look forward to seeing them on tour,” their statement continued.
The band starred in an E! reality show called The Wanted Life, showing a more intimate side of their career. Siva Kaneswaran just got engaged to his girlfriend Nareesha McCafferey, so it would make sense that he would want to take some time off. Max George was also seen pursuing acting on the show, which could be what he wants to pursue after the tour.
Since the announcement, they band has taken to Twitter to thank fans for their support.
