Boyband Star Declared Bankrupt Just Before The Band’s Comeback

Boyband member, Duncan James of Blue, has been declared bankrupt, shortly before the band are planning to make their comeback.

According to Digital Spy, the bankruptcy order was made at the High Court under James's real name, Duncan Inglis and was published in the London Gazette.

Blue had previously commented that they had suffered financial losses following the demise of the band and did not receive good advice about investing or saving money.

Anthony Costa, another member of Blue, commented: "Any money I did have left at the end of Blue I wasn't advised on how to save it... [but] we have got a good team around us today who help me and the boys out with financial advice," he explained.

Blue split in 2005 but reformed in 2009. The band are planning to hit the road again shortly as part of a UK comeback tour.

James has not yet commented on the news.
