Since
Union J disbanded, they have gone on to pursue separate passions. Having taken a near two year break from social media and the entertainment industries,
George Shelley has been on a long and difficult process of personal development and healing. During this period he has taken much needed time to be kind to himself and build the strength and confidence to step back into the public eye. He released single 'Lose To Find' at the end of last year to mark the end of a chapter of pain and suffering and beckon the beginning of a new era.
George says 'Marking the 10 year anniversary of Union J's formation brings excitement and hope after a crushing few years of isolation, and I hope this energy brings happiness and joy, as it has us, to many fans old and new.'
