Andrew Ridgeley Reveals Why Wham! Split Up | This Morning

[@StellaKnights]

everyone needs a friend like andrew , Im so sad that George is no longer with us but what a life he lived

[@Chris-qo4rt]

What i love about Andrew is that he allowed GM to realise his full potential not letting his ego get in the way, many others might have been jealous or resentful of that situation when the band was intially a 50/50 project but Andrew always supported George no matter what, even if that meant taking a step back. He did recognize that GM was the better songwriter.

[@IroncladStranger]

I was talking to a good friend about that, we watched the wham documentary on Netflix and we were both astonished bybl Andrew's humility in the situation. I admit if it was me I'd have been jealous and resentful. Great guy Mr Ridgeley

[@lindarobinson1821]

Andrew is still cute. He is right. Every time I hear a Wham song I am 19 yrs old again. Good times. Thank you😅

[@adrienneclarke3953]

Have you watched his Wham tribute/documentary? I watch it all the time. It's a fantastic show.

[@valjames1971]

Beyond cute… was never into Wham but boy was he cute then and attractive now

[@HFDZ119]

I think this is the most beautiful and genuine friendship that existed in the music industry. And when Andrew was in his 20s he already said that he was going to retire with grace. Well, he did.

[@M_Baker9ersFan]

Weird seeing Andrew looking like a diplomat. Talented guy

[@josefinanavazo3088]

Yes he looks like a diplomat

[@mapagmasidtv]

Yeah just like vic beckham they just outgrow that phase in there life that is not what they want in their life anymore

[@caroline8293]

Your wrong Andrew 😊, because Wham will never age. Like you 😊and George😊, were absolutely fantastic' you were gorgeous and still are. I loved George Solo , but Wham songs are hard to beat, they are timeless and ageless. People would still love to see you guys on stage no matter what age, Wham and whole band were best in world, songs were absolutely super and hard to beat. Last Christmas for example, there is no other song that can beat that one, no matter who the artist is. That is a top no 1 forever song of all time. ❤ George was at his happiest in Wham. ❤❤

This is a good looking old man. He was extremely attractive when he was younger.

Yeah overlooked on that front i think. Good lookin bar steward.

Old man? He's in his 50s, not 70s. And he's very active cycling etc.

[@octane1713]

@@fmmaj9noname332 He’s in his 60’s. I consider that old. Being old is not a bad thing.

[@fmmaj9noname332]

@@octane1713 He's 61 now, and this video was posted 4 years ago, and it is probably older, so he was at most 57 when it was taped. Not old. To put it in perspective, Debbie Harry, who found fame just a few years earlier in 1979, is 79 years old, and Ric Ocasek, also from the Class of 1979, would be 80 today if still living. THAT'S old. LOL

[@octane1713]

@@fmmaj9noname332 What you described is very old. 20 is young, 30 is young, 40 is somewhat young. 50 is middle aged. 60 is somewhat old. 70 is even older. 80-100 very old. Round 57. 😂

Anne Zie. Andy matured through period of times and era. He knew his time was off. He looks so professional, dress yeah like a diplomat or office guy. He had a lot of respects towards Georgie private life. He chose to.keep silence for years. Respect u Andy. So you will continue wth yr life peacefully. Aged gracefully and lord bless you wth great health

[@loriturnbull1487]

Great interview Andrew. Great book!

[@elizabethmcaloon2402]

Loved both of them, in wham . I think if they stayed together, George might still be alive. But I understand George wanted to grow as a solo artist and a writer. Rip George 🙏 you will be missed

[@Lightbeam0000]

Its to bad he got left behind! Wham was very much his baby. Without him it wouldn't have been. Time just seems to ruin everything! You can never hold on to the moment it comes and goes and the your 50-60 .

[@AmericanWoman1]

George said he wouldn't have ended Wham! when he did but he was in a relationship that just ended and he was angry and feeling sh!tty, he was striking out in his anger. He would have held off a little longer before ending the group.

[@DenkyManner]

I don't need to watch the video to know Wham! split up because Ridgeley wanted to go in a new direction and Michael was holding him back

[@theophilusconnor]

You got the names reversed. Intentional?

[@AEOlvido]

@retread01 Too funny! (Surely George Michael himself would've seen the humor in your comment.)

[@shoreline780]

Andrew has been riding on George's coat tales for years. George was Wham Andy wS just along for the ride.

[@ColumbiaQT2001]

Micheal was a solo artist when he was in Wham. He experienced astronomical fame and success at the same time as being in a band. I watched the Netflix movie. It was very entertainment. Micheal just got too big for Wham. And Andrew knows that. I’m glad Andrew has had the opportunity to come in on the back end and tell his story as well.

[@paulmenzies202]

BS headline…they readily “revealed” in 1985 why they ended the band about a year later in 1986. It’s never been a secret or mystery.

[@marwan8130]

Andrew would you tell them that you had alot of memories and time and you want to share with all of us

No, without Andrew their wouldn’t be a George Michael

[@jayemel]

Actually George was a superstar and Andrew simply couldn't do much besides just helping him grown. It was actually Michael's idea to having him be the only responsible por the songs and Everything, Andrew respected cause he was a good friend and he knew that George was better than him at the job.

[@leecarson3426]

Andrew and George were a great team. They BOTH CREATED WHAM! Andrew has talent, too. George Michael was an amazing singer and songwriter.
