Louise and her bandmate Kelle Bryan are said to have walked away as a result.<\/p>\n
A source who spoke to the BBC said: “A message was sent to the team putting together the Eternal reunion stating that if it was to go ahead, neither Vernie nor Easther would perform at Pride shows or LGBTQ+ festivals.<\/p>\n
“This was because the duo felt that the gay community was being hijacked by the trans community and they do not support this.<\/p>\n
“Louise is a huge supporter and ally of the LGBTQ+ community and both herself and K\u00e9ll\u00e9 told the duo they would not work with anyone who held these views, and as such the reunion as a four would not be going ahead.”<\/p>\n

I’ve been very open about that over the years.<\/p>\n “I just feel passionate that the LGBTQ+ community were involved and included. And it’s just that simple. But I still have a lot of love for what we have done together and we are the best of friends. Fingers crossed all good.”<\/p>\n After initially remaining silent on the matter, Vernie later took to Instagram to say: “I am ‘Eternally’ grateful for the family, friends & amazing fans who have and continue to support our incredible journey & artistry. I’ve been blessed to connect with so many diverse & wonderful people from all walks of life during my career. You all have a piece of my heart.<\/p>\n “Though it is impossible & counterproductive to respond to the overwhelming number of statements & allegations made online recently; I place this moment in God’s hands. I truly appreciate all who continue to express love & support for my family & Eternal.” (sic)<\/p>\n Louise shares two children: Charley and Beau with her ex-husband.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Jamie went on to marry model Frida Andersson in 2021.<\/p>\n After forming in 1992, Louise left the band Eternal in 1995 to pursue a solo career.<\/p>\n
