The dream is over.

"It was a very tough decision for me but one that was necessary in order to move on with the next chapter of my life."

Richardson said he wanted to pursue other interests but did not indicate what they would be.

Interests: Stamp-collecting, scrapbooking, not being a 30-something member of a "boy-band".

"I wish my brothers continued success and look forward to their new album," said Richardson in his parting words.

Richardson went on: "I intend to listen to their new album with a glass of sherry and a smug expression, serene in the knowledge that I no longer bear any responsibility for this on-going musical train wreck.
