Alan was also not invited to Danny’s nuptials to Georgia in 2014.
Speaking from his radio station in L’Alfàs del Pi, Alan explained how his marriage to Kathy collapsed when Danny and Vicky left home in the early 2000s.
Danny was in London after signing with a record label with Tom Fletcher to form the band McFly, which would go on to sell more than 10 million records worldwide.
Alan said: ‘It should have been a time when the marriage came a little closer, but it wasn’t.
“I can’t explain why, but it didn’t happen, so we had two very bad years and, in fact, Danny watched this with his sister and they wrote a song about it… and then I met Sharon and that was it.”
Danny was 19 when Alan abandoned the family in 2005 and previously revealed how he sought therapy for anxiety over the incident.
