Nick Jonas addresses Jonas Brothers split rumours as he hosts Saturday Night Live

Nick Jonas was joined on Saturday Night Live by his brother Kevin to put to bed rumours that The Jonas Brothers will be splitting up. 

Over the past week, rumours suggested the group – completed by third brother, Joe – would be ending their decades-long career together in order to pursue solo ventures. 

But the boys have been quick to nip those thoughts in the bud, and where better to clear things up on Saturday Night Live?!

Opening last night’s SNL, Nick was seen in good spirits as he had ‘double duty’ of being the episode’s host and musical guest, and then pointed to eldest brother Kevin in the audience. 

‘I am so excited to be here to support you,’ Kevin told his brother. ‘Also I got to ask… Are we good? Because I see you doing a lot of solo stuff…’ 

Nick reassured him that the band was fine despite him also working on his own thing.

Unconvinced, dad-of-two Kevin added: ‘Are you sure? Because I just bought a house.’ 

‘Kevin, the band is still together I promise,’ Nick told him. 

‘OK good,’ Kevin said. ‘One more question…MMMBop, was that us?’ 

The band had previously broken up in 2013, after ‘creative differences’ within the band caused them to go their separate ways. 

While Kevin stayed at home to raise a family, Joe went on to form pop group DNCE, and Nick launched a solo music career and acting career. 

But in 2019, the group reconciled, launching a new chart-topping single with Sucker, touring, and announcing a Las Vegas residency. 

However, all plans were put on hold in 2020 thanks to coronavirus, with the boys yet to state when they will all be back together. 

Saturday Night Live returns on March 27 on NBC in the US.
