Viva reports US5 star Richie Stringini has failed to rejoin the group after the holidays and is still at home in Wheaton, Illinois. Apparently, even though Stringini turned 18 on November 28th, the singer’s parents are forbidding him from returning to Germany to be with his bandmates. Now, the boy band’s management wants to fly to Wheaton and talk with the family to change their minds.
The story at viva.tv has since been removed.
