Former boyband singer Lee Ryan has been charged with an attack on a taxi driver, UK police have confirmed.
The 24-year-old ex-Blue star, who recently appeared in the ITV show 'Hell's Kitchen,' is accused of assaulting a cabbie following a minor traffic accident in Surrey on New Year's Eve last year.
He was charged with common assault after answering bail at Reigate Police Station.
A Surrey Police spokeswoman said Ryan will appear at Redhill Magistrates' Court on 29 February.
Blue officially split in 2005 to pursue solo projects. They sold over 7m records, including three UK No One singles and albums, before splitting up.
They were reportedly set for a reunion tour and album last year which has so far failed to materialise.
