The group said the decision had been made following "open and thoughtful conversations together".Katseye confirmed they would continue scheduled performances during Bannerman's absence and "look forward to being together again when the time is right".However, no timeline was given for her return, and her absence from the latest music video suggests she will not join the group at Coachella. Record label HBYE confirmed to The Korea Herald earlier this week that Bannerman "remains on hiatus."Writing on the WeVerse fandom page earlier this week, Bannerman said: "Thank you so much for all the love and support you've been sending my way."I'm really grateful for the patience and kindness everyone has shown during this time. [The record label] and I are having positive conversations and I feel supported. I'm happy and I'm healthy. I'll share more soon. Thank you for always being there for me."Getty ImagesManon (pictured last September) has removed references to Katseye from her Instagram pageBut...المصدر: BBC Entertainment | Source: BBC Entertainment
