‘WE'RE PROUD OF OUR BLENDED FAMILY – BUT WE'RE STOPPING AT FIVE'

FASHION GURU STORM KEATING TELLS OK! WHY HER MARRIAGE TO RONAN IS UNBREAKABLE HOW THEY’VE MADE A HAPPY HOME AND HOW HER RECOVERY FROM RECENT SPINAL SURGERY IS GOING

- EMILY WHITWAM

Australian fashion designer Storm Keating certainly has a lot on her plate. Not only does she have a house full, she’s also recovering from an emergency operation on her spine.

The 39-year-old, who married Ronan in 2015, was admitted to hospital for a prolapsed disc back in March.

“I was in so much pain – I couldn’t breathe properly,” she admits.

And their hectic household is jam-packed. While Storm has Cooper, four, and one-year-old Coco with Ronan, the former Boyzone star is also dad to Jack, 22, Missy, 20, and Ali, 15, from a previous marriage.

“We have a very full family and busy household,” Storm says.

Here, the fashion expert tells us all about her frightening ordeal and how Ronan, 44, supported her through it...

Hi Storm! Is Ronan a hands-on dad?

Ronan is possibly one of the most hands-on dads I’ve ever known in my life. He does everything. Especially at the minute – I had a serious back injury and condition. He’s taken on everything from the cooking and the cleaning, the nap times, bed and bath times – he’s unbelievable.

What happened with your back?
