RONAN CARRIES HIS BROTHER ON FINAL JOURNEY

WEARING sunglasses, a sombre suit and a grim expression, Ronan Keating carefully carries his brother's coffin on his shoulder.

The Boyzone singer was one of the pallbearers as heartbroken loved ones gathered yesterday for the funeral mass of his elder sibling Ciaran, who died on Saturday in a car accident.

The 57-year-old grandfather was killed when two cars collided as he and wife Annemarie travelled to watch son Ruairi play for Cork City FC in Ireland.

Ronan, 46, sang his heartfelt track This Is Your Song towards the end of an emotional service.

Ronan explained it was written after his mum Marie's death from breast cancer, aged 51, in 1998.
