LOS ANGELES (GaeaTimes.com)- It has been reported that Ronan Keating, the Boyzone singer, has separated from his wife of 12 years, Yvonne Keating. This time around, it is not merely a rumor, but the real thing, as the news was announced by the singer himself. The announcement was first made in the official website of the singer. The statement also said that the separation has been on a mutual basis, and that the now estranged couple would be making their best efforts to work the agreement on terms that would be best suited to the requirements of their children. The couple are parents of three children.
However, despite the fact that Ronan Keating had most expressly stated in the official statement that the separation was undertaken on absolutely amicable terms, it has not stopped tongues from wagging. Rumors are floating that the singer and songwriter obtained a separation from his wife over his increasing intimacy with another woman. The name of the woman has not been revealed, but it is said that she is blond, resembles Yvonne Keating a lot, and is a backup dancer with the band. Close sources reported that she and the singer have been spotted together a lot lately, a friendship that had shocked most.
However, the reports might not be that authentic, if the singer’s reactions over the separation are to be believed. He looked visibly distraught as he left the house after making the formal announcement, and a family friend said that the family requests some privacy in this difficult juncture. The friends and other members of the family of Ronan Keating all expressed their feelings of shock and astonishment at the news, which had just come out of the blue.
