An insider told the Irish Daily Mirror today; “They have loads in common. For the first time in months Ronan has a real spring in his step. Things are going great.

“Storm is beautiful and vivacious and is a really good tonic for Ronan after the tough 18 months he’s had.

“They are both into keeping fit, music and good food and wine, there is a real spark between the two of them.

“Although they’re still in the early stages, both think this could be the start of something long-term.”

I love my wife and my family is everything to me. Right now, I’m trying to be the man I want to be.”

Ronan has yet to tell his three children, Jack, Marie and Ali, about his new romance but said he is to have the full backing of his family.
