Ronan Keating and wife Storm

The Boyzone singer married Storm Uechtritz after five years together in August and earlier this month, his annual Emeralds and Ivy Ball - which is held in honour of his late mother Marie and which he co-hosted with his wife for the first time - raised a record-breaking amount for cancer charities, and he admits life couldn't be better.

He said: "Every year since meeting Storm I've looked back and thought, 'Wow, what an amazing year and what a lucky man I am' but 2015 has certainly topped them all.

"To finish the year off raising over a million pounds is the ultimate conclusion to a very memorable 12 months."

Ronan - who has children Jack, 16, Missy, 14, and Ali, 10, with ex-wife Yvonne - can't wait to see what the future hold for his charity, The Marie Keating Foundation.

He said: "I'm really looking forward to what the next decade will bring.

"With Storm and the kids involved now, plus the whole Keating family by my side, we're a powerhouse team."

Though the 'Life is a Rollercoaster' hitmaker has had a great year, he admits he and his 35-year-old wife struggle to get a lot of time together.

He said: "Married life is brilliant, unbelievable and our honeymoon was amazing and perfect.

" But we're both so busy that being in each other's life is the hard part at the moment."
