Her world famous ex-husband is due to be married today, but this former model is clearly not holding any bitterness towards her ex who cheated on her with a backing dancer.

 

Yvonne Connolly, Ronan Keating’s ex-wife, was with the former Boyzone singer for 14-years before the marriage dissolved after he had an affair. However, rather than hold a grudge or any bitterness towards her former husband, the mum-of-three has said that she is proud of her “modern family”.

 

Talking about the split the 40-year-old said: "The word broken marriages and broken families is thrown around. When I found myself in that situation first, we were all on great terms but it was difficult." 

                           

 

"But the kids had grown up with a father who wasn't always there anyway. They were used to periods of time where they wouldn't see their dad all the time so they adjusted quite well,” she added.

 

Talking about changing back to her maiden name, Connolly, Yvonne said: "I could have changed it sooner. But I was determined that I'd change it when I felt ready and the kids felt ready. I mentioned it to my kids one day and they didn't see it coming. They didn't get it. They said, 'You're not going to be the same name as us?' From a kid's point of view, it's strange that your mum isn't going to have the same name as you when that's how you grew up."

 

Ronan Keating, is due to marry his girlfriend, Storm Uechtritz, in a lavish ceremony in Scotland today.
