Boyzone's singer Ronan Keating (21) and his model girlfriend Yvonne Connolly have been married in a secret ceremony in the US. The group is currently at number four in the British charts with All That I Need.
Its manager, Louis Walsh, said he only told fellow band members the news when they were reunited this week. "He is happy, and we are happy that he is happy," he said.
Keating, from Dublin, had taken a total rest from work on doctor's orders after three recent bereavements. His mother Marie died in February, his grandmother died shortly afterwards and two weeks ago his 16-year-old cousin died of meningitis.
