IT'S BABY NO3 FOR RONAN & YVONNE; STAR COUPLE TELL OF DELIGHT
DELIGHTED Ronan Keating is to become a father again for the third time and said yesterday: We can't wait.
His gorgeous wife Yvonne revealed she was pregnant and baby No3 was due in September.
And Ronan, 27, said: "We are absolutely thrilled and Jack and Marie can't wait to have a new baby sister or brother."
Yvonne also admitted it wasn't love at first sight when she laid eyes on her future husband. The former model explained: "Myself and Ronan met when we were kids, briefly.
"Then we met again years later, around the time that Ronan was presenting Eurovision. We were friends for about a year and a half and it gradually progressed to falling in love.
"We're married almost seven years now. I'm not really surprised how life has turned out. Things happen gradually, like falling in love, so you never think, 'How did I get here?'.
"And we have two gorgeous kids. Jack is six and Marie is four. Jack started school last year and Marie will start in September.
"She's very confident and all psyched up about school, which is great. It means I don't have to worry about her. It's a new adventure and I'm excited for her.
"Jack's a typical boy - he loves to get out and play football and get dirty.
"He's great fun. Everyone thinks their child is different but they're all fairly typical.
"I hate to see the kids sitting around the house.
"I love to get them out but at this time of year the weather is often battling against you. For a treat, they love to go to the movies.
"Myself and Ronan like to do regular stuff together. We love to travel and love to discover new places.
"We also love to put our feet up at home. We're movie buffs, we see every movie that comes out. And we've got friends who love movies too, so we hang out together."
Yvonne opens the first House of Fraser department store in Ireland next week but insisted she was just like any other working mum.
She told VIP magazine: "Full-time modelling - been there done that.
"I'm representative of what women go through today.
"Let's face it - whether you work or not, whether you're at home minding the kids or out doing a job or both, everyone's busy.
"I'm a housewife and a mother and I also work in a number of companies, both property and spin-offs from Ronan's business.
"I love property and really enjoy getting involved in buying and selling. I do the groundwork.
"I suppose there are elements of my life that are bizarre but day-to-day, it's like everyone else's - you make the dinner for the kids and fill the dishwasher.
"I tend to go from one extreme to the other - it's either tracksuits or evening gowns.
"I find that evening gowns don't really work on the school run."
