Now the full extent of the bust-up between the once-close pals is laid bare in a savage recording in which Ronan, 47, opens up on his long-held loathing for Louis, 71.
The recording was passed to The Sun after Louis last week labelled him “a p***k” while chatting in the Celebrity Big Brother house and sniped: “Ronan hasn’t had a hit record since he sacked me.”
At the height of their row in 2006, the boyband star can be heard on the tape ranting: “He hurt me, he really hurt me and he knows it.
“I don’t have any time for the guy. We’re a million miles from each other.

"I’ve no respect for Louis because he has none for me. He was very jealous of me.
“I had to sack him because he wouldn’t manage me.
“He’s a very selfish character. It’s bullsh** man. He’s a bullsh***er.”
The interview was conducted by biographer and veteran celebrity interviewer Rob McGibbon.
