The Boyzone star announced that his wife Storm had given birth to a boy on Instagram on Thursday.

Along with a picture of the new mum looking radiant, Ronan wrote: “Incredibly excited to announce the arrival.

“We’re all bursting with love for the newest little member of our family!”

He continued: “Feeling very blessed to be daddy to this little man and the luckiest man in the world to be husband to such a strong, loving and warm-hearted woman and add to my beautiful family.”

Fans were quick to share their good wishes, writing congratulatory messages – and questioning what the tot will be called.

Ronan first met Oz-born Storm on the Australian X Factor in 2010, where he was a judge and she was the show’s producer, and they quickly became friends.

Behind the scenes, Ronan’s marriage to childhood sweetheart Yvonne was in turmoil – after they struggled to get over his seven-month affair with Boyzone backing dancer Francine Cornell in 2009 – and in late 2011 they split after 14 years of marriage.

Shortly afterwards, Storm – who is now focusing on her lifestyle blog and fashion projects – went through her own heartache when her three-year marriage to finance chief Tim Ivers, 35, ended in 2012.

Ronan and Storm found solace in each other and started dating a few months later.

By April 2015, they were engaged – a month after Ronan’s divorce was finalised.

They married in Scotland that August and Ed Sheeran sang their first dance song.
