Ronan and Storm (Image: stormykeating/Instagram) Storm Keating had to withdraw from her husband's annual charity golf event after falling ill last minute. Boyzone singer Ronan revealed she underwent back surgery several weeks ago. Fans expressed their concern when Ronan Keating shared a message on Instagram a few weeks prior, wishing his wife a swift recovery.
At The K Club in Kildare, during the Marie Keating Foundation's yearly golf fundraiser on Thursday, Ronan revealed what is wrong with Storm – but said she was on the mend and her sudden illness is nothing to do with her surgery, reports the Irish Mirror .

She went through surgery which was related to the spine surgery she had three years ago.
It was connected to that. She had a six week recovery." Back in 2021, Storm disclosed she underwent lifesaving spine surgery to avoid losing the use of her legs and bladder after she was diagnosed with a prolapsed disc in her spine.
She had been suffering from agonising back pain, with doctors diagnosing cauda equina syndrome - a rare and sever type of spinal injury that can lead to paralysis. And she admitted at the time that she is still not 100% better. On Thursday, Ronan praised his “incredible” wife, saying he was shocked to see her up and walk.
