Ronan Keating sparks concern for wife as star inundated with messages of support
Ronan Keating has shared a cryptic message on social media this week, with some fans expressing concern for his wife Storm Keating after he referred to a "challenge".
Boyzone star Ronan Keating has sparked worry among fans after sharing a heartfelt tribute to his wife Storm Keating on Instagram, alongside an image of a new tattoo. The 47 year old singer-songwriter posted a picture of the ink, which is said to represent a samurai warrior, and tagged his wife in the post.
In the caption, he wrote: "For you my warrior today and every day. My Stormy. A challenge ahead but your strength blows my mind. With you every step."
He ended the message with a loving note to his wife, saying: "Love you baby."
However, Ronan did not elaborate on what the "challenge ahead" might be, leading to speculation and concern among his followers. Many took to the comments section to send their well wishes, including some famous faces.
BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball commented: "Sending you all love and strength."
Natalie Bassingthwaighte, former Neighbours star and fellow judge with Ronan on the Australian X Factor, also responded: "Sending you both so much love. Hope she is ok."
Fans echoed these sentiments, with one writing: "Love and hugs. Hope she is OK."
Another added: "Awww hope Storm is okay. Wish you and your family the best."
A third follower reassured: "Hope all is okay, whatever it is - you got this Storm."

Many fans also took the opportunity to compliment the singer on his tattoo tribute. One person commented: "Beautiful tattoo [Ronan] - hope [Storm] is ok."

A third fan reacted by saying: "Hope Storm is ok, love the tattoo. Sending lots of love and positive prayers."
The former Boyzone member has a collection of tattoos, having estimated in a 2011 interview with The Guardian that he had twelve at the time. However, it's believed he has since added more ink to his body.
This includes the tattoo tribute to his wife Storm, which was featured in Monday's post. He first revealed this tattoo in 2022, sharing a photo of it on Instagram and explaining its significance in the caption.
Addressing his followers, Ronan penned in the post shared two years ago: "Say hello to my latest creation my Japanese samurai warrior called Storm. She is powerful but calm. Strong and quiet. She embodies everything my [wife] is."
