Ronan Keating gets engaged

Singer Ronan Keating has got engaged after proposing to his girlfriend Storm Uechtritz twice after meeting on the set of the Australian version of "The X Factor" three years ago.

The Boyzone star popped the question to his TV executive girlfriend of three years Storm Uechtritz twice, once while on a romantic holiday in Thailand and a second time in front of his three children upon their return to Ireland, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I proposed twice and she said yes both times, thank God. We've been together a few years now and knew we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together. I felt it was the right time," he told Hello! Magazine.

The 38-year-old singer's engagement comes just one month after his divorce was finalised following his split from his wife of 14-years Yvonne, with whom he has children Jack, 16, Missy, 14, and nine-year-old Ali, in 2011 after it was revealed he'd had a seven-month affair with a Boyzone tour dancer.

"Storm isn't just marrying me, there are four of us involved. Storm has an amazing relationship with the kids, which is very important."
