THE GUESTS

‘ALL of our families are going to be there — everyone,’ said Ronan, and Storm is particularly excited to be reunited with her three brothers, her father and stepmother for her special day. The Boyzone lads will be there because Ronan said, ‘They better be! I’d be annoyed at them if they aren’t.’ Keith and Lisa Duffy, Mikey and Karen Graham and Shane and Sheena Lynch will attend, along with their children. Since Ronan and Storm got together, they have been hanging out with a whole new set of friends, such as British socialite Caroline Stanbury, star of Bravo TV series Ladies of London, who is expected to be there, along with Caroline and John Giddings, who run the IsleIsl of Wight festival. Ronan’sRo old pal Brian McFadden will be there — Ronan had even told him when he planned to propose, swearing him to secrecy. ThoughTh he put Boyzone together and managed them for years,y Louis Walsh has not been invited to the wedding. Ronan was affronted when Louis said he had been a diva in the band. ‘I think it’s obvious we don’t have a great relationship. Sadly, it was the way it went,’ said Ronan. ‘Louis has a tendency to say things. It’s about making things u up and there’s a level of bitterness that you see from that. It’s no life to be bitter and talking negatively about people — it festers in your soul.’ Ouch! More surprisingly, Brian and Pippa Ormond have not been invited. Ronan golfs with Brian, and he and Pippa were in Edinburgh last month at a Boyzone concert, socialising with Storm in the VIP area. ‘You won’t be seeing a lot of famous Irish faces there,’ says a source. ‘Ronan doesn’t hang out much with the old crowd any more.’
