At the end of 2023, Keith Duffy and his wife Lisa made headlines after a close friend claimed that their marriage was on the rocks.

Neither the Boyzone star nor his wife of 27 years ever made reference to the rumours, but it appeared to be a quick reconciliation as they were spotted supporting one another in public once more just months later.

Now, nearly two years on, Keith has finally lifted the lid on the ups and downs of his marriage, gushing that he and Lisa 'are absolutely fantastic' these days.

'Myself and Lisa are absolutely fantastic. Whatever we went through, we never spoke about it to anybody else,' he told The Sun. 'It was somebody close to us who told the papers we weren’t together.

'Like any relationship, a marriage, like anything, people fall in and fall out. When you have a great foundation of love and friendship and support, it’s much easier to build back up again, and thankfully, we celebrated 31 years together this month.'

When news of Keith and Lisa's split broke, the couple had unfollowed each other on social media, but the Boyzone star later refollowed Lisa on Instagram.

It was then reported that the singer had moved out of their €1.3million home just before Christmas 2023 and was said to be 'in bits' over the separation.

It was a short-lived parting of ways, and it seems Keith and Lisa are inseparable as within a few short months, they were spotted together on multiple occasions.

The couple went to a romantic Coldplay gig together in August 2024, alongside their adult children Jay, 29, and Mia, 25, as well as Jay's girlfriend Lucy Tallon.

Lisa also joined her kids to support Keith's latest music venture with his bandmate Brian McFadden, a Boyzlife tour.

She was also by Keith's side as he announced the return of his foundation's Christmas ball in December on World Autism Awareness Day.

And of course, Lisa couldn't miss an opportunity as a Boyzone WAG to support her hubby at the NTAs in September 2025.
