Fast forward a few years and Chloe has rebranded herself as a savvy businesswoman and bought herself a pair of GIANT boobs to boot.

Posting a statement to Facebook on Friday, Ronan said: "I do not regret the end of my marriage, it's not what I wanted. There is a lot more to it than an affair and obviously it was broken well before then.

"Over the years I have kept my mouth shut and taken all the blame for the sake of my kids and my ex wife. But enough now. After six years I drew the line. There is a lot more to my situation than people will ever know and that's the way it should be. But there are always two people in a relationship and if it's not working there's more than one good reason for it."

He continued: "I will not stand for complete misrepresentation of my truth and my heart anymore. I've done that for way too many years and too long in the tooth for it. Please respect that everyone has moved on and better off.

"The only reason I've been polite enough to respond to any line of questioning about my past, is because I'm promoting my album and the essence of that album is authenticity and truth. I have nothing to hide. It's the first time in my life I've been able to write such a genuinely personal album and for someone to take my honesty and twist it into the opposite for a sensational headline is very upsetting. It goes against everything that I stand for and the music that I've created."

But that's not all. Posting another rant to Facebook, the 38-year-old asserted: "Not once did I say I was apologising to my ex wife or saying sorry for the affair. I said I was sorry for all the hurt it had caused, to which I truly am.

"Not once did I mention anything about regretting the end of my first marriage. My reflections on this are quite the opposite."

Ronan and ex-wife Yvonne were married for 17 years and had three children together - Jack, 16, Missy, 14 and Ali, 10.

He is now happily married to TV producer and model Storm Uechtritz.
