The One Show's Ronan Keating breaks silence on son Jack's baby news as co-star jokingly calls him 'grandad'

Ronan Keating has broken his silence on news that his son Jack has become a father. Discussing his new role as a “grandad” on BBC’s The One Show on Monday, March 20, it was the first time the Irish singer and TV presenter had referenced becoming a grandfather at the age of 46.

After announcing what would be coming up on the show, co-host Jermaine Jenas quipped: “Well said, grandad,” and Ronan simply replied, “Oi”. Jermaine then added: “You’re a grandad now,” and Ronan confirmed the news.

“I am. My son had a gorgeous baby and Storm and I are grandparents,” said Ronan and Jermaine then asked: “But you prefer to be called something else?” Ronan then revealed that he like to be called, “Pops”.
