Ronan Keating's wife Storm Uechtritz is recovering well after undergoing an operation linked to a previous spinal surgery.

The Boyzone star's partner went under the knife three years ago to treat an issue with her back and she needed another procedure in May and Ronan has now revealed Storm, 42, was back on her feet just a day after the op.

He told RSVP Live: "Storm is a superstar and a powerhouse. She went through surgery which was related to the spine surgery she had three years ago. It was connected to that.

"She had a six-week recovery. She is incredible. She was walking the next day, which blew my mind."

Ronan previously worried fans by posting a cryptic message about his wife facing an undisclosed challenge - which turned out to be the operation she needed.

In a post on Instagram, he wrote: "For you my warrior today and every day, My Stormy. A challenge ahead but your strength blows my mind. With you every step. Love you baby."

Storm previously issued a brief update last month revealing she felt well enough to go out on a date night with her pop star husband. She posted a picture on Instagram showing the couple together at a party and wrote: "Date night with my love @rokeating ... Such a good time! It felt so good to be back on my feet and out of the house again ... I just wanted to say thank you for all the kind thoughts and well wishes - they meant a lot. I feel very blessed to have so much support around me and am delighted to report that I’m almost completely out the other side.

"Feeling as great as ever and ready to get back to business."

Ronan has also opened up about his admiration for his wife, telling Goss.Ie: " She’s doing great, she’s busy right now she has a lot on her plate but she’s doing really fantastic.

"She doesn’t stop, she’s the hardest working woman I know that’s for sure. I’m a lucky guy, I love her to bits I’m such a fan of hers, she’s incredible."
