Claudine Keane has opened up about her terrifying New Year’s Eve experience.
The Irish model and her husband Robbie were ringing in 2016 in Dubai when the celebrations were interrupted by a fire in the city’s Address Hotel.
The couple were enjoying the night along with their kids Robbie Jnr and Hudson and Claudine’s brother Ronan.

The Dublin native explained that they first thought the blaze was part of the New Year’s celebrations until the city soon became covered in a thick cloud of smoke.
“At first people thought it was part of the New Year celebrations until the blaze became so huge that an eerie darkness surrounded the other buildings near the flames,” she wrote in her Irish Daily Star column.
“I was shocked to find out it was The Address Hotel that was on fire. Rob and I got so many texts asking us if we were okay or near the fire. Miraculously nobody died.”

“It is incredible to think that you go away on holidays to celebrate New Year’s and end up trying to escape a blazing fire.”
Apart from the fire, Claudine said that she enjoyed a fantastic New Year’s alongside her family.
“On New Year’s Eve we went to a gala bash in the Atlantis Hotel. It was the most spectacular event I have ever been to. I have never seen such extravagance,” she said.
