Jack Keating has broken his silence on the tragic death of his uncle.
Ciaran Keating, who was the older brother of Jack’s father Ronan, was killed in a two-vehicle collision on the N5 at Ballymiles last month.
His wife Annemarie, the driver of the other car, and the passenger were all treated for injuries in hospital – while Ciaran was pronounced dead at the scene.
In an exclusive interview with Goss.ie, Jack revealed how his family have been since Ciaran’s death.
The Love Island 2022 star told us: “We’re hanging together, we’re all sticking together.”
“It’s been a tough few weeks, but we’re holding it together for my dad, for my aunts and uncles, for my grandad… It’s been a big shock, but we’re pulling through.”
Ciaran’s funeral took place at St Patrick’s Church in Louisburgh, Co. Mayo on July 20.
During the funeral mass, Ronan performed his song ‘This Is Your Song’, which was written after the death of their mother Marie in 1998.
The Boyzone star said: “I shouldn’t be singing it in these circumstances, but we are and we will.”
He added that his brother’s children had made their dad “very proud”.
