Ronan and Yvonne giving a speech at Missy's 21st birthday
Ronan Keating and Yvonne Connolly reunited to celebrate their daughter Missy’s 21st birthday on Sunday night.
The influencer threw a big party at the popular venue House Dublin, which was attended by her closest friends and family, to mark the occasion.
Missy had been competing on RTÉ’s Dancing With the Stars just hours before her birthday bash, but sadly became the latest celebrity to be kicked off the show after the judges decided to save singer Erica Cody in the dance-off.
Missy’s parents, Boyzone singer Ronan and model Yvonne, who got married in 1998 before divorcing in 2010, joined forces to give a sweet speech in honour of their daughter on the night.
Their touching words were filmed by the birthday girl’s Dancing With the Stars professional partner Ervina Merfeldas, who shared a video of the speech to his Instagram account.
“I just want to say a big thank you for being here tonight, for being here for Missy Moo,” father-of-five Ronan began as his current wife Storm looked on.
“Storm and I are very proud to be here tonight.
He joked: “It's been a hell of a night for you Missy. We won't talk about it, we'll move on.
“You're 21, you little rascal. That's it, I've got no say, off you go.”
He then passed the microphone over to his ex-wife Yvonne, who added: “As a mother, I'm very proud and I have to say I'm so happy to see so many Malahide people here tonight.”
Ronan had previously paid tribute to his little girl with a sweet Instagram post on Friday, which was her actual birthday.
Sharing a photo of the pair, he wrote: “Happy Birthday to my Missy Moo. This picture says it all. We laugh Moo all the time. My family are my world, my kids are me.

“I am so bloody proud of you Sweetheart. You walk into a room and the place lights up. You are my sunshine.
“I cannot believe you are 21 the years have flown. But you have blossomed into everything I could ever want in a daughter and more.
“Storm and I love you with all our hearts. We know you are ready for the world now moo I just don’t think the world is ready for Missy. Love ya sweetheart.”
