Boyzone star Keith Duffy pays touching tribute to wife Lisa on their 21st wedding anniversary

Boyzone star Keith Duffy yesterday paid tribute to his wife Lisa on their 21st wedding anniversary and said the pair were “only babies” when they tied the knot.

The Dublin singer and his wife said ‘I do’ on June 23, 1998 in Las Vegas.

Recalling their big day, Keith, 44, said: “21 years ago today I was sitting in the back of a big white stretch limo with Ro (Ronan Keating) and Steo (Stephen Gately) sipping JD for my nerves and because neither Ronan and Stephen could actually get served in USA, lol.”

“Rolling down the Las Vegas strip on route to the Little White Chapel to marry my childhood sweetheart and the mother of my son Jay, OK, yes we put the cart before the horse.

"We were only babies ourselves.”

The father of two gushed: “Feels like yesterday but now our son is the age I was then.

"And shortly after we were blessed with the addition of our wonderful daughter Mia. Now our bestest buddies in the world, Jay and Mia.

"Happy 21st Anniversary Smithy. Thank you for your counsel, your love, your patience our amazingly awesome children who are now our best buddies.

"As usual all my love from the other side of the world.”

Lisa also took to social media to wish her famous husband a happy anniversary, writing: “Happy 21st Wedding Anniversary @officialkeithduffy, remembering our special day in Vegas with our pals, blessed to still have each other and our beautiful family, will celebrate when you get home.”
