Ronan Keating Emotional After Marriage Split

After the announcement of his split from his wife of 12 years,  Ronan Keating was struggling with his emotions during a gig over the weekend.

The singer stunned his fans by making a statement about his break-up from wife Yvonne earlier this month.  His spokesperson is insisting the separation was "amicable".

Keating, who has children with Yvonne,  has been accused of having an affair with a dancer while on tour in 2009, while his rep has revealed the pop star is struggling "really hard" to cope with his troubled personal life.

The sadness was evident as he performed in Zurich, Switzerland. According to reports he hit a drum kit in anger and turned his back to the audience between songs at the SkyDance festival on Saturday, May 22.

Keating ended the night  with his hit song "Life is a Rollercoaster", then he said to  the crowd, "Thank you, Zurich, until the next time... Life truly is a rollercoaster."
