"I was hurt"Ronan Keating's emotional turmoil during new Boyzone ...

Boyzone star Ronan Keating has opened up about the emotional turmoil he felt when he first watched the band's new documentary series saying he was 'a mess'.

Speaking on ITV's Good Morning Britain, Showbiz presenter Richard Arnold caught up with Boyzone stars Ronan Keating and Keith Duffy ahead of the release of their eagerly anticipated new documentary Boyzone: No Matter What.

Asking Ronan and Keith how it felt to relive their early days of fame whilst filming the documentary, Ronan said: “When I watched it first, I was hurt, I was on the floor, I was a mess, I was an emotional mess. I watched it again, I guess I looked at it from a different point of view.”

As documentary Boyzone: No Matter What comes to Sky, Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, and Shane Lynch have stepped out as a group once again as their "harrowing, emotional" trip down memory lane premieres in London this evening. Mikey Graham was seemingly absent from the red carpet love-in.

Discussing band dynamics and previous frictions between members, Ronan added: “You watch it again and go, oh, he’s actually right. It’s hard to look at yourself in a negative point of view because you think you’re perfect.

"You think that all the things you do, I was right and he was wrong. You’re only 17/18, you’re going to make mistakes.”

Reflecting on the passing of their fellow bandmate Stephen Gately, Ronan went on to say: “It’s wonderful that we have this legacy for Steo, it shows this beautiful man that he was, that people, unfortunately because he died so young will never get to see.”

Keith added: “To think of the Steo that we would have known that was stressed out before he came out. He was worried and so stressed out over this whole thing, you know Louis Walsh coming out with these stories that he’s going out with Baby Spice just to protect him. If he could only have seen the support of the people at his funeral, it was incredible.”

Ronan went onto discuss former manager Louis Walsh as he said: “We wouldn’t be where we are today if it wasn’t for Louis and the opportunity that he gave us and the fight and dedication that he had to make Boyzone work.

"We owe him for that. But some of the things that went on after that, it’s very difficult, it’s very difficult for us. I hope that he’s found some sort of peace.”
