Boyzone star Ronan Keating celebrated the end of his string of Glasgow gigs with a slap-up Chinese meal.

The Irish singer, 32, and his wife Yvonne, who had earlier in the day cheered on his pal Robbie Keane at Celtic Park, was joined by the striker at the Ho Wong in York Street after his last of three Clyde Auditorium concerts on Saturday.

Owner Tony Cheung, 56, said: “Ronan comes here every time he’s in Glasgow.”

As reported in the Evening Times last week, Ronan paid tribute to his late Boyzone pal Stephen Gately at Thursday night’s Glasgow gig, the first of his UK tour.

He said the sudden death of the singer in Majorca in October, aged just 33, was “the hardest thing I’ve ever had to deal with”, before performing In This Life, the song he sang at Gately’s funeral.

The Ho Wong has only just re-opened after a burst pipe caused £50,000 worth of damage.

It is also at the centre of a row over relocation. The building has been bought by the Dubai-based Jumeirah Group, which wants to open a six-star hotel on the site at the junction with Argyle Street.

A public inquiry in September backed a compulsory purchase order on the site, but the Ho Wong’s owners, who have operated at the address for nearly 25 years, don’t want to move.
