The Dredge: Ronan Keating has a new girlfriend called Storm

We get our hands mucky with the best of the morning’s dirt.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, we dig through the celebrity dirt to bring you the best of it. Here’s The Dredge…

Ronan Keating’s new post-separation girlfriend is Storm Uechtritz, a former producer on X Factor Australia with a name that tabloid headline-writers all over the world are thanking their lucky stars for. (The Sun)

The pair were pictured together for the first time yesterday, revealing that she looks quite a lot like dancer Francine Cornell who you’ll remember Ronan had an affair with. Who in turn looked quite a lot like Yvonne Keating. Some would say having a ‘thing’ for slim, pretty, blonde women is a little bit unoriginal, but whatever.

Anyway there are reports today that Storm is considering moving to Ireland, where her name will cause many a snicker. And Yvonne is apparently relieved: she’s said to be “delighted he’s managed to move on”. (Irish Daily Star, Irish Daily Mirror)

The Words

Whee!: Kate Middleton’s only vocal response so far to the publication of photos showing her topless. The Duchess of Cambridge spoke as she and Wills were winched to the top of a 130ft tree during their royal tour in Borneo, as the future of the Irish Daily Star appears to hang in the balance. Meanwhile, the story hits fresh ew-inducing depths as an online porn company offers an “open checkbook” for rumoured footage of the royal couple being, uh, “intimate”. (Mirror, TMZ)

Could one sue them into oblivion, do you think? (Anwar Hussein/EMPICS Entertainment)

One-off and a mistake: What Robert Pattinson has apparently accepted Kristen Stewart’s smooching with married director Rupert Sanders was, amid reports that the pair are officially BACK TOGETHER. A source claims that they have moved into the same compound as Brad and Angelina and are “focusing on themselves”, for a change. (The Sun)

Authentic: What a Kilkenny family insist their link to George Clooney is, amid a row about the star’s Irish origins. Filmmaker Gabriel Murray has made an entire documentary about Clooney’s link to Abbeyleix, Co Laois – but a rival team of researchers say his Irish family are actually from Windgap, Co Kilkenny. OMG.
