Speaking to MailOnline, Ronan said: ‘Storm and I try to find time for each other, that’s what it’s all about.
‘All of us live such crazy, hectic lifestyles, it’s easy to forget about each other. We make sure we don’t. And I think that’s really special and really important.
He joked: ‘So whether it’s running off to the bedroom to watch a boxset, or whatever else! Having some time together to watch a tv show or catch up. Or saying we’re going out for some dinner tonight just the two of us. Just having some time together.

‘Because we’ve got the older kids and we’ve got the younger kids. It’s a busy household and we’re constantly working, both of us.
‘We’re ships passing in the night sometimes, with so much work on our plates. So I think making time for each other is the key.’
He also gave a health update on Storm, after she experienced temporary paralysis last year.
The star has previously explained how she developed a rare condition called Cauda Equina Syndrome that meant her nerves were compressing on her spine so she couldn’t feel anything in the bottom half of her body.

The horrifying experience occurred in March 2021 as she underwent surgery after suffering from a prolapsed disc, and Storm recalled how she woke up one morning and found that parts of her body were ‘completely numb’.
Coronavirus restrictions meant that Ronan was unable to visit his wife in hospital as Storm recalled how he was left ‘crying in the car’ outside during the terrifying ordeal.
Opening up on the ‘tough’ year, Ronan said: ‘She’s doing great. It was a tough year last year for her, with what she went through, absolutely frightening.
‘I believe that the stress and the work and pressure that came from building this house, led to what happened to her. It was terrible, stress is a terrible thing.
But he revealed: ‘So she’s been through the mill, but she’s fighting fit and back to work now, and thank god she’s good, she’s great.’
The couple share two children together, Cooper Archer, four, and Coco Knox, two, while Ronan shares three other children with ex-wife Yvonne Connolly: daughters Missy, 21, and Ali, 17, and son Jack, 23.
Ronan says the pair aren’t planning to have any more kids, saying: ‘Storm and I feel very lucky, we’re very happy very loved. We just want to raise all of the children as best we can. Five kids like my mum and dad.’
His two eldest children have also been in the spotlight, with Missy competing on Dancing With The Stars, while Jack appeared on Love Island this year.
When asked about how he feels about his kids joining the showbiz industry, Ronan said: ‘I have a very good relationship with them all, we speak and we talk and discuss stuff and go through it.
‘They look for advice and listen, so it’s all good. As long as people are willing to learn, I think trying these things is really important. As long as they take the advice and listen, which they have done, I’m proud of them.
‘Storm has worked on the other side of the camera as a producer, so they have the best of both worlds, they know what to expect the front and the back.’
