The couple have been together for over six years. Georgina's says, "Nicky is totally
, completely my life." They live together in Dublin. Nicky proposed to Georgina on Christmas Day 2002 and she said yes!... Well, they married now. Nicky and Gina

The Fairytale Wedding of Westlife
It was a family affair, this most of Irish
of weddings in France when Nicky Byrne of legendary boy band Westlife, married the Irish Prime Minister daughter Georgina Ahern. The 410 plus guests were all almost all family and friends but only the closest of friends, some of whom who also happened to be rock stars or play football professionally. There was not one politician in sight except for the father of the bride Irish Prime Minister, Bertie Ahern. It was a proper family affair and they had all come to celebrate in true Irish style. 
Westlife's Nicky Byrne and Wife Georgina Are 'Living the Dream'
For many parents, welcoming a new baby -- whether it's the first born or the fourth -- can be a somewhat daunting task, but when there are twins involved, the work can become overwhelming! After being together for more than fifteen years, Westlife singer Nicky Byrne and his wife Georgina welcomed twin boys and realized their close relationship had become a "different thing altogether." Admitting that "it was tough in the beginning," Georgina -- in a new interview with Hello -- shares that things are looking up for the happy family. "Now it's chaos, as Nicky says, but good chaos!" While the couple do not hide the fact that their fraternal twins -- Rocco Bertie and Jay Nicky, 17 months -- are definitely "harder," they say that the added responsibility is equally balanced by the double blessing. Although the boys have reached an age where they are able to "chat to each other and have a real little friendship," Georgina reveals that the built-in playmate has only recently been in their favor.
"There came a time when a few of our friends who had babies at the same time as us, said, 'It's getting easier now, isn't it?' And we looked at each other doubtfully [and said], 'Hmmm, is it really?'"
Nicky and Georgina are more than happy to take both the serene peaceful moments and the chaotic ones with their sons as they recall the twins' unexpected arrival. Born early and spending a month in the hospital, the couple were expecting premature babies, but admit that the eight-week early delivery date "caught us off guard." Once the twins were born, the parents were always "reassured that they were healthy," but were an emotional wreck after their babies were taken to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. "As a father, I found it very hard to see what Georgina was going through with the babies being taken away to a different part of the hospital. There were a lot of tears," shares Nicky. Between premature twins and watching "such tiny babies wired up in an incubator," the couple -- who view the situation as a positive, saying "we gained extra time with them because we had them sooner" -- made a mutual decision to forego a nanny in order to make up for their hospital stay. Georgina explains,
"By the time we took them home we just wanted them to ourselves. We seriously wanted all the nice cuddles for ourselves. It's lucky that we've had so much family around us. Both our parents and our sisters, all offering to sit for us and help us out."
Despite Georgina's dislike of "labeling [the boys] because they change so much every week," the couple admit that their sons certainly have some budding personalities. Jay, who tends to have a "calm character," is "slightly bigger" than his brother, but knows how to be a "little monkey too, with a real sense of humor." On the other hand, Rocco -- who was the smaller of the babies at birth and received his name because "from the start, he was our little fighter" -- definitely has spunk and likes to stay close to his parents, "wanting to hold your hand a lot."
Although the boys were born to a father who is a member of a hit pop group, according to Nicky, there will be no pressure on his end for his children to continue on his legacy in the music world. In fact, Nicky -- who once played for Leeds United -- says that if Rocco and Jay prefer the soccer field to the stage, he will offer his complete support. While the proud papa may not instill his love of music in his boys, he shares that they will be brought up with a sense of tradition, similar to his own childhood. Growing up with a strict mother and a lenient father, Nicky "was always taught that nobody is any better or worse than you. Others might have more money, but they are no better." Following his parents' example and wanting his own boys to "grow up honest and trustworthy," Nicky believes that the best advice he received as a child was from his father.
"My dad just said, 'Enjoy yourself and do what you do. But never bring the police to our door.' It was good counsel!"
Since welcoming their boys, both Nicky and Georgina have realized that quiet time for themselves is more and more infrequent, but with a positive attitude toward their relationship, the pair make an effort to "make time for each other." Hopeful to "take our first short break alone together just before Christmas," the couple are looking forward to adding more children to their family after they get "a lot more sleep first." Says Nicky, "We should not be shying away from adding to the family with two little boys around the house and no girls. I think we need a girl, but whatever God sends us..." In the meantime, the family of four is completely content with their lives together as they are "living the dream." Explains Georgina,
"We just enjoy the simple things in life with lots of extra bonuses. But best of all is having kids. I know people have them every day, but when you have them for yourself, you look at them and can't believe it."

Fresh from presenting Childline at the o2, Westlife's Nicky Byrne popped-out to the late party with wife Georgina. For a band on a year's sabbatical, the Westlife boys sure are very busy lately. X Factor, Childline, and creating a new girlband do the lads ever have a day off?

Wednesday December 17 2008
Georgina Ahern is in for a busy time in 2009 -- her Westlife hubbie Nicky Byrne wants to have five children.
The celebrity couple are now immersed in domestic bliss after becoming first-time parents 20 months ago, to twins Rocco and Jay.
Yet doting dad Nicky, who has taken a year off from the chart-topping band to spend time with his family, has revealed how he still wants to have three more tots.
"Hopefully we're not done yet -- we would love to have more kids. I have always said I would have five.
"I don't know if I can convince Georgina on that, but we'll see!" he laughed.
Nicky's now gearing up to spend the Yuletide season at home with his glamorous wife, their two boys and the rest of the Ahern family.
Secret
And he also revealed the secret of his success when it comes to his rock-solid relationship with the daughter of former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern.
"Without sounding cheesy and corny, if you love someone, you do make it work," he added.
Nicky had a brief reunion with his Westlife bandmates to perform at the thrilling final of the X Factor.
And he was gutted that manager Louis Walsh was pipped at the post when it came to nabbing victory with his JLS boyband.
"I don't think Louis has won it yet so it would have been good for him," he said.
"We were obviously disappointed for JLS after helping them to do a great performance to help them win it. When the decision was made, we thought we could have really helped them win. But with hindsight, I think that Alexandra really deserved it."
Nicky took centre stage at the new O2 Arena last night as he presided over the star-packed Cheerios Childline Concert.
All the biggest stars of the moment were out strutting their stuff on stage at the northside venue last night, as some 8,500 screaming fans cheered them on.

GLAMOROUS mum Georgina Byrne says having her Westlife husband back under her feet at home hasn't gotten old yet.
The couple are spending more time than ever together now that the band are winding down.
And with Nicky Byrne landing his own TV show on RTE, he's going to be at home for twins Rocco and Jay a lot more.
Even though the pair have been together during Westlife's longest running tours, Georgina says she can't ever get used to him being away from home.
Speaking to the Diary, the daughter of Bertie Ahern revealed she hates it when Nicky is on the road and she is thankful that they only spend a few weeks apart now, compared with months.
"I do really miss him when he's gone. When we were younger he used to be gone for really long periods of time on tour and that was hard. While lately I'm lucky because he only goes away for like a week or two. But when they went to China that was quite long again so that wasn't nice. But it's work at the end of the day and you have to take things as they come," she explained.

And thankfully Nicky's new career path is keeping him close to home. The Westlife star has signed up to be the host of RTE's new show Football's Next Star which sees him travel around Dublin, Limerick and Glasgow for filming. Georgina says the new job is a perfect fit for Nicky, who played for Leeds United when he was 16.
"He is absolutely loving it. He was a footballer so for him the whole experience is fun. They have started filming now and he will be going all around Ireland watching people play. It's for a place on the Celtic team so he has to go over to Glasgow as well. It's like exactly what he did so it's mad.
"He was playing football since he was one. He always played with his dad, his dad was a goalkeeper and he was teaching him. When he was 16 he went over (to Glasgow) so this whole show means a lot to him, it is a perfect fit for him," she said.
Georgina made the comments while promoting the Life Style Sports Trainer Scrappage Scheme. Now in it's third year, the scheme will allow people to trade in their old trainers and get 25pc off any full price ASICS trainers.
The Dubliner, who is taking part in the Great Ireland Run this year, said although she's not hugely athletic she loves being motivated.
"I'm not very athletic to be honest but it's a nice thing to do, it keeps me motivated. I did it in an hour and seven minutes last year so I'd really love to get under the hour this year, for me that would be a great improvement.
"I want to try and get faster and faster each time. It's nice to have a goal.
"The Trainer Scrappage Scheme is a great way to recycle your old trainers. Wearing the right footwear when you're running is very important," she explained.

Well-heeled Georgina steps out in ¤23 bargain boots
Wednesday April 04 2012
SHE'S one of the most stylish women in Irish social circles -- but even Georgina Ahern can't resist a Penneys bargain.
The glamorous mum-of-two, who is married to Westlife singer and aspiring TV presenter Nicky Byrne, was happy to leave the designer heels at home and opt for more affordable boots during a recent stroll on Sutton beach.
Chart-topper Nicky (33) shared a picture of his stunning wife on his social networking page and fans were quick to react to Bertie's daughter's choice of ankle boots, which cost her only €23 at the popular high street retailer.
"Mrs [Byrne] out jogging on Sutton Beach today -- where's your Asics trainers!!" Nicky wrote online.
Georgina, who recently celebrated her twin boys' Jay and Rocco's fifth birthday, delighted fans when she revealed she still shops on the high street, despite being half of one of Ireland's most glamorous couples.
The duo, who did not attend this year's VIP Style Awards, are spending more time than ever together now that Nicky's chart-topping band is winding down.
Lucky
Georgina recently admitted that she hates it when her hubby, who has signed up to host RTE series Football's Next Star, is on the road and is looking forward to having him at home more.
"I do really miss him when he's gone. When we were younger he used to be gone for really long periods of time on tour and that was hard, while lately I'm lucky because he only goes away for like a week or two," she said.
While the couple are staying practical with their wardrobe lately, Dubliner Nicky still likes to splash out on occasion.
He was spotted in February sporting a lavish Breitling Emergency watch worth a hefty €4,760, which is fitted with micro-transmitters designed to save the wearer if he or she is abducted.
Yvette Walsh, sales consultant from Weirs & Sons jewellers, told the Herald: "There is no other watch like it on the market, it's a very manly watch."

HER husband’s Westlife career may be coming to an end, but Bertie’s eldest daughter Georgina Ahern is about to step into the limelight.
The mum of twin boys had had a very low key launch to her own blog, by tweeting a link to her 23,817 followers inviting them to check it out - fitnesswannabe-choclover.tumblr.com.
Georgina (33), is married to pop star Nicky Byrne and they have five-year-old boys Rocco and Jay. She has long been a fan of fitness and is a qualified personal trainer.
On her new blog Georgina offers an insight into her life as a pop star wife, but she has her own feet firmly on the ground.
Today she writes, not about their VIP lifestyle but about the benefits of broccoli.
She admits that her family enjoy private caterers when on tour with Westlife, but back home in Malahide, Co Dublin, she prefers to prepare simple healthy meals with plenty of green veg.
“When we go back home to reality, it’s back to me!….my menus are not quite as exciting but at least when I’m feeding my boys heal
