Shane and Victoria were wed in November 2018 after decades together and an 11-year engagement, and they live in Dublin. In the past, Shane has discussed a number of health issues he has had over the years.
The singer used a wheelchair for many years following a fall in 2015 during which he broke his pelvis.
Speaking to Vice about the fall, he said: “I broke my pelvis, which is the worst thing you can do (….) I can’t walk around the room without a crutch. I am getting better, but it’s taking a very long time. It’s the longest I’ve ever taken to recover from an injury. And I’ve had a lot of injuries.”
Additionally, in 2016, Victoria shared that Shane was hospitalised for both pneumonia and a hip injury. She also said that being in the hospital for such a long time ultimately helped him on his journey to sobriety.
