Edit ProfileCareer
Born to Brendan and Noeleen Lynch, a mechanic and housewife, respectively, and raised in Donaghmede, North-east Dublin. In an interview, Edele talked about her bond with her twin: "She"s the greatest gift I"ve ever been given, and I think a lot of identical twins would say that. She really is my other half, and I"m not the same without her.
We"ve worked together most of our lives and when we looked back on when B*Witched split and we went our separate ways for the first time, that was like our first day at school.
I missed her."
In 1997, Keavy and Edele formed the girl group Butterfly Farm with their friend Sinéad O"Carroll. They began writing and recording together, but soon realised that there was "someone missing".
Upon Keavy"s suggestion, they asked Lindsay Armaou to audition and she played a tape recording of a song she had written. In 2011, she and Edele formed a new group, Barbarellas - "the result is a sizzling hot metamorphosis of womanhood, with lyrical wisdom and an enriched sound that demonstrates a true coming of age from these once popular-tweens.".
Keavy is also a party and function singer with The Collection/The Monaco Band.
In 2012, B*Witched, 911, Five, Atomic Kitten, Honeyz and Liberty X reunited for the ITV2 reality-documentary series The Big Reunion. Keavy took the lead role in a pantomime performance of Snow White in December 2005 at the Theatre Royal in Nottingham. Keavy returned to the stage in 2015, appearing as a forest sprite in Robin Hood And The Babes In The Wood at Woodville Halls Theatre, Gravesend.
In 2014, Keavy completed a degree, Bachelor of Science Reflective Therapeutic Practice to become a qualified humanistic counsellor.
Her practice is located in Kingston upon Thames
Keavy is patron of a mental health charity, Stand Down which offers counselling to those who suffer mental trauma as a result of military service. Keavy said "I am very excited and feel honoured to be a patron for Stand Down.
I think it is a service that is very much needed and a service that these men and women deserve. I may not agree with war but these men and woman are risking their lives everyday fighting for the country I live in and I am grateful for that."
In 2007, Keavy admitted that when B*Witched split up after the group was dropped by their record company, she suffered from depression and contemplated suicide.
In 2011, Keavy said "I don"t suffer from depression now.
lieutenant was that one time, but it lasted for way too many years. I should have got help.".
