Doireann Garrihy has revealed she’s taken her relationship with boyfriend Paddy to the next level, as they recently moved in together.
The pair, who have been dating for almost a year, made the decision at the beginning of lockdown.
Doireann moved out of her sister’s house at the start of March, and while she intended to live alone for some time, the restrictions surrounding Covid-19 would have made it difficult for them to see each other, so the couple decided to move things along a bit quicker.
Speaking to our sister mag Stellar, she said, “The night that Leo said this is it, this is lockdown, [Paddy] was over with me and we had had a glass of wine. So I was like, ‘Well, you can’t go anywhere now.’
“It was due to be just me [living here] for a few months and then all going well, maybe he’d move in, but we’ve been thrust into it now and it’s been a great learning experience. He’s a serious cook, so much so that he won’t actually let me do it. I’m like, grand!”

The 2FM star recently revealed she’s on cloud nine, and couldn’t be happier with how things are going for them both.
“He’s great fun and is my rock,” she told VIP Magazine. “It’s nearly a year now since our first date. He grounded me very much from the get-go.”
She continued, “I think in this industry, it would be easy to attract someone who wants to be part of the madness.
“But he was like, ‘Sure, let’s go on a few dates and see what happens’. And I was like, ‘Oh [laughs]…’ Paddy also slags me, and I need that.”
