For some, nothing is more romantic than saying ‘I do’ to the person you love in private, rejecting that stress that comes with organising a lavish wedding day. And for Fair City star Micahel Sheehan, that’s exactly what he and wife Claire did.
After their original 2020 wedding plans were put on hold due to the pandemic, the two decided to tie the knot in secret in October 2021. Sharing details wit The Sunday World at Christmas, Michael said:
“I got married two months ago, Claire is her name”
“We originally canceled our wedding in 2020. Then we decided to pull the plug in the thick of lockdown”
“The hotel were very understanding, and we rescheduled for this year. We are together five or six years.”
Sharing that despite their original plans being changed, the day itself was still perfect. He told RSVP Live:
“It was a lovely day and we are very happy together”
The couple now live together, spending the entirety of 2020’s lockdown in their home in Kildare,
“She’s not a Waterford woman, I had to look further afield. We’ve no kids. I bought a house in Co Kildare two years ago, so I had the lockdown in the new house.”
Congratulations Michael and Claire!
