Kellie Harrington’s girlfriend, Mandy Loughlin has shared her pride with her long-term partner’s Olympic win, admitting that she secretly knew she would do it all along.
Chatting on the Ryan Tubridy Show on RTÉ Radio, Mandy said that Kellie has it all, something that’s rare to find in one person.
“It is so rare to find everything that Kellie has together”
“She brings 110% to whatever she does. She brings the craic, she brings passion and excitement. If you meet Kellie and you are talking to her, she just makes you want to be a better person.”

Mandy went on to say that she rarely watches any of Kellie’s fights, as she finds it too difficult. However, she says that Kellie’s Olympic journey has been “like a dream unfolding from day to day”, and she even went to Kellie’s Portland Row for her final saying the atmosphere was “just magical”.
Kellie and Mandy first met 13 years ago in Bray boxing club.
