Yvonne Connolly is a doting grandmother.
Her son Jack Keating welcomed his first child last year and the little one is being spoiled by the Keating-Connolly brood.
Jack shares baby Maya with custom sneaker artist Keely Iqbal, although they are no longer together.
Yvonne got to dote on her daughter over the weekend, admitting that she was “blessed” to spend time with her.

She shared several snaps of the tot taking after Yvonne and her auntie, Ali as she got to ride horses in the Irish countryside.
“Feeling blessed to spend quality time this weekend with my granddaughter Maya,” she wrote on social media.
“She was kept busy to say the least and is now obsessed with ponies !! Who would’ve guessed.”
Ali was quick to comment: “I missed feeding the yard this morning without my helper.”
While Maia Dunphy wrote: “Oh this is magic Yvonne!”
Ali Keating is an accomplished equestrian and has turned her passion into her career after completing her Leaving Cert last year.
The teenager previously told VIP Magazine that her college course is her “plan B”.
“I love my family and I’m so grateful for everything that I’ve been brought up with and all the amazing people I’m surrounded
by,” she told us.
“But, the horses are something I’m going to try to do on my own. I want to make it, and I want to do it in such a way that I can say
I did it on my own.
“There’s a lot of negativity with people saying, ‘Oh, you’re only this because of so and so’, but, I want to stand on my own two feet and know that I put in the hard work and had the determination.”
Now it looks like baby Maya may be following in her footsteps.
