Congratulations are in order for Amilia Keating and her husband Conall as their family has grown again.

Amilia has announced the wonderful news that she’s welcomed her third child, a baby boy, into the world. 

The Fair City actress shared the news of her son’s birth on social media and revealed the unique name she and Conall chose for their bundle of joy. 

Taking to Instagram, Amilia posted a gorgeous photo of her and her new arrival at the hospital, moments after he entered the world. 

She captioned the sweet post, “Bowie Ciaran Keating. Our family is complete”, followed by a lightning strike and heart emoji.

“Ami!!! Love you guys”, penned writer Tara Flynn. 

The name Bowie is notably known for being connected to the hit singer-songwriter David Bowie. The moniker is said to be derived from a Gaelic nickname meaning ‘yellow’ or ‘fair-haired’. 

The Fair City star, known for her role as Katy O'Brien on the RTÉ soap, recently shared an insight into her pregnancy when she unveiled a gorgeous bump photo to social media. 

“Ready when you are”, Keating wrote as she cradled her blossoming baby bump.

Penning a heartwarming tribute to her husband, Amilia said, “4 years married, (Almost) 3 kids and I still fancy the pants off you @c.a._keating. We are a team. I love you. I’ve got you. Always xx”.

The pair are also proud parents to their sons Sonnie, who was born in 2021, and Reggie, who they welcomed into the world back in 2019.

While David is already a father-of-two, this is the first time that the couple will become parents together.

For his official pregnancy announcement, David chose to share a sweet snap of themselves on the award show’s red carpet, with the 31-year-old expectant mum sporting a criss-cross olive gown with a matching hood.

“We have big news to tell you! The most important release of the year,” David teased in the caption of his post, alongside several cry-laughing emojis.

It is not yet known when David and Jessica’s little one is due to be born, or if they will be welcoming a son or daughter.

The happy couple first started dating back in 2015, one year after David parted ways with his ex-wife Cathy. The former couple had been married for over 20 years, having tied the knot in 1992.

In 2021, it was reported that David had given Jessica a promise ring as an alternative to an engagement ring, as he previously stated that he “no longer believes in marriage”.

Slánlus soothing salve developed by Margaret Lynch was brewing for some time.

The killer of school teacher Ashling Murphy has been given a whole life sentence for her murder.

Last year, on the afternoon of January 12, the 23-year-old was out jogging in her hometown of Tullamore, Co. Offaly when she was attacked and stabbed to death.

Last week, Jozef Puska was found guilty at Dublin’s Central Criminal Court. The jury delivered a unanimous verdict, after hearing around four weeks’ worth of evidence.

Ashling, who was a recent graduate and a talented Irish traditional musician, had never met Puska before he killed her in broad daylight.

Puska, who is originally from Slovakia but had been living in Co. Offaly at the time of the murder, made no comment as his sentence was handed down to him earlier this afternoon.

During his trial, in which he chose to take to the stand in his defence, the 33-year-old claimed that he was trying to ‘help’ Ashling, and argued that she had been attacked by another man.

As he delivered Puska’s sentence, Judge Mr Justice Tony Hunt described his future in prison as being "richly deserved".

During his victim impact statement in today's hearing, Ashling’s boyfriend Ryan Casey became emotional as he spoke of how he will “never get to marry her”.

"Because of you, I will have to carry on without her. Because of you, I will have to remember her longer than I've known her,” he directed towards Puska.

After attending the murder trial each day, Ashling’s immediate family spoke to the media last week and expressed their devastation at their loss.

"The judicial process cannot bring our darling Ashling back, nor can it heal our wounds, but we are relieved that this verdict delivers justice," Ashling’s brother Cathal Murphy stated.

"It is simply imperative that this vicious monster can never harm another woman again,” he added at the time.

Meghan Markle has returned to Hollywood!

Last night, The Duchess of Sussex mingled with an array of stars as she walked the red carpet at Variety’s Power of Women event. 

The annual celebration, which highlights the accomplishments of women in the industry, was also attended by the likes of singer Billie Eilish, actress Emily Blunt and broadcaster Oprah Winfrey.

In an interview with Variety before the event, Meghan chose to reflect on her past and future relationship with the world of entertainment.

Meghan, who stunned in a pale pink dress and a slicked-back bun, stated that she was “thrilled” to be back in the world of Hollywood.

The 42-year-old, who shares son Archie (4) and daughter Lilibet (2) with the Duke of Sussex, then reflected on the recent rise in popularity of legal drama Suits.

Before she met her husband, Meghan starred on the show as Rachel Zane. The actress subsequently left the series for royal life in 2018.

The show concluded for good one year later, and since its arrival on Netflix, 45 billion minutes of Suits have been streamed.

“Isn’t it wild?” Meghan exclaimed about its growing popularity, before she was asked for the secret behind the “phenomenon”.

“I have no idea! It was great to work on, such a great cast and crew. We had a really fun time. I was on it for seven seasons, so quite a bit,” she recalled.

“But it’s hard to find a show you can binge-watch that many episodes of these days, so that could have something to do with it. But good shows are everlasting,” she added.

Meghan was then quizzed if she has any upcoming projects in the pipeline, following her Netflix docuseries debut with Prince Harry last year.

“We have so many exciting things on the slate,” she teased, concluding: “I can’t wait until we can announce them, but I’m just really proud of what we’re creating. My husband is loving it too, which is really fun.”

The Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly has revealed that Ireland is ‘on target to eliminate’ cervical cancer by 2040. 

The announcement came this morning as the Minister marked Cervical Cancer Elimination Day of Action, a global initiative to eliminate cervical cancer.

Currently, in Ireland, about 300 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer every year, and 90 will die from the disease. 

The World Health Organisation has defined the ‘elimination of cervical cancer’ as fewer than 4 cases per 100,000 women, making cervical cancer rare. This would reduce the number of cases to the extent that it would no longer be a public health problem. 

Looking at data in Ireland, including HPV vaccination rates, screening coverage and population data, it has been revealed that Ireland can reach this goal by 2040.

Speaking about the finding, Minister Donnelly explained, “Today is a significant day, not just for women’s health, but for the health of our population. We can now say that babies born today will reach adulthood in an Ireland where we expect to have eliminated cervical cancer”.

“HPV vaccination for boys and girls is a game-changer on our road to elimination, and I’m proud that Ireland was one of the first countries to introduce HPV vaccination through the National Immunisation Programme in 2010, as well as being among the first to adopt HPV cervical screening in 2020”.

Donnelly continued, “We are now in a strong position to exceed the WHO global targets by announcing 2040 as the date on which we expect to achieve elimination in Ireland”.

“The remarkable progress to date illustrates significant work on the National Cancer Strategy goals of cancer prevention, early detection and access to timely treatment, which is helping to save lives and improve health”.

A new roadmap has been published to show Ireland’s next steps, which will start with a national public consultation in 2024. This will develop an action plan to ensure Ireland is on track to eliminate cervical cancer as a public health problem by 2040.

Shona Manderson has revealed she’s been in a secret relationship with a co-star for the past few months. 

Shona is known for her appearance on Married At First Sight UK earlier this year, where she was matched with Brad Skelly. 

Shona and Brad’s relationship didn’t work out and they were removed from the series, but during the reunion episode, which was filmed back in June, Shona met Matt Pilmoor.

While Matt was paired with Adrienne Naylor during the reality show, Pilmoor had already ‘broken up’ with Adrienne ‘weeks before’ he met Shona at the reunion. 

Five weeks after meeting at the reunion, Shona and Matt decided to meet up for their first date, and two months later, Matt asked Shona to be his girlfriend. 

Opening up about her relationship with Matt for the first time to OK!, Shona explained, “We have a really healthy, happy, safe, fun, relationship – I really appreciate Matt so much, it’s what I deserve, we deserve each other”.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Matt Pilmoor (@mattpilmoor)

“I’m proud to be his girlfriend and it just works”, she went on to say. 

Revealing that it was difficult to keep their romance private, Manderson revealed, “Matt would be driving and I would be in the back, we would be walking around Nottingham and I'd be all the way over there, we were like secret agents on a mission”.

They were then asked if they wished they had originally been matched together, which Matt responded to by saying, “We had to do what we had to do, my experience was good but we were meant to go on those journeys to find each other”.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Matt Pilmoor (@mattpilmoor)

“Being together from the start would have been incredible but I think it happened this way around for a purpose”.

He added, “It just works, I didn't expect it and when I first saw Shona I didn’t think we’d end up together, I thought she was very attractive”.

Now that the news of their relationship is out, Matt admitted, “It's going to be nice going places and being able to hold hands without having to worry anymore. Shona agreed by adding, “We're excited to be free”.
