SURPRISE WIN FOR BLÁTHNAID Thurs 6th July 2007 |
| |
Expecting an entirely different name to be called out, Bláthnaid McKenna from Tullyeast, the Curragh, was surprised to hear herself announced as the new Miss Ireland at the Silversprings Hotel in Cork at the weekend. Bláthnaid, who is studying French and Italian at Trinity College Dublin, also works part time at the Curragh racecourse. The twenty-one-year-old lost her mother in the past year but was supported at the event by her aunt, Geraldine O'Hagan from Derry. Bláthnaid will now travel to China at the beginning of December to represent Ireland in the Miss World final.
