Muireann’s eagle-eyed fans get glimpse of rarely-seen fiance on romantic holiday

Muireann O’Connell’s eagle-eyed fans finally get glimpse of rarely-seen fiance as she jokes “didn’t think that through”.

The Virgin Media star and her long-term fiance are currently on a romantic break-away in Italy.

Muireann flew out the Puglia region of for the “first time in six years” and has been sharing snippets of her trip over on Instagram.

The popular presenter stayed at the luxurious hotel, Castle Elvira, which is located in Trepuzzi in the province of Lecce, over the weekend and absolutely loved it.

She shared some stunning photos in the breathtaking venue yesterday.

The hot host posed on the balcony as she watched the sunset while enjoying a margarita.

Muireann looked fabulous wearing a cream maxi dress from Seagreen and black sunglassed from & Other Stories.

She finished off her look with some stylish silver jewellery and wore her hair down.

Muireann raved about the hotel in the caption of her post saying: “This place is INCREDIBLE. It’s in caps so you know it’s true. Harvey & Steve, the owners, have done the most amazing job.

“And as for the sunset drinks on the castle roof where you just make friends with everyone. Brilliant @castle_elvira.”

The next photo showed Muireann smiling from ear-to-ear with a group of 15 people on the rooftop.

And fans were quick to notice she was sitting beside her mystery fiance, who she calls her ‘housemate’.

Muireann usually keeps her love life and partner under wraps but “didn’t think” she’d be caught out by the group photo.

Melanie wrote: “Lesser spotted housemate in the picture, wow.”

Muireann replied: “David Attenborough voice.”

Sinead said: “And the fans all zoom on housemate.”

Muireann remarked: “Didn’t think that through.”

Ian commented: “Oh I see the housemate.”

Brian added: “Wow. And Ah the housemate!”

TV TWIST

Muireann was replaced by Karen Koster, who left The Six O’Clock Show last November, on Ireland AM this morning as she’s away.

The 43-year-old took to Instagram to share her outfit details with fans.

In the post, Karen and Tommy smiled from ear-to-ear as they sat outside ready to talk all things Love Island with Orlaith Condon.

The Dublin native rocked a pink and orange playsuit that had a stunning belt feature. She paired the outfit with some open toed bright pink heels.

She got the outfit from Bow & Pearl and it retails on their website for €115.

However, the presenter felt her outfit was overshadowed by her microphone wire that peaked out over her shoulder for the first half of the show.

She captioned her post: “Microphone wire was hanging out for half the morning, but still so fun to be back @irelandamvmtv filling in for @muireann.o.

“A chat about Love Island with @orlaithcondon is always a win.”
