    Going on the amount of coverage given to their recent trauma, it would have to be tango tanned monstrosity on the left. She seems to have suffered the worst atrocity in Ireland since Pippa O'Connor fell off her horse.

    Katie French, because she was a model and overdosed on cocaine. It's not her fault though, she just got some bad shit.

    Well its pretty impossible for us to have a national sweetheart since as soon as one of us does well, they are immediately pilloried, bemoaned, begrudged and generally slagged off by the rest of us.

    We don't have one. We'll probably never have one. I think at one stage Sonia O'Sullivan might have been? Rosanna Davison is too disliked by so many people to ever be it. I'd like it to be Imelda May.....maybe Saoirse Ronan could be if she continues to do well? She seems like a little brat though.

    Katie Taylor

    It was Michelle de Bruin at one stage but that certainly ended sourly
    And then Cian O'Connor and his beautiful girlfriend were held up as a dream couple. Drugs again ended that

    Maybe we don't want to be disappointed again

    She is no brat, she just has incredible confidence in herself. Not that usual in Ireland

    Saoirse Ronan? Id say her or Katie Taylor. A lot of people being mentioned are barely known outside of Leinster rugby circles.

    Also someone was very unfairly critical of Katie Taylor shes an inspirational sports figure and comes across as being intelligent, sensible and even though a boxer, pretty.

    Would have said at one stage it was Sonia O'Sullivan and before that Sinead O'Conor.

    She's probably a spelunkers dream girl at this stage.

    ...And Irish!
    Both parents are Irish.
    She was raised in County Carlow - moved there when she was three years old apparently.

    In a nation with a healthy over supply of cynical fúcks, it's impossible to have a sweetheart type figure.
