Irene From ‘Home And Away’ Has Been Tweeting A Lad In Kerry And It’s Made Our Day

How brilliant is this? As you all know, we’re absolutely massive fans of Home and Away here at Her HQ so when we saw Irene Roberts tweeting a lad in Kerry, we nearly lost the run of ourselves altogether. Lynne McGranger, the actress who plays Irene in the long-running soap, was tweeting a lad in Ballybunion by the name of Tommy Walsh.

@TommyWalsh1 hey Tommy how's it going? Miss seeing your cheeky mug around the grounds. Hope you're well and happy xxx

Unfortunately for her, she thought she was in fact tweeting a different Tommy Walsh, a Sydney Swans player. What happened next is gold.

@LynneMcGranger Hi Lynne, great to hear from you but I think you might be mixing me up with Tommy the former Sydney Swans player? — Tommy Walsh (@TommyWalsh1) August 12, 2015

A few cheeky lads got involved...

Irene must be back on the grog, she's got the wrong @tommywalshkor I'll act as mediator https://t.co/0ufrHFfPRp
