Former Mrs Brown’s Boys star says he has ‘nothing to do with’ tax scandal

It has absolutely "nothing to do" with him.

Yesterday, it emerged that Mrs Brown's Boys actors were involved in a tax scheme which saw them launder money overseas. The scandal saw the actors "allocated trusts and cell companies based in Mauritius" where they could transfer their money without paying any tax on it. And now, former star of the TV show, Rory Cowan has admitted that he was approached by accountant Roy Lyness to use his services, but he insists that he turned him down. According to independent.ie, Rory said that he had "absolutely nothing to do with" the scheme that some of his former co-stars are caught up in. He also said that it was about "four or five" years ago that he was asked to participate, but he had "no interest." The Guardian named Amanda Woods, Paddy Houlihan, Martin Delany, Fiona O'Carroll and Danny O'Carroll as part of the scandal, which has also seen high-profile figures such as Bono and Queen Elizabeth II exposed for hiding their money from the taxman.
