First Dates Ireland premiered last night on RTÉ2, and as predicted it was full of awkward moments, heartbreak and of course, love.
From crazy Frederica (who is most definitely 25), to heartbroken Amy, the first episode of the popular dating series provided a serious amount of entertainment for everyone on social media.
Of course, one of the best parts of watching First Dates is keeping up with the public’s commentary on Twitter through the hashtag #FirstDatesIRL, so we’ve gathered our favourite tweets about last night’s episode.
