EXCLUSIVE! Eoghan McDermott opens up on rekindling romance with ex-girlfriend

The RTE star reveals why they previously split

Eoghan McDermott has opened up on rekindling his romance with former flame, Aoife Melia.

The RTE star explained to Goss.ie ahead of the 2FM Xmas Ball that he had first met the doctor when they studied at UCD – but with both taking on jobs in different countries, they eventually split.

“She was gone for seven years so it didn’t work because we were both too young to make that kind of distance thing happen,” he revealed.

Eoghan announced he had reconnected with Aoife through an Instagram post and admitted that it was lovely to be back together.

“That’s kind of what it is, what it said. We went out years ago, I met her at UCD,” he told Goss.ie about the Instagram post.

“She’s a doctor and she moved off to study medicine. It was around the time I had just got a radio show in London so I moved to London. We were just in two different countries.

“She’s just moved back and we randomly reconnected. It’s lovely, it’s really lovely.

“It’s like a dual sensation where we’re getting to know each other again. We’re new people but at the same time we’ve all this history so it’s lovely.”
