Emma was just 20 years old when she won Miss Ireland back in 2010.
The model went on to finish in fourth place in the prestigious Miss World pageant.
After becoming a pageant queen, Emma relocated to the US, where she met her now-husband Andrew in Austin.
While she still works as a model, Emma also founded an online platform for women called WiLDE.
