Imelda May has gushed over her “brilliant” boyfriend Niall McNamee.
The Irish singer first met the musician in London back in 2018, and the pair’s relationship turned romantic during the first lockdown last year.
The Liberties native gave a rare insight into her relationship during her appearance on Angela Scanlon’s Ask Me Anything on Saturday.
She said: “It’s going really so far, touch wood. I’m normally really private, I’ve had relationships that nobody has known about and they’ve come and gone.”
“And I normally keep things quiet but this one seems to have taken wings, gotten out there so that’s ok. So far so good. I take things in the moment.”
“He is a messer and he makes me laugh, he’s brilliant. And he makes me laugh a lot. We’re a good pair,” Imelda added.
Imelda, who divorced from her ex-husband Darrel Higham in 2015, is 19 years older than Niall.
Speaking about their age-gap in an interview with the Sunday Independent back in February, the 47-year-old said: “You can line things up as much as you want and follow the rules as much as you want.”
“If two people fall in love, that’s all there is and to have beauty in your life in any way, especially now, is a blessing.”
