Xpose's Aisling O'Loughlin didn't consider marrying cancer-hit boyfriend despite 60% chance of dying

Xpose host Aisling O’Loughlin didn’t contemplate marrying her long-term boyfriend when he was diagnosed with cancer.

The TV3 star’s partner Nick MacInnes was told he had leukemia and underwent chemotherapy at the start of this year.

But despite doctors telling him he had just a 40% chance of surviving, the 34-year-old admitted there was no thoughts of getting wed.

Now Nick – who is the father of their two-year-old son Patrick – has bounced back after ongoing weekly check-ups although is yet to get the all clear.

And Aisling doesn’t know if they will ever get married after the joint hell they’ve been through.

Asked if they will wed: “Not this year anyway but we will see. The way I see it is if we can hit a few more milestones, put in a few years, then we can say to each other: ‘This deserves an acknowledgement’.

“But I’m not too hung up on marriage and it was never my dream.”

And Aisling – who had contemplated having young son Patrick by herself after getting pregnant a short time into their relationship – won’t be having more kids.

“I did think about going it alone. You can’t tie anyone down but thankfully we are together and working it out together,” she told the RTE Guide.

“We work on our relationship every day like any relationship. We have our moments but we love being parents.

“We love the kids and love being a family. We know that there is so much to fight for… but I think I am done [with kids].

“I believe we have to concentrate on what we have with our limited resources.”
