Actress Aoibhinn McGinnity has admitted she was dying to meet a real life Trish when she was filming Love/Hate.
The Monghahn star played Nidge’s wife in the gangland series since the beginning and revealed she wanted to talk to a real gang lang wife like Trish.
“I always wanted to meet a real-life gangland wife, but it just didn’t happen,” she said.
“And after a while I just had to trust myself and not overthink it. With Love/Hate, the dialogue does the work for you.

“You don’t have to do much homework when the script is that good.”
Aoibhinn, 28, said she never likes to over-prepare when it comes to acting roles.
“I was told I work instinctively,” she told Image magazine.
“You can learn your lines inside out, but you really have to feel like her, and whoever you’re acting alongside.

“It’s important to plan, but you have to allow the situations or argument to develop, so it’s fresh and organic and that you’re not this robot actor.”
