Baby news is a delight for Ahern
 TAOISEACH
Bertie Ahern is set to become a grandfather for the first time next summer.
The Irish Taoiseach’s eldest daughter Georgina and her husband and
Westlife popstar Nicky Byrne announced last week that they are expecting
their first child.
A statement from the couple said: “Nicky and Georgina are delighted
to announce they are expecting their first child next summer.”
The couple — who have been married three years — are said
to be “over the moon” and “absolutely delighted”
by the news.
But they are keeping the exact month of the baby’s birth a secret
for now.
The young couple told their respective families the good news a while
back before announcing it publicly.
The Taoiseach expressed his delight at the news in an interview on RTÉ
Radio.
He said: “I’m delighted for them. I think we all have to plan,
not just for our children but for our children’s children and I
suppose that shows that’s not too far away.”
In the past couple of days, Nicky has hinted in the media that a baby
could be on the cards for himself and Georgina, who is a fitness instructor
and business graduate.
He said: “We have been together since we were about 16 and we always
said that when we feel the time is right, we’ll start thinking about
having kids and we think that maybe we’re at the stage now.”
