RTE Traitors Saoirse Joyce engaged to well known Galway GAA star

The Traitors Ireland is back on RTE every Sunday, Monday and Tuesday hosted by Derry Girls star Siobhan McSweeney.

And while there is contestants from around the country, there was local interest for us as Galway girl Saoirse Joyce is one of those playing a faithful game in there - for the moment.

Saoirse is a HR specialist and is also the fiancee of Galway GAA star Niall Daly.

The couple started off the New Year in style when Niall dusted off the kneepads on a proposal trip to Killarney towards the end of the Christmas period.

Saoirse said yes to Niall, who she has been with for over ten years, to the backdrop of the scenic Gap of Dunloe.

Niall previously told The Irish Daily Mail: “We [have been together for] 11 years, so I think every trip we recently took, I think there was an expectation [that I would propose], but I'm pretty sure she had no idea this time around.

“We have no dates or anything planned yet, we’d both like to get married abroad. But not sure what will happen when the planning starts.”

On episode one, Dublin early years educator Carla, Kildare assistant professor Páraic and actor and drama teacher Fionula from Cork were revealed as the three traitors for this series with a fourth one being teased as the cliff hanger.

All other contestants will be Faithfuls unless they are recruited by the Traitors as the show progresses.

With contestants from all over the country, including Cork, Dublin, Donegal, Mayo, Galway, Tipperary, Westmeath, Leitrim, Carlow and Kildare, there is huge local interest in the new series.
