O’shea laying down the law
SCRUMMY 2
LOVE Island winner and Ireland rugby star Greg O’shea added another feather to his cap this week.
The Limerick native, who won the 2019 reality series with Amber Gill, reached academic heights this week as he became the first ever recipient of the Fellowship from the University of Limerick Law Society.
The 25-year-old rugby ace, who recently passed his FE-1 exams, graduated from the university in 2017 with a law degree.
Announcing the news, the society said: “This award is being granted for outstanding achievement both inside and outside of Greg’s chosen field.”
Greg said he was “honoured” with the nod from his former stomping ground.
And rightly so.

Joanna joked: “All going well mid-march but you know the saying; man plans, god laughs. Anyway I just bought a dress for the occasion. Nice to be missed!
