IRELAND’S SEXIEST OLDER MEN

-

GALEN WESTON

Polo-playing, couture-clad and impossibly handsome, he stays under the radar which makes him even more attractive.

GABRIEL BYRNE

Voted one of the sexiest men alive by People magazine. You need only look on his dedicated fan sites at what women want to do to him to see why he deserves his place on the list.

PATRICK BERGIN

At 6ft 3in with Heathcliff looks, his slightly twisted nose makes him even more attractive. And of course every woman loves a screen bad boy; as he says himself: “Women respond very positively to the villains I've played.”

DERMOT DESMOND

From rugby to television, so many boys have tried in vain to grow a moustache in the name of charity — but leave it to this old master to get it right. Man enough to pull off pink. A friend once quipped: “The softest thing about Dermot is his teeth.”

PADDY McKILLEN

His Bernard Arnault-like style made women everywhere sit up and take notice. The mind of a developer with

the heart of a philosophe­r.

JOHNNY RONAN

Every woman loves a man who acts on impulse. Probably a warlord in a previous life, he is famed for his territoria­l as well as female conquests. There's a whiff of sulphur off that salt-and-pepper beard.

MICHAEL O’LEARY

There's a fine line between loathe and lust. Who needs style when a Machiavell­ian flair and a 'couldn't give a toss' attitude can hold a woman's attention?

BONO

If you ever want to see hardcore sex appeal, check him out in a silk boxing hood at the beginning of Pop Musik, jaw stuck out in a “let’s be having ya” pose. Team that with good deeds and charm and you've got the whole package.

LIAM NEESON

The gentle giant, we have all heard the rumour about why Mr Neeson is so popular with the ladies. And let's not forget there's the way he saved all those Jews.

LIAM CUNNINGHAM

A handsome bit of rough with a sexy voice and the soul of a poet.

PIERCE BROSNAN

Sexier than most men half his age, a real man with charm and confidence; 60 and still landing the lead Hollywood roles.

PAUL KELLY

He has that Don Draper air about him. Old-fashioned, cool, dapper and unflappabl­e. A touch of class.

DAVID DUFFY, AIB

In AIB he is known as 'Dishy Dave', and with good reason. His midAtlanti­c accent adds to the allure.

PAT BYRNE, CITYJET

The aviation industry is known to produce mavericks, and he is a pioneer. There’s a touch of the firebrand about the way he conducts himself.

JOHN MAGNIER

An earthen feel of having just come from the stables, combined with a dapper English way of dressing. That mischievou­s look from underneath his hat is famous among smitten women.

DARREN CLARKE

He has that distinctiv­e twinkle in his eye, and there's nothing sexier than someone who enjoys a good time. He has sensitive undertones brought about by his personal trials.

GAVIN O’REILLY

Tanned and big, with a touch of the Kennedys about him, there's no wonder he always has a beautiful blonde by his side. He also has a loyal circle of good friends around him, a strong sign of a good man.

PADDY McNALLY

McNally, who dated the Duchess of York and squired socialite Becky Few-Brown, has always done well with the opposite sex. He has a passion for skiing in Switzerlan­d and shooting at his estate in Wiltshire; the action of the Formula 1 adds to his flair.
