Jet-set life for Carol and Ian
It’s all smiles in the Sligo home of Dr Paula Gilvarry and husband Damien Brennan. Paula’s wonderful book Doctor on a Diet: Five Stone Lighter And A Whole Lot Happier is number three in the non-fiction charts.
The only slight drawback to the atmosphere of bliss in Yeats country is that Granny Brennan has not been well — “and needs more minding. So that is occupying us all”.
Also occupying Paula, apart from their home that is still on the market, is that she has lots of queries about cooking demos in the New Year.
The response to her book has been understandably so massive that should Paula do the cooking demos she will need to hire brothersin-law and RTE stars John and Francis Brennan to help out with the PR. In the meantime, Paula and Damien are looking at taking a quick holiday in Lanzarote in December.
Cork girl Carol Anthony and her football icon BF Ian Rush are spending Christmas in Qatar. Before that they are jetting to Mauritius on November 23 for a two-week sojourn.
Carol has just bought an apartment in Dubai — “not for leisure but for hard rental business”. How do I know this? Because Carol told me herself from Dubai where she is currently on business with her long-term beau Mr Rush.
