‘My second home’: Emily Ratajkowski is in Ireland and is having all the craic

Gillian Fitzpatrick

Although many of us had to weather unfavourable conditions today, looking at Emily Ratajkowski’s Instagram stories you’d think it was a serious cracker out there at the moment.

The model and all-round mega-ride is in Ireland to celebrate the man-of-the-hour, St Patrick.

The 26-year-old was born in London to American academic parents, but she spent her summers growing up in Co Cork, the lucky sod.

So naturally enough she was only dying to return for a bit of craic (not that we can blame her). Yes, Emily is currently back in Bantry – a place today she’s been describing on Insta (where she has close-to 12m followers) as her ‘second home’ (we were pipped to the post by Los Angeles, sadly).

And she’s a woman after our own hearts too: chatting to the Sunday Independent a couple of years ago Ms Ratajkowski said while she wasn’t averse to Guinness, she was “more of a Smithwick’s or Bulmer’s girl”.

All we can say it… if you’re around Bantry tonight, keep your eyes peeled for herself – not least as she seems well up for a selfie.
