Oh this is terrible news. The worst. That voice. That insanely beautiful voice that could carry all the emotions in one line. Her bravery. Sinead was so loved by so many of us but she was also not treated well at all. I remember wanting her to do a song for a show I was making and being told she wasn’t right for their brand or whatever the fuck. I’m just feeling so angry about how she was treated. But over all just heart breakingly sad for her and her family
So happy I get to jump in the Irish Sea with my girls again. Here’s some photos. I’m equal parts thrilled and terrified but that’s the way it should feel I think

I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for the last couple of days and so happy for the show and all my sisters who are the most brilliant, supportive, talented beauties. And all the boys: the good ones and the baddies. The entire exceptional cast and our team of writers who we are so lucky to have. The production team especially @fayedorn and @johannknobel. The whole Merman family worked so hard and around the clock for this and I’m just really proud of everyone. All nominations amazing but @dearbhlawalsh Emmy one made me scream 💚💚
Thank you @televisionacad can’t believe it
