RTÉ news reporter Teresa Mannion was in Croke Park last Saturday to cheer on Meath to a memorable All-Ireland minor football final victory over Tyrone.
The Galway-based journalist is an aunt of Meath player John Mannion and was pictured celebrating with him after the Royal County won a thrilling contest by a point.
While John didn't see action in the final, his goal against Sligo in the semi-final helped them to get there. His famous auntie has been a familiar face on TV for many years, but is perhaps best known for her live report from a Storm Desmond-battered Salthill for RTE News in December of 2015.
