REMEMBER GARY AND Áine from the second episode of the new First Dates Ireland?

Sure you do.

He was the dapper lad from Donegal and she was the baker from Meath:

Before they had even met, she said she was into Northern accents – and the date went pretty well from there.

Everyone was in love

Whoops!

And for the Valentine’s Day that was in it, RTÉ 2 let us in on their news: they’re now officially together

Joining Katie and Ciaran in the pantheon of actual, real successful First Dates matches.

The Facebook video was shared yesterday, and teased out which couple it would be all the way to the end. If it was Paddy and Lauren, the sheer romance would have been too much to handle.

Sure they even shifted at the end of the date, so you knew things were going well even then
