The son’s name? Micheál Aodh Martin – the Fianna Fáil leader’s eldest son. A source tells DailyEdge.ie that Micheál is around 21 years old and not really active in politics or public life – preferring to stick to playing GAA and studying in his native Cork.
It turns out he plays for Nemo Rangers, Cork’s U21s and was nominated for a club All Star award last year.
The Facebook comments underneath the photo show just how much love is out there for Micheál Aodh
