It was revealed that Michael Healy-Rae's DNA is pure Cork on the Late Late last night
RTE RTE
THE LATE LATE had an ~interesting~ segment as its main event for its Patrick’s Day episode last night:
They had Maura Derrane, Eamon Dunphy, Jason Byrne and Michael Healy-Rae on to be DNA tested to determine their ancestry.
And sure enough the most stereotypical Kerryman’s DNA turned out to be the most interesting
He was “100% Irish” but the majority of his DNA wasn’t from Kerry at all… it was from Cork
RTE RTE
Few dots in Kerry but look at that Cork region.
It turned out that Eamon was more Kerry than Michael
RTE RTE
He took the news well though?
“This is car crash television”
RTE RTE
It couldn’t have gone better for those watching at home
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
We were expecting a set of predictable results, but this shook everything to its core
If there was one man who was relying on a full Kerry DNA, it’s surely Healy-Rae

Top notch investigative work from Ancestry.ie.
Pure Cork boi.
