AISLING BEA, THE unofficial Kween of Kildare, is an absolute gem on social media.

Aisling’s fears, obsessions and thoughts on twitter identify with Complete-Aislings in all of us. If Miggeldy Higgins wants to cement his second term, Aisling should be his running partner. #AislingforVicePresident

Here’s just a taster of some of the most relatable AF tweets over the past 6 months:

1. Her brexit fears are all of our brexit fears

I worry the UK & Ireland will never come to an understanding about a border because the UK can't understand Irish basics like giving children scratch cards to mark significant occasions or making them to look into grandparent's coffins whilst adults sit nearby eating sandwiches.

2. She’s got caught up in Markle mania too

It started off as a way to see what Megan Markle was like & now I can't stop watching Suits- even though they say "DON'T YOU REALISE? I DID THIS FOR YOU!" every 3 minutes & they never change out of their boring suits. (Except once someone wore a hoody to show they were on drugs).

3. Diplomatically, she’s is legit the only one to hold a candle to Miggeldy Higgins

Also Americans, please note "C**t" is a term of endearment in Ireland - e.g. "He was a lovely, kind, C**t, and he will be missed."

4. Eating etiquette is something she thinks deeply about

I’m sat alone on a train opposite a man whilst eating a banana. It’s very hard to gauge what’s the right speed to eat it at to suggest “I’d just like us to be friends”. 🍌

5. On joining the mile high club…

I’m doing a pilot! But enough about my love life, I’m also working on this which is nice. https://t.co/Ne0mN4ASDa

6. Her take on the last match of the Six Nations 2018 season

It’d actually be rude of England to win the rugby today. Like someone announcing their engagement at a friend’s wedding.

7. Zero patience like the rest of us

Ten minutes waiting for a loved one at arrivals is very exciting. After eleven minutes, it’s so boring I’ll happily take anyone who looks remotely like my sister.

8. She’s a real romantic at heart

-Love you.
-Love you too.
-Whatcha get me?
-My undying love.
-Ha! Seriously though.
-Roses, chocolates, a picture of us made out of doves & dinner on a yacht in Paris.
-Perfect
-Whatcha get me?
-My smile.
-Ha! Seriously though.
-A handjob on a yacht in Paris.
-Perfect.

9. Life isn’t black and white with her

The upside to a childhood without any male influence is that you assume you run the world, the downside is that you never get to eat anything from a jar, only easy-to-open packets.

10. No one has summed up the Irish genetics better

#HappyStPatricksDay y’all. You can tell I’m a real Irish girl because I’ve orange arms, but white hands. 🍀🌾👏🏻🍊 pic.twitter.com/Y8QJ6tPxsA

11. Her sarcasm is next level

My shower is broken & the plumber has told me to have a "quick bath" instead. I have told him if he didn't have time to grab a sandwich, he should whip up a quick roast dinner with all the trimmings & home made Yorkshire puds instead.

12. When she made us realise that journalists and your aunties at Christmas are the same breed

I get asked about having children so much in interviews, when we're talking about my achievements, views & work, that I'm beginning to think I might have HAD some children, forgotten & the journalists are worried that I've left them somewhere. #HasAnyoneSeenMyChildren?
