How Michael Flatley Really Met Niamh O’Brien

Michael Flatley and Niamh O'Brien are being called a "whirlwind" romance. But how did they really meet, and how long did it take? In this video we go through the sourced timeline: the Riverdance set where the Mirror and IrishCentral say they met in 1993, the 2005 party at Michael's house that he described in a 2007 HELLO! interview, and the wedding in Fermoy on 14 October 2006. We also look at why the dates don't agree. Dublin Live and the Daily Star say the couple were together only "a few months", the Mirror says about four months, and the Irish Times prints a New Year's Eve date that cannot sit alongside an October 2006 wedding. We show the arithmetic and label it clearly as our own reading, not a correction any outlet has published. Everything here comes from named outlets and Michael's own words, including his 2007 autobiography as quoted by the Irish Times. There is no speculation about her illness. The couple's 20th wedding anniversary falls on Wednesday 14 October. Subscribe to Scand Wave for more celebrity news explained plainly, with the sources on screen and the speculation left out.
