We'll never not be excited by A-Listers visiting our country 😂
Emily Ratajkowski was in Ireland on holiday recently, and shared some lovely photos from her trip.
The actress and model actually has a long history with Ireland and has spent most of her summers in Bantry, Co. Cork, where her father is from. Her full name in fact is actually Emily O’Hara Ratajkowski!
Emily took to Instagram to show her followers how picturesque her visit was, including a sweet snap of her son Sly wearing an Ireland beanie.

In the photos, Emily and Sly are picking blackberries overlooking Lough Bofinne, a popular fishing lake in Co. Cork. No better countryside activity in the late summer!
While she was here, Emily stayed at her father's old farmhouse in Bantry, which he bought and renovated over 20 years ago.
The model first rose to prominence back in 2013 when she starred in the saucy video for Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines'.
She's since gone on to star in hit movies and TV shows like Gone Girl and Entourage. She's spoken often of her love for Ireland and her summers growing up here.
“Both my grandmothers are from Ireland and I have spent every summer in Bantry since my father, who is an artist, had the romantic idea 20 years ago to buy an old farmhouse on the west coast and renovate it,” she said.
“I go back any time I get the opportunity and I have many friends who I still hang out with in the local pubs. I have great childhood memories cow-tipping, going off and getting lost in the bog for hours and coming home covered in dirt.
“It’s so relaxed and everyone is so friendly. I’m more of a Smithwick’s or Bulmer’s girl than a pint of Guinness.”
She could be gone home now but keep an eye out for her if you're down in the West Cork region anytime soon!
