Miss Ireland credits famous dad with teaching her how to deal with online trolls
Caoimhe has been chosen to represent her country at the Miss World finals next year.
The 24-year-old beauty queen said watching her former Ireland coach dad navigate haters online helped prepare her ahead of the pageant.
She said: 'I think in any aspect, nobody likes to see a negative comment about themselves.
'I did see when my dad, obviously he was getting a lot of public scrutiny, and he was doing his best and he was doing an unbelievable job but you can't keep everybody happy and people are going to have negative things to say.
'But I am prepared that no matter what I do, there might be someone that will have negative things to say but the biggest thing I've learned is don't spend too much time reading into it.
'I find a lot of the time, with people having negative things to say, they might not be brave enough to put themselves out there like we are.'
The Co Louth woman, from Blackrock, also opened up about the 'hard work' she's had to put in over the last several months to be crowned Miss Ireland.
'I think the beauty part of it isn't the hard work. When you're there, everyone is beautiful in their own way,' she said.
'I dance. I've danced since I was five so in terms of fitness, I go to dancing every week. That's something consistent in my life.
'Then one of our sponsors was clear and brilliant and they gave us a lovely skincare treatment ahead of the final.
'In terms of the hard work, it was putting together and practising for the projects in the build up to the competition and the events that were on.
'I wouldn't say it was stressful, I do enjoy being busy but there were moments where I felt overwhelmed.
'Probably just keeping that balance. But I didn't mind it at all.
'My mam is brilliant. I have to give credit where credit is due to my mam.
'I've had that massive support system throughout my whole childhood and with Miss Ireland, she is someone I can lean on.
'She's incredibly proud and she feels like she's had a win nearly because she's been with me every step of the way.'
