Wife of Mayo GAA star announces she is pregnant
The couple on their wedding day last year
The wife of Mayo GAA star Aidan O'Shea, Kristin McKenzie Vass, has announced she is pregnant with their first child.
Posting a sunny pic from Elafonissi Beach in Crete, Kristin, a model and business consultant at Grant Thornton, declared: 'So excited to meet our Baba' as she posed with her baby bump.
Ahead of their wedding last year, Aidan and Kristin announced their engagement on Instagram in the summer of 2023 with a sweet photo outside Ashford Castle in Cong, Co Mayo.
Kristin flaunted her new diamond for the snap as she wrote: 'It's happening…. Big fat 'YES' from me @aidoxi #engaged".
According to Aidan, his other half didn't suspect a thing when it came to him getting down on one knee.
"Kristin told me that I didn't give it away and that I didn't look too nervous about it,' he told RSVP Live.

"I wanted to make sure that Kristin didn't cop the photographer I hired to capture the moment before I asked the question. That was my only concern, so I had to time it nicely."
Aidan also opened up about how he and Kristin met 'randomly' six years ago.
"We met randomly in Dublin in 2017. We kept in touch after that and then she moved to London.
"I visited her a few times and then one thing led to another. That's how it panned out for us and we're still together so something must have gone right."
In May of last year Kristin had celebrated her 'last rodeo' with a boat party in Barcelona to celebrate her Spanish hen.
The bride-to-be shared photos of the sun-blissed session on the boat out at sea where she appeared all in white and held aloft by a burly sailor.
In earlier pictures the girls, including fellow GAA wife Orla Lorenza, could be seen hanging at the airport with Kirstin embracing the bridal look in a head-to-toe white ensemble.
The couple were then married in Kristin's home county in August, surrounded by friends and family.
Kristin had announced that wedding bells were on the way, as she kicked off her week with facial treatments to make sure her skin was glowing for her big day.
She then shared a clip of her and her fiancé in the car, which was 'full to the brim', accompanied by Diana Ross' song I'm Coming Out as they finally headed off to their wedding venue.
'Kerry here we come,' she wrote, adding bride and groom emojis.

And Kristin's pals made sure to spoil her ahead of her nuptials as she shared a video of a bouquet of flowers and a 'wedding of the year' gift bag left on her bed.
The goodies lay beside a personalised balloon with the words 'Kristin and Aidan's wedding day – 9th August 2024' printed on the front while the Kerry and Mayo crests were branded on the back.
In a wedding update, Aidan remarked: 'Can we do it all again?' alongside pictures are from day two of the celebrations

Advertisement Insiders say their chemistry is set to sizzle, with bosses planning a slow-burn love story that could send shockwaves through the village. It's a fresh start for Belle after a string of heartbreaks – but will things finally go smoothly, or is trouble already brewing? Emmerdale fans distracted by glaring baby bump blunder as actress fails to hide her real-life pregnancy Fans cannot wait to see the new storyline unfold. Taking to Reddit, one fan wrote: "Really happy with this Kammy gives off classic Dingle vibes and will be great to see happiness for Belle."

Kammy has an absolute heart of gold and he'll bring some much needed cheer to Belle's life." Soap's most harrowing teen storylines We take a look at other harrowing teen soap storylines from soaps Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks. Belle Dingle's schizophrenia in Emmerdale - Belle's (Eden Taylor-Draper) traumatic journey in Emmerdale took a dark turn when, after accidentally killing her best friend Gemma at just 16, her mental health began to spiral. The storyline, which saw Belle struggling with her grief and guilt, showcased her battle with hearing Gemma's voice inside her head, leading to a dramatic decline in her well-being. Hannah Ashworth's anorexia in Hollyoaks - Viewers were horrified as they watched Hannah (Emma Rigby), a seemingly innocent teen, spiral into dangerous behavior, starving herself in an attempt to achieve what she thought was the ideal body. As Hannah's condition worsened, the storyline became more intense, culminating in her being hospitalised for two months as she fought for her life. Bethany Platt's grooming ordeal in Coronation Street - Vulnerable schoolgirl, played by Lucy Fallon, was at the centre of one of Corrie's darkest storylines to date when she fell under the spell of her older boyfriend and sexual predator. The controversial scenes saw Nathan groom and manipulate the 16-year-old before coercing her into sleeping with his friends, with one of them raping her. Whitney Dean's abuse from Tony in EastEnders - Since the age of 12, she had been in a twisted relationship with her stepmum Bianca's boyfriend, Tony King. The predator had groomed young Whit (Shona McGarty), making her believe she was in love and planning to run away with him. On her 16th birthday, the traumatised teen finally revealed the years of abuse to Bianca. Tony was swiftly sent to prison sentenced for 13 years. Belle's love life has been anything but smooth sailing – from her toxic relationship with killer Lachlan White, to the heartbreak of losing Jermaine and the mental health battle that followed. She later fell for Ellis Chapman and had a rocky romance with Jamie Tate, who left her high and dry before vanishing from the village. Advertisement More recently, Belle tied the knot with Tom King, but their whirlwind marriage quickly turned dark as his controlling behaviour left fans fearing for her safety. Now, with Kammy on the scene, viewers are hoping Belle finally gets the happy ending she deserves – but in true Emmerdale fashion, it's never that simple. Meanwhile, Kammy burst into the village earlier this year, nicking a quad bike and landing Ross Barton in hot water. Since then, he's been working at the garage, showing off his skills — and a cheeky streak. Advertisement Now, with romance rumours swirling, Kammy could be sticking around for more than just mischief.
