Viewers loved Lynn Harvey on tonight’s episode of First Dates Ireland
Dublin light flyweight Lynn Harvey [2(2)-1(0)] was a knockout with viewers on tonight’s episode of First Dates Ireland.
The Kilbarrack fighter won plaudits for her straight-talking and down-to-earth style as well as, of course, her good looks.
Harvey sat down for a friendly meal with bodybuilder Eamonn Baggott and, despite her date being a tad forgetful, seemed to have a good time.
The viewing public loved Lynn and took to Twitter to express their admiration.
Lynn has a very progressive outlook! ❤️🙌 #FirstDatesIRL pic.twitter.com/8nLiAY1wo0

Alas, Harvey felt that the two weren’t a match, and decided against going for a second date – although her forthrightness won her lots of respect, as she told the smitten Eamonn straight out, rather than allowing him go first.
Now that’s how ya do it! She gave it straight without any shit. I think I’d like to be rejected by her #FirstDatesIRL
