In Carrigstown, Sharon has a dramatic family life with sister Ger and daughter Hayley. Not to mention her new flame, Tommy Dillon.
But in real life, Neilí is happily loved up with Ger and is proud to see her daughters Ghaliah and Juno follow in her footsteps.
She previously told RSVP Magazine: “I have two daughters and one of them doesn’t live at home anymore, they’re old now [jokes].
“Ghaliah is doing great, she’s doing Hothouse with Malaprop Theatre Company at the moment. She’s totally in the industry, she’s getting jobs.
“We did a development week together in The Gate during one of my weeks off and that was the first time we worked together.
“I was nervous about it because with families there can sometimes be a bit of tension.”
Neilí added Ghaliah is “very much her own person” when it comes to her career.
The mum of two explained: “She was always a dancer and a singer, that was her passion.
“She studied contemporary dance, but then she started to get acting work. I wanted her to do her own thing.
“I can advise her and make her aware of different things, but she’s very much her own person. She’s not leaning on me for things.
“My other girl, Juno, wants to get into acting too. She is studying at the moment.
“I told her to go for it, take herself seriously and not undermine herself. I wasn’t equipped for the business when I first started.”
