Influencer Niamh Cullen has hit back at an online troll who criticised her for having fun eight months after her husband’s death.
Niamh was left devastated after her husband Jamie Gill passed away in November, 2025 after battling cancer, just days after the couple celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary.
The Dubliner has always been open and honest on her social media about navigating the loss of her husband just 12 months into their marriage.

However, this weekend, she decided to let her hair down with friends and attend All Together Now festival in Waterford.
But on Sunday morning, Niamh took to Instagram to share a message from an unnamed social media user criticising her for having fun.
Replying to one of her Instagram Stories, the person said: ‘What happened to a period of mourning at least?! Usually a year before acting as though nothing happened.’
Niamh captioned the snap: ‘God forbid I slip out of my reality for a weekend. A hoochie basher over here.’

The influencer followed up, adding that she was gonna have ‘an EXTRA WHOOPER big ball today.’
It’s not the first time Niamh has faced cruel criticism, with another message sent to her earlier in the year when she holidayed in Lisbon.
Responding to a TikTok Niamh shared to her Instagram Story from the beach, the message read: ‘Your posts are so weird.

‘One minute the grieving widow. The next literally showing your hooch. Honestly, don’t get the vibe.
‘Perhaps just drunk as all your other posts just show you drinking alcohol!’
Niamh shared the message to her Instagram, responding: ‘God forbid I’m on holidays trying to have a nice time with my “hooch.”’
