There’s a new man in Joanne McNally’s life, and no, he’s not AI… how dare you!<\/p>\n

In February, the comedian introduced her beau, Fionn<\/a>, to her online community, and his appearance raised some eyebrows, leaving Joanne with no choice but to make a statement.<\/p>\n

‘It has come to my attention that several media outlets are suggesting that my new partner, Fionn, is some sort of AI-generated fake photo opportunity and that I\u2019m not actually living with him in his six-bed, four-bath, south-facing penthouse in Walthamstow,’ Joanne began with a heavy helping of cheeky sarcasm. <\/p>\n

‘Firstly, how dare you,’ she quipped. ‘Secondly, regarding the topless issue that so many of you have chosen to focus on.<\/p>\n

‘Fionn has recently been diagnosed with a very severe form of ADHD, and THAT is why he is always exposed from the waist up, it\u2019s ’cause he forgets to bring a top, it\u2019s part of his condition, accusations of being “a thirsty c**t” or “showboating” are unfounded and frankly insulting to all and anyone struggling with neurodivergence.’<\/p>\n

‘Thank God Fionn has chosen to stay off grid for now and is not privy to the reckless rumours circulating about him personally and us as a real-life couple,’ Joanne, who always chats candidly about being a single woman<\/a>, continued. ‘Shame on you all, legal letters are coming.’<\/p>\n

Joanne’s pals banded together to feed into her hilarious prank, with Katherine Ryan and Emma Doran<\/a> expressing their delight at ‘meeting him’.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, James Kavanagh commented: ‘Me and William had a threesome with him last year, he\u2019s fantastic, enjoy xxx.’<\/p>\n

Dancing with the Stars judge Oti Mabuse commented: ‘Joanne, you had me putting my phone down and clapping,’ as her friend joled: ‘Jesus, he\u2019s image of his Da \u2026 sending love you two x.’<\/p>\n

Someone else teased: ‘Joanne!!!!!! I used to babysit Fionn. Lovely family. I\u2019ve a few stories I can tell you\u2026. Good on ya. I\u2019ll happily mansit him for you when you head out on single sundays xxx love you x’<\/p>\n

‘I kissed him in The George last week lovely guy,’ added another person while actress Danielle Galligan said: ‘Fionn is punching is all I\u2019ll say.’<\/p>\n

Of course, when Joanne appeared on the Late Late Show on Friday, March 13, host Patrick Kielty couldn’t help but probe the comedian about her ‘new relationship’.<\/p>\n

‘You seem a little jealous Patrick!’ Joanne quipped.<\/p>\n

‘Oh, yeah, that\u2019s Fionn, I invented him, he is absolutely mad about me, I resent the accusations that he is AI,’ she joked. ‘I mean, I\u2019ve dated guys with no intelligence, so\u00a0artificial intelligence\u00a0is great.’<\/p>\n

We think ‘Fionn’ is the best use of AI we’ve ever seen. It sure as hell beats Kieran Cuddihy’s jarring ‘AI girlfriend’<\/a> anyway!<\/p>\n
