I can&#8217;t wait.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Both Blathnaid and Charlie&#8217;s family support network are all in Wicklow, so the move back to their home town makes more sense.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We&#8217;re both from Wicklow, so we knew we&#8217;d eventually move back. We want to be closer to our families; both our parents are in Wicklow, so it will be so much handier to have them nearby,&#8217; she told the RT\u00c9 Guide.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1763939059_227_bla2.jpg\" alt=\"Blathnaid Treacy and her baby boy, Jack.

The house were moving to is a new build, so were at the mercy of their timeline and getting in to do the snag list. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;But hopefully, it all lines up, otherwise we&#8217;ll be staying with my parents for a while. They don&#8217;t know that, they&#8217;ll read it here,&#8217; she said laughing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We won&#8217;t know ourselves. We&#8217;ve lived in a two bed, a pretty compact house for so many years, but with the arrival of Jack, we&#8217;ve just outgrown it. We&#8217;ve loved, Stoneybatter so much, but the house is closing in on top of us.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Radio and TV presenter Blathnaid Treacy has shared the reason why she and her family are leaving Dublin&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":524520,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[321,93,61,60],"class_list":["post-524519","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/524519","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=524519"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/524519\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/524520"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=524519"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=524519"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=524519"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
