Transgender woman Kellie Maloney on her plans to visit matchmaker Willie Daly

Former boxing promoter Frank Maloney plans to visit Irish matchmaker Willie Daly next week, but learning to be Kellie Maloney is her priority, says Margaret Jennings.

WHEN 62-year-old transgender woman, Kellie Maloney, arrives in Lisdoonvarna, Co Clare, next week to talk to matchmaker, Willie Daly, she won’t hold out much hope of finding immediate love.

Although British-based Kellie, who completed her gender reassignment in March, is arriving for The Outing — the LGBT music and matchmaking version of the famous festival — she says she doesn’t expect to find a partner, be they male or female.
