Amateur boxer Kellie Harrington shot to fame when she won an Olympic gold medal in Tokyo, but when she arrived back to her homeplace Portland Row in Dublin’s north inner city last August, all she wanted to do was get into her bed.

“After coming back from the Olympics, I just got into my pyjamas,” says the 31-year-old.
