Gráinne back in business

LADY in red Gráinne Seoige faced the cameras for the first time since the split from her husband became public but was giving little away.

Looking radiant after a short break in Marbella, the mother-of-one refused to be drawn on her future.

Tanned and relaxed after the holiday with her estranged husband, Stephen Cullinane, and her son, Conall, the RTÉ presenter ignored repeated questions about the break-up of her eight-year marriage.

Posing for the cameras during a photoshoot with Vodafone, the 36-year-old just smiled for the cameras and thanked the media for respecting her privacy.

While there was no official word from the couple on the split, sources claim the relationship had been on the wane for some time, with speculation that the demands of their high-profile careers might had taken its toll. Mr Cullinane is a former sports editor at TV3 News and is the founder of production company Touchline Media Ireland.

The couple still live together in their Wicklow home.
