ALISON: MY LOVE FOR DARREN

THE woman who played a central role in helping British Open champion Darren Clarke overcome the tragic loss of his wife to cancer has spoken of her joy of being engaged to the golf legend.

“My life couldn’t be better at the minute,” she told the Irish Examiner in a rare interview.

“I’ve met the most wonderful man, who is kind, generous, loving, funny, cheeky — keeps me on my toes. And I think we are a good match for each other.”
