McGeeney wedding turns into real labour of love

All-Ireland winning captain Kieran McGeeney has seen his share of big day dramas, but few could trump his wedding this week, when his groomsman’s wife went into labour during the reception.

Armagh man McGeeney, 42, married Kerry girl Maura O’Rahilly in her native Ballymacelligott on Thursday before over 300 guests travelled to the Malton Hotel in Killarney for the reception.

However, shortly after the wedding party’s arrival in Killarney, Bernice Fagan, the wife of McGeeney’s groomsman, Mark Fagan, felt the pangs of labour coming on.
