O’Donnell children reduced to ‘couch-surfing’ with friends

The adult children of solicitor Brian O’Donnell have been reduced to couch-surfing since being forced out of their Gorse Hill home, which their father has refused to vacate.

Bruce, Blaise, and Alexandra O’Donnell were living in the Killiney mansion up to Sunday of last week, when they had to leave on foot of a High Court order. Their father and mother flew in that weekend from their new home in England and decided to stay on in the property, resulting in three days of barricades and court proceedings.

While all this was going on, the siblings were “camping out” with various friends, and say they have yet to find alternative accommodation.
