The Love Story of Michael Collins & Kitty Kiernan
Description
Gem Pursuit is doing a special run of Irish-themed episodes for the month of March!
In this first one, we explore the courtship and romance of Michael Collins and Kitty Kiernan - a love story set against the backdrop of Ireland’s fight for independence.
Through published letters and diaries, we journey into the private world of one of Ireland's most significant political and military figures. It reveals a man deeply devoted to his beloved. At the heart of this story lies a symbol of love and loyalty: a diamond engagement ring.
Alyce examines the evidence to build up a picture of the piece in question while Matthew explores a possible family connection to its sale!
Join us as we uncover the story behind one of Ireland’s most iconic engagements.
