Love Island rugby star and champion boxer team up to promote Irish milk

Rugby sevens player Greg O’Shea and world boxing champion Kellie Harrington

I see the NDC has some new recruits in Love Island star Greg O’Shea and world boxing champion Kellie Harrington.

The pair are to be ambassadors for the National Dairy Council’s new ad campaign: “Everything starts with milk”.

Before young O’Shea became known for his telly appearance on Love Island, he was a professional rugby sevens player, making him and Harrington a good choice to promote Irish milk across Europe.
