She is already a mum to a daughter, who was born in 2019. However, she has never shared her little girl’s name.

Caitriona is extremely private about her personal life.

She wants to ensure that her family is protected.

In an interview with Irish Country Magazine, the news anchor explained why she keeps her personal life out of the spotlight.

“I feel like so much of our lives are shared now through social media that you have to keep something back for yourself.”

Fans of the journalist sent lovely messages after she confirmed her pregnancy.

One said, “Congratulations Caitriona – indeed spotted on Six-One the other day. Looking great.”

“Warmest congrats , Eagle eye up here in Donegal too,” one added.

Another viewer said, “A massive congratulations indeed Caitriona! Some lovely positive news to hear.”

“Gorgeous news Caitríona, huge congratulations to you and your family! Wishing you a very happy and healthy pregnancy!”

Congratulations to Caitriona and her family.
