Walking The Dog with Emily Dean

Cecelia Ahern (Part One)

Episode notes

Join Emily and Raymond in London's Regent's Park for a walk with the international bestselling author Cecelia Ahern! 


Cecelia has a dog called Buddy, he's a standard poodle with a regal attitude, who is back at home in Dublin while Cecelia is in London working - but we think we need to plan a trip to Ireland because it sounds like he and Raymond would get on VERY well. 


Cecelia grew up in Malahide with her sister, mum and dad - before her parents divorced. It was an unusual childhood, because Cecelia's dad is Bertie Ahern - the high profile Irish politician who went on to become Taoiseach! 


We learn all about Cecelia's fascinating story - from when she attempted to get into Eurovision to writing her debut novel, PS I Love You at the age of 21 and the whirlwind experience of the book becoming a worldwide hit. 


Cecelia's new book - Into The Storm is available now! You can buy your copy here!
