5 hilarious Cork women you should follow right now on Instagram
Cork humour is a gift.
Like, if you can’t have the craic with a Cork person, there’s no hope for you.
We can take a slagging like no other county. In fact, we’re generally happier when we’re slagging ourselves, preferably in front of a large audience.
We also employ a special brand of sarcasm practically undetectable to anyone raised outside of Mitchelstown or Ballyvourney.
Need an extra dose of proper Cork humour in your feed?
Here are five hilarious Cork folk to follow immediately on Instagram…
1. Kyla O’Connor @kyla_mikyla_kyla
Milan doesn’t know what hit it since Ballincollig’s Kyla landed inside its ancient city walls. The wannabe cobbler (that’s an inside joke, she works as a bar tender) leaves no secret unshared in her daily videos about life, dating, making friends and finding work in Italy’s fashion capital.
Tune in for morning broadcasts from her nifty 19m sq apartment, shared with Circe the cat, and glimpses of real, unfiltered city life on nights out and morning jogs.

2. Grace Eiffe @golf_echo_charlie
NHS Nurse and ‘not corporate bitch’, Grace Eiffe is currently practicing in a specialist travel health clinic in London, where she lives with her husband Cormac. Expect top-quality banter on the reg, adventures in cooking, fashion chats and spot-on health tutorials and insights on grim bacteria, flu shots and all manner of vaccinations too.
Also, don’t miss the photos of her gorgeous, colourful wedding at St Peter’s on North Main Street in her feed (seriously THE DRESS) if you’re the nosey type (guilty).

3. Laura O’Mahony @lauralolslots
This Glanmire gal is a busy actress (she performs with comedy group, Cccahoots) and mam to two cute kiddos with husband, Shane.
Peppered with plenty of parenting and period humour, primary school maths, being ‘an unbearable ride’, the drudgery of healthy eating and ‘going Scandinavian’, her feed is an emotional rollercoaster that will make you do a LOL into your tea at least once a day.
If you need another fix she’s also in the new RTÉ Junior series, Body Brothers.

4. Fionnuala Jones @Fionnualajay
GoldenPlec sub-ed, Lonely Planet writer, ‘Callippo enthusiast’ and Love Island expert Fionnuala Jones miraculously still finds time to dish up quality Insta on everything from eyebrow grooming to The Great British Bake Off, complete with interpretive dance, natch.
Check out her podcast Bandwagons, where she joins co-host Bríd Browne to ‘talk about the things that other people are talking about’ too.

5. Trisha Lewis @trishas.transformation
This Cork-based chef first caught everybody’s attention with her badass approach to losing weight (you’ll have seen her on the Late Late Show discussing her 100lbs challenge with Ryan Tubridy) but it’s Trisha’s hilarious updates that keep us checking in on the hour.
Whether she’s swearing at gym machinery, motivating her 78,000 loyal ‘Transformers’, ripping her friends, sharing her hands-free bloopers or frightening the bejaysus out of her family and trainers, there’s never a dull moment in Trisha land.
