Andrew Moloney of ‘the Traitors Ireland’ Expecting First Child
Limerick man and The Traitors Ireland star Andrew moloney’s time at Slane Castle may have ended in banishment, but he has his sights set on a far bigger role: fatherhood.
Andrew discovered just weeks before filming that he and his wife Aisling are expecting their first child.
He became the latest player to be banished from Slane Castle on last night’s episode following a recruitment to become a Traitor by his dad Paudie.
The Kilmallock native can’t wait to become a Dad and said it will be a “whole new way of life.” Aisling is due to give birth on October 20.

“It’ll be a nice thing to have, especially after the traders, becuase it’s going to be such a come down. To come down from all the positivity and hype to just more positivity and more hype about something that’s just very special,I just can’t wait.”
Andrew currently lives in Douglas and he married his long-term partner, Aisling, in Cork last November. The Kilmallock man has been based in Cork for the past four years and he works as an assistant principal officer within the HR unit in the Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment.
Andrew said he was “so excited” to take part in the show and that he’d watched the UK and new Zealand versions previously.
“I applied for it just because I love the strategy behind it… I love the fact that it can go any way and it’s actually incredibly difficult to win and I’m probably one of these people who looks at it on the television and says, sure, I could do that easily. But by God, was I humbled really quickly inside there.” He added that he just wanted “to play the game to the fullest extent and just experience all of it.”
Andrew said the competition was very intense. “There’s no point in lying. It was very intense. It was real immersion into the game.”
He explained: “You’re in there in the environment of trying to figure out who the traitors were,from a faithful perspective and then you’re just constantly in your head,and you’re very worried about not slipping up in terms of what you say to others to make you look guilty or to make you look like a traitor.” Andrew said the only aspect of the Traitors game that he didn’t get to experience was to murder someone.
He goes home to Kilmallock every month or so and said he was home last weekend for a family visit.
