Maybe I’m being harsh or unfair but I think she deserves to be outed so people are made aware of this behaviour. Number 1 she has been doing it for years and number 2 she clearly has not learned her lesson after being caught by Johnny. If she had owned up and been remorseful fair enough- But no, instead when caught she first made the muireann page and when she was caught from that she made the shannon page to try put all the blame on this shannon. And even then after all of that she made another page trying to talk to Johnny again pretending to be a gaurd.

Why should anyone deserve to get away with that? As the psychologist said people need to be taught to be remorseful for her actions and she’s clearly showing no signs of remorse. Doesn’t need to be a ‘witch hunt’ but fucking hell she’s been at this for years now. People citing mental health etc IMO she’s just unhappy in her life because she’s well enough to come up with a highly believable fake page(s) and con numerous men. It’s the most highly believable catfish I’ve ever seen anyway. Yes she may need help but she also deserves to face her actions when she clearly isn’t learning. If shes left off she’ll take a break and be at it again in 6 months.

I dont think she's obsessed with Johnny or any of her targets. She likes being associated with the celebrity status. I wouldnt be surprised if she's already registered on here.
One thing is for sure, she was definitely at the 2Johnnies 3Arena gig. Would love to have been seated next to her when the guys started the live segment on the catfishing story! Can you imagine the panic, for all she knew she was about to be revealed to a live audience :ROFLMAO:

It’s the guy who was texting / calling her for 3 years, called it a “relationship” & used photoshopped photos of them on his profile that takes me to the fair.
Like does ANYONE on here believe they could daily text & call someone for 3yrs but never meet them? Or even FaceTime them? AND call it a relationship.
now that is insane behaviour in my book!

I also think this all makes these guys look like such saps! The lure of a hot looking woman! Jesus Christ. Surely the hottest woman on earth could be an absolute dose of shite in real life!

Just throwing this out there. Is Aoife a little fame hungry? Goes on First Dates, gets into a relationship with an 'Irish' famous person (which in theory is not being THAT famous). Now releases a voice note of herself giving her side of the story and wanting to get in on the action.

A few of my old fuks/guys I have dated/acquaintances have appeared on First Dates, Ireland 's fittest families or You're a Star and they are always the same, fame hungry folks.

I don't mean to victim blame, but if it her on the First Dates show it is a bit of an aha moment.

The fact that JB was very chilled about his personal safety is another thing that sticks out for me - he went to some random house to meet someone who does not have a photo on her Whatsapp that he has met online (big red flag), and when she's not there he stays and meets 3 other women (2 of which he's never met before), stays for an hour and then gets into a car with one of them to go to Thurles and then encourages her to drive him right to his front door - that whole thing is wild. Because for women, we're always told that the first meeting with someone from the online world should always be in a public place, and definitely do not go to their house. But let's say we did end up going to their house for the first in-person meeting, we'd send a friend the guy's phone number, name, picture and address in advance (just in case we were never heard from ever again). We'd also prob text 10 mins after arriving to say that we're okay / still alive. But imagine knowing your date isn't there when you walk into the house, and then being alone with 3 unknown guys? I wouldn't be sitting around having a cup of tea and then a full fry for an hour. I'd be out of there, never mind getting in a stranger's car and then convincing them to drive me to my front door. It's such a good insight into how our lives are so different, and really I'm just envious of how men don't have to consider these things, lucky them.

So let me get this right:

JB breaks up with Aoife two weeks before Christmas - let's say the 10th of December
JB blocks Cora on Insta 3 weeks before Valentine's day - let's say January 23rd
He had been in contact with Cora for 4 weeks - so let's say he contacted her on the 27th of December.

That means he left it a whole two weeks after breaking up with his live-in girlfriend to message Cora!!!

Seriously? All that talk about not being on a date since the breakup? How could you have been on a date JB - you only had time to eat your turkey dinner and pull a few Christmas crackers!

I thought he had been moping around for a few months getting over his heartbreak! All that talk about him being vulnerable - they all went to great lengths to make that point.
The only cracker he didn't pull was Cora 😂😂

And that voice note was clearly sent to a group of girls presumably who she would trust and is friends with. If one of my friends forwarded on my voice note so that it ended up on tattle they could go fuck themselves and it would be easy to pinpoint

Hi all, I actually created an account just so I could comment here.

Listened to this over the past two weeks and it's almost like listening to the Serial podcast way back when! Absolutely mad stuff.

I know this is a gossip site, but I have to disagree with the public identification / outing of Nikki and Footballer Paul.

Like we know she has done terrible stuff and that she needs help. But publicly ID'ing her so she can be vilified online is not going to help the thing.
Also in fairness to footballer Paul, he actually spoke to the lads in confidence and it's not right that his ID should be implied by the post above.

Side note: seriously impressive sleuthing by people on this thread.

The lads went to great lengths to use pseudonyms on the podcast for all involved. I think any posts earlier that identify Nikki or Footballer Paul should be edited or deleted (unpopular opinion for a gossip site I know!).

Like we can all continue to discuss this madness without having to explicitly name the names!
I can definitely see where you're coming from and there is definitely a concern regarding the mental health of those involved, but on the other hand, I'm really sick of poor mental health being used as an excuse to treat people poorly. Her actions themselves have put others at risk and in pain. There's a little thing called consequences, which our actions have, and this one seems yet to do so despite this going on for years.

I do agree that football Paul he hasn't done anything wrong and it seems unfair his identity has been outed

Struggling to see your point of view I'm afraid she's been doing this for 8+ years now?

I just think the whole thing is highly embellished and I do not believe it all. I’m not saying that it’s not all true or anything like that but there’s a lot of details that I believe are exaggerated which I think most people on here would agree and have done on other threads. I’m not defensive of her, I’m just explaining my thoughts on it.


No it’s not “normal” and I also agree with this. I think she’s a good looking girl as well and doesn’t need to hide behind anything and she obviously has a good personality or she wouldn’t be able to hold people on for so long. She has obviously been with footballer Paul a long time now and I don’t know if they’re still together but they do need to mind themselves and I hope nothing bad happens to anyone involved in this. If playing hurling/camogie or football helps with their mental health, well I think there’s no problem with that.
I’ve been getting annoyed with all the accusations of people being Niamh on this thread but I cannot imagine anyone other than Niamh herself trying to play down her actions, compliment her looks (I’m not saying she’s ugly but I wouldn’t notice her in a crowd) and suggest it’s not utterly brazen of her to turn up to an event filled with people she probably catfished considering she didn’t even show her face at the school she works at.

what she did was disgusting, accepting nudes from men which she got under false pretences. Whether she asked or not, she received them under deception as I doubt they would have sent them knowing she was Niamh (or she wouldn’t be catfishing). She is playing on men’s emotions, controlling them emotionally by pretending to be a love interest.

she’s unhinged, deceptive and dangerous. I can’t imagine she is welcome anywhere. Has she no shame?!

There may be no demand for a 2 Johnnies thread at all but has anyone listened to the GAA catfish story on last week's podcast?! Absolute insanity!
Jeepers. I guess there was demand 😂 Anyone have suggestion for a new thread title before we proceed? I'm gonna go with The 2 Johnnies #2 Better Call Paul

I see where the lads are coming from putting this out there and it's by the far the most insane story I've ever come across. Slightly worried that it's going to take on a life of its own now and end in tragedy.

Niki is completely in the wrong and clearly needs some sort of mental health treatment a long with anyone who was complicit in the catfishing. I think it's right to call it out and the lads did a great job in terms of maintaining some sort of anonymity but it's clearly not been enough.

I also think Paul was involved because he was one of the most important components of the whole thing working as he gave legitimacy to it.

I'm a fan of the 2 johnnies and think they'd handled it as best they could. I just hope to god this doesn't end badly because now it's in the public space with so much media attention and those involved really aren't in a stable frame of mind anything could happen.

This has serous netflix documentary vibes off it just hoping it doesn't end badly.

She’s been outed before and lost her job over it. That wasn’t enough to stop the behaviour so do you really think a few people identifying her on tattle is gonna change anything? You could almost understand this off a kid in college but a grown woman - it’s beyond belief. No sympathy for her.
