I can never get my head around how she can say "that" properly but not "the" or "thick". I hope she's teaching the kids to pronounce their th sounds correctly, unlike herself most of the time.

I don't think she can help it, I think it's a speech impediment

I've never heard of people being able to pronounce some th sounds at the start of words but not others? She says "that" fine?
 
All I hear is 'turty tree and a curd'. The lack of 'th' pronunciation really grates. 😵💫

She's been speaking like that since I started following her. She was wearing braces at the time. I'd imagine it's both her accent and she could be wearing a retainer or have a fixed brace behind her teeth.
Not all of us have plummy accents!! 😁 "T"s and "TH"s are softly spoken where I'm from 😇

No I know I don’t mind that but she says it’s blonde .. and it’s not . It’s great .. which is fine but just stop saying it’s blonde
Ahh ok i get you. Im not a fan of her blonde extensions tbh. I think the colour is wrong with the grey. I follow loads of silver sisters on insta and theres so many different ways to go grey. I took the easyish route and just stopped dying my hair but im not in the public eye so dont give a tit what people think but i think if i was in sineads position i would just have gradually gone grey and not gone to blonde. But thats just me. She could definitely do with a new hair style aswell.

I don’t think her hair is bad at all. Also think she looks great since getting the Botox

Agreed! We are Irish and some of us speak Hiberno English. I appreciate a genuine accent more than a made up one. Am sure she teaches the kids to say it properly.

It is a bit classist to critise someone's accent.

Diction and accents are two entirely different things.

"As nouns the difference between diction and accent is that diction is the effectiveness and degree of clarity of word choice, and presentation of said words while accent is a higher-pitched or stronger articulation of a particular syllable of a word or phrase in order to distinguish it from the others or to emphasize it."

Sinead's issue is diction.

Yes this ! I fully support the go grey but she is fighting it and she should be allowing it go Gray and embrace it .. I think it would look much bettter and suit her . This awful grey front and then half blonde and half grey roots with the terrrible terrible blonde extensions is not it! My sister is going grey and embracing and really suits her .. just I feel sinead is fighting it ans someone needs to advise her .. it looks awful

I’m similar age to sinead and going grey years. I’m also going for the blonde highlights and hiding the grey. I just can’t embrace it. Maybe I’m vain, or too self conscious or just being silly. But I work with the public and I’m just embarrassed of my roots. Not defending her, ‘cause I too think she’s gone too blonde and the extensions are awful

She can be blonde but just not that awful shade. She needs to change the tone completely
