Cathy lives with her husband, John, their twin sons, Dylan and Murray, and their three dogs in Enniskerry, Co Wicklow. Her role for UNICEF is a Global Parent, which means raising funds and awareness for children orphaned by or living with HIV/AIDs. Her trademark is warm story-telling and she consistently tops the bestseller lists around the world with books which deal with themes ranging from relationships and marriage to depression and loss, but always with an uplifting message and strong female characters at the heart.Ĭathy also has a passionate interest in childrenâ€™s rights and is an ambassador for UNICEF Ireland. She did not become a full-time writer until she had written another two books, and finally decided to leave the world of journalism in 2001, moving to HarperCollins Publishers at the same time. As the sisters try to find their way to lasting happiness, fate has a few surprises in store as the past makes a sudden appearance in the present. However, her overwhelming love was always fiction and she published her first international bestseller, Woman To Woman, in 1997. She initially worked for thirteen years as a newspaper journalist with a national Irish Sunday newspaper, where she worked in news, features, along with spending time as an agony aunt and the paperâ€™s film critic. Cathy Kelly was born 12 September 1966 in Belfast, Northern Ireland, but raised in Dublin.
