Former president Mary McAleese has said she is not troubled by the idea of gay marriage.
She has also revealed that when Cardinal Bernard Law accused her of being “a very poor Catholic president” in front of dignitaries she told him it was none of his business to tell her whether she was or not.
Mrs McAleese made her comments in a pre-recorded television interview with Gay Byrne.
On The Meaning of Life programme, to be broadcast tonight, she reaffirmed her strong support for marriage and the family.
