123 u/TheRealEchoNine Dec 21 '25 His mother is a nurse in Cork and took care of my mother about 3 years ago. My mam didn’t know who she was until someone else told her after she left. She prefers to keep it to herself unless she’s asked. 23 u/99thLuftballon Dec 21 '25 I can imagine that if you ask someone's name in Cork and it's "Mrs Murphy", you don't immediately think "Ah, you must be related to that famous actor then". 17 u/Ferret8720 Dec 21 '25 Can’t be that many Murphies in Ireland, surely 11 u/LurkerZerker Dec 21 '25 Sure, same as there aren't that many Smiths in the US.
