John, who was out in his black and amber ahead of the match yesterday, gave a bag of Queens to her family to celebrate her early morning Gold medal win.

Kellie Harrington is expected back in Ireland tomorrow, but there won't be a formal civic reception for the boxer.

Dublin City Council says there will be a 'further announcement' in the coming days about plans to mark the achievement.
