The whole world is talking about Ireland voting Yes to same-sex marriage - and celebrities are getting involved too!
As counting began across the country this morning it was clear early-on that the Yes side was coming out triumphant.
Here's how some celebrities reacted to the news...both home and abroad.....
Huge sense of pride over what has happened in Ireland, tempered by massive sadness that I'm missing the bloody party. #therealvictimhere

Not surprised about the extent of Yes victory. Hopefully international + Dublin media will now have a less patronising attitude to Irish ppl

"Everything seems to be going the Yes sides way..." "Much higher than expected..." "overwhelmingly Yes"....
