Influencer Keelin Moncrieff was on RTÉ's Prime Time
Dublin influencer Keelin Moncrieff has come under fire after appearing on RTÉ Prime Time last night.
The influencer told the show how she cannot afford to buy a house near her family, despite making a “substantial salary."
In last night's episode it was reported that "according to one recent EU survey, more than two in three young adults in Ireland are living with their parents. The EU statistics agency, Eurostat, said that 68% of 18-34-year-olds in Ireland lived with their parents in sharp contrast to rates in many of our European neighbours."

Eoin McGee said "that life becomes difficult for young adults going on "a fourth or fifth date and they've nowhere to go back to afterwards. It makes life even more expensive. If you can only date at a restaurant and you've nowhere that you can call your own you have nowhere else to go except somewhere that is going to charge you money for being there it makes it very difficult just to progress with life stuff."
