Conor Murray's wife says online shop is using her name without permission
Joanna Cooper has called out a website selling pre-mixed cocktails that she claims is using her name without permission.
The influencer, wife of Irish rugby legend Conor Murray, heads up her Coops Cocktails brand that frequently appears on her social media.
Last year, the Derry woman launched her range of pre-mixed cocktails that retail at €35 a pop, including Pornstar, Lychee, and Espresso Martinis, and others classics like Cosmopolitan and Margarita.
Taking to Instagram, she called out a similar website that has also taken on the same Coops Cocktails branding – but she says they have done so without without seeking her consent.
"This is not my brand, coopscocktails.com are using my name without my consent,' she wrote alongside a screenshot of the website in question.

"We ONLY sell from coopscocktails.ie.
"[It's] so disheartening seeing customers ordering from there thinking it's coopscocktails.IE which is the only site I am affiliated with.'
On the copycat website's 'about us' page, they claim to be 'an Irish company, founded in 2023 by model and cocktail lover, Joanna Cooper, with the help of extremely talented Mixologists'.
"We pride ourselves in using only premium spirits and all natural ingredients, making it easy for you to enjoy high-end bar standard drinks at home.'
The website features drinks that share the same logo as Joanna's brand alongside similar flavours with altered branding.
