Sharlene Mawdsley steps out with All-Ireland winning partner at Tipp homecoming
It was a very busy day for the men in blue in gold, a day which started with a visit to Crumlin Hospital as Liam MacCarthy was introduced to some brave little Tipp fans.
The team then made the journey back home in the evening and rocked up to Semple Stadium at around 8.15pm following an evening of entertainment which included a performance from Una Healy.
On stage, the team soaked in the adulation from the fans as they celebrated their win with friends and family.
Adding star power to the occasion was Sharlene Mawdsley. The Tipperary native and Olympian appeared on stage with her partner, Tipp defender Mikey Breen, and the pair were captured in a lovely photograph showing the two of them holding the Liam MacCarthy Cup.
For Sharlene, Sunday's win would have been a poignant one as her father passed away suddenly at the beginning of June.
Mawdsley and Breen have formed something of a sporting power couple in recent times, with the sprinter going 'Instagram official' with the Tipp defender at the beginning of the Summer.
Yesterday, Mawdsley took to Instagram in the wake of Tipp's win, sharing a photo of herself with Breen on the Croke Park pitch along with the caption "Proud of you every day, but that little bit prouder today."

But this wasn't always the case, and when the initial branch of the shop opened its doors in 1944 it caused quite the stir On March 31 of the year, Locals quickly learned of the grand opening and flooded into the store in what the retailer's archives recall as a 'shopping frenzy.'
