Foreign Affairs Minister's young daughter dies in hospital

The youngest daughter of Minister for Foreign Affairs Micheál Martin, has died today.


Seven-year-old Léana Martin passed away peacefully at Great Ormonde Street Hospital in London this afternoon, after a short illness.

She was the youngest of four children - two sons and two daughters - aged between seven and 15.

Her parents and family were at her bedside.

Micheál and Mary Martin say they are heartbroken at the loss of their daughter, describing her as "a beautiful light" in their lives.

My condolences to the family
