@the_irish_news: Irish Olympian Ciara Mageean has passed away, aged 34, following a battle with cancer. The Portaferry runner's death was announced through her social media pages this morning. Mageean announced her diagnosis in July 2025, just one year after bringing home the gold medal for Ireland in the 2024 European Championships for the 1500m race. Ciara married her long-term partner, Thomas Moran, on 12 October 2026, in Belfast.
