Actress Susie Amy has praised her ex-boyfriend Rob Kearney.

The former Footballers Wives star (35) dated the Irish rugby star (30) for three years before splitting in 2012.

While Kearney is now dating UCD student Jess Redden (22) for more than two years and Amy was recently linked to tv presenter Gethin Jones, Amy said she wanted to respect how private her ex is, but wishes him the best.

"You'd struggle to meet somebody with more integrity and from a nicer family than Rob. He's so private, so I don't want to say much about him, but I honestly wish him the best in every way," she told VIP Magazine.

Amy is back on Irish shores for a stint treading the boards at the Bord Gais Energy Theatre in Rehearsal for Murder and said she's looking forward to catching up with old pals during her time here, including Amy Huberman.

"I have family in Mayo and lots of friends in Dublin so I can't wait to see them all. This is one of my favourite places. It's the most fun place to go out. I'll be catching up with Amy Huberman and other girlfriends, it'll be lovely."
