Andrew McGinley fears losing family home as he seeks divorce from child killer wife

Grieving Dad Andrew McGinley has revealed he wants to divorce the wife who killed his children - but he fears losing their family home.

In an exclusive interview with The Star today, Mr McGinley whose children Conor, 9, Darragh, 7, and Carla, 3, were killed by their mother Deirdre in January 2020, says he’s come to the painful decision to end their marriage - and revealed his fears that he may have to sell their family home in the process. “I’m moving forward with the divorce and I may have to sell up with it,” Andrew told this paper in an interview at his home in Newcastle, West Dublin where the horrific incident occurred on January 24, 2020.

“I may have to sell the house if that is contested, which saddens me. If she is looking for half the house then I may have to sell the house.” Andrew also revealed that Ms Morley, who is in Dublin’s Central Mental Hospital after being found not guilty of the children’s murders by reason of insanity, is currently refusing to see him.
