Irish drag queen now calls Liverpool home after 'flourishing in city'

An Irish drag queen is now proud to call Liverpool her home.

Skarlett Skandal, known as Karl Milligan out of drag, has shared her story with the ECHO in light of St Patrick’s Day. While thousands - adorned in green - will be taking to the streets to celebrate, the 25-year-old will be hosting a gig as a drag performer - something she said wouldn’t have been possible if she never moved to Liverpool.

The Junkyard Golf Club worker came to the city with her best friend just over five years ago to study. Having polished off her education last year, Skarlett, who lives in the city centre, set her sights on making a name for herself throughout the Pride Quarter.
