Early days in acting
Amy Huberman, who was born and raised in Cabinteely in Dublin, took drama classes as a child.
Amy's TV acting career started in the early 2000s. Irish audiences were first introduced to the budding actress in 2002 when she starred in the RTE GAA drama series On Home Ground.
The show was set in a fictional small Irish town and saw a GAA club strive to win the country championship, something they have been unable to achieve so far. Amy's acting career blossomed from there. She went onto star in The Clinic for seven seasons from 2003 until 2009.
She played Daisy on the show and was nominated for an IFTA for Best Supporting Actress in 2008, 2009 and 2010 for her portrayal of the character.
Her acting took her across the water to the UK where she starred in the hit Comedy Central show Threesome, which follows a group of three friends who end up dealing with an unplanned pregnancy together.
In 2011, Amy scooped an IFTA for her role in the film Rewind in which she played recovering addict Karen.
Her other credits include Moone Boy, Heading Out For Dinner and The Stag. In 2017, Amy starred in RTE's Striking Out as solicitor Tara Rafferty, which earned her an IFTA for Best Actress.
Since then, she has starred in Cold Feet's reboot, ITV's Butterfly and Finding Joy.

Marriage and family with Brian O'Driscoll
Amy Huberman and former Irish rugby captain Brian O'Driscoll first met in a popular Dublin nightclub. She revealed to Doireann Garrihy on the Laughs of your Life podcast earlier this year that she first shared a kiss with Brian at the bar in Cafe En Seine in 2005.
According to Amy, she had very little idea who Brian was at the time, telling The Irish Times that "Art and sport are very different worlds". The pair started texting after that and in 2010, they tied the knot at Lough Rynn Castle in County Leitrim.
Now married for 12 years, the couple share three children together. They welcomed their daughter Sadie in 2013, son Billy in 2014 and Ted in 2020.
Writing, podcast and other ventures
Amy is a master of multiple trades, including writing and presenting. She released her first book Hello Heartbreak in 2009 and four years later in 2013, she released her second novel, I Wished For You.
Amy revealed earlier this year that she would be releasing her first children's book in 2022.
The Day I Got Trapped in My Brain will chart the journey of Frankie who, together with her little brother Fred, can disappear to Thoughtopolis, a magical world inside her head.
As well as being a writer, Amy presents the hugely popular Mammia & Me podcast which acts as a platform for parents to talk about their experiences.
She also welcomes special guests on her podcast which have included Brian Dowling, Pippa O'Connor, Barry Keoghan, Lucy Kennedy and Angela Scanlon.
