Taoiseach Enda Kenny had to travel all the way to America to meet his Donegal cousins!

The Fine Gael leader travelled to Boston where he attended a function at the Seaport Hotel.

But he got a bit of a shock when he was visited by his second cousins, Linda Homsey and Jimmy Nelson.

Both are related to the Taoiseach on his late mother Eithne McGinley’s side and both have been to Donegal on many occasions.

The late Mrs Kenny, who died last year, was originally form Glencolmcille.

Mr Kenny told his two cousins to make sure they call the next time they are in Ireland.
