H.R.H. Prince Díolún

Prince Díolún is the heir to the Irish throne as created by and awarded to High King Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair in 1167. He was born in exile on 12 December, 2001. He still lives in exile, hoping one day to return to Ireland.

​

He can boast impressive relations. Not just lords and kings, but also Irish heroes like Michael Collins and Fr. Michael Murphy. One of his ancestors, Edward Murphy, was exiled to America for partaking in the Fenian Rising.
