@TT1221 - OMG, couldn't agree with you more. Besides, unlike so many of the upper echelon millionaires and most assuredly the billionaires, he's EARNED every penny. He's quite the gentleman and his dancing--is beyond the gods. Can any of us imagine the amount of arduous work he's put into his talent over many, many years. Yep, don't begrudge him a thing!! So pleased, too, that he chose Ireland to buy his palace. I'm an Irish woman at heart! :) :)

When he was leaving the arena just a handful of Us were standing on the sidewalk waving goodbye to him and his limo stopped! Michael Flatley steps out of the vehicle greeted and chatted with us about the show, he was the nicest ever! we couldn't believe it! Michael signed our programs took pictures with us and he signed my Tribute to America Leather Jacket in silver pin! Thank You Michael for your kindness, the very best to You!

Everything he' got he's worth having because he actually worked so very much for a good period of his life....his youth...May you be blessed Mr Flatley for the joy you brought us ! Be healthy and enjoy life as many years as possible !

I’m so glad he bought this gorgeous place and restored it...very few could have pulled it off, but after all he’s done for Irish dance and Ireland herself, it’s fitting that he continued it by restoring a piece of her history as well. Some say he’s nothing but a raving egomaniac, but it’s simply not true. He has worked bloody hard to be as excellent as he is and was in this art form of dance. He is simply the best in the world, and it’s a well deserved title. There’s no doubt about it though - like so many, love has smoothed out the rougher edges in him. He’s even more appealing now at his age than he was when he exploded into the public eye 30+ years ago in Riverdance.

Well said Wendy. I often feel Michael Flatley, Jack Charlton and Micheal O'Leary (like him or not) did massive amounts to bring about the Celtic Tiger. I know it didn't end well but we are well into recovery now and things will never be the same as before the Tiger.

It's absolutely beautiful and more power to Michael for spending his well earned money restoring it.

Michael Flatley employed generations of craftspeople and artisans in the restoration of Castle Hyde- deliberately making sure that specialist crafts survived and were handed on among craftspeople all over Ireland. Another of his significant contributions to the Arts in Ireland. Thank you Michael.

I've met Michael, had a great chat with him, lovely he is and very friendly man,

I saw Michael Flatley in Lord of the dance in person with my mother in law & must admit how spectacular the experience was! He & his troupe works so hard! Michael deserves everything nice in life!

Believe it or not Mr Flatley is from the Southside of Chicago!!! His family lived in Beverly neighborhood. He went to Brother Rice High school. I ran into I’m at a hospital in Oak Lawn, where I worked, when his father had surgery there. It was before I knew who he was. A few days after that I went to see Lord of the Dance. What a shocker for me!! He’s brilliant.

@Cristina F Are you humble enough to consider that YOU are wrong about Jesus? Could you possibly consider that Jesus is FAR FAR GREATER than your limited religious mind could possibly imagine? Do not worry about Mr. Flatley and how he is with "God"... better YOU should re-consider your own understanding. Hint: Grace, the REVEALING Power of "God" WILL ... guaranteed... smash EVERY BELIEF your finite mind has EVER held... and you will come to KNOW "God" in a whole NEW way. As for religion... it is clueless when it comes to Jesus and "God". Prepare to be humbled. Jesus came to offer (those who were currently ready) far more than heaven. Just something to contemplate... or not.

How beautiful truly lovely..he has put so much love into this home into every detail..wish I could visit it..thanks for sharing this piece of history..a talented and blessed man

Good for him, he deserves it for all that hard work and his skill of dancing bought him such a reward to achieve this beautiful home 😍

His imagination is as beautiful as his dancing. Bless you My Flatley!

I saw this guy's London home he's beyond class.

No one deserved success more than MICHAEL. He was a GREAT ARTIST. It appears he was and remained a GENTLEMAN all his life. I especially LOVED his reference to his "DAD" when he "quoted" him, asking for "A PINT", "Mike go get me a pint. But don't tell your Mom for God's sake." Very touching!

Michael sat in front of me in seventh grade history class. His sister Thoma danced at my parents’ twenty-fifth. God bless☘️

Glad to see the Riverdance paid off so well. I've certainly have enjoyed it over the last 30 years. He definitely deserves the success he's had with the joy he's given his fans

For me he has such sadness in his eyes, maybe the great times he shared with his beloved father were there. I love how he gave a nod to all Irish tradesmen that restored the house. And at the end he says "we dont talk about the other properties he has". Well done keeping yourself private Michael and I hope you find that person will respect & take on the house for the next 20 years. He can afford to wait for the right person.

God Bless you Michael for bringing what really matters to the table. xoxoxoxo

It's fantastic that Micheal restored this historic house so beautifully. It really is a gift to the Irish nation and future generations to enjoy. So many great houses were let go to ruin and it's heartbreaking when they go beyond repair.

Just WOW What a lovely man

I'm from Holland. I saw this man with his super group live in Ahoy in Rotterdam (where many famous artists performed and perform) and I always thought he was a huge arrogant person (turns out that it is all show) and then you see such an interview and how lovingly he speeks about his family, especially his father AND Ireland, I have to change my opinion about him. He has worked very hard for this. Blood sweat and tears as they say. And what a fantastic building.

What a beautiful, beautiful home.. very calm and soothing feel about it. Well done Michael.

I just read an article saying that Flatley still owns Castlehyde; pulled it from the market, because in the end, he couldn't bear to be separated from it. He feels a strong connection to the area, to the history and memories that go with the house and the land. Can't blame him. Hope he and his family continue to enjoy it.

Such a beautiful soul......honouring his heritage & family. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦☮️

Omg what a fabulous place. I'm so glad he saved it. He is so quiet and soft spoken here, yet so powerful on stage! What a gem he is ❤

Спасибо за уникальную возможность прикоснуться к гению! 👍

Beautiful restoration!

I HAVE A DREAM! He had a dream and an ambition, motivation and drive. It pays off if you apply it.

Beautiful mansion filled with opulence, taste, authenticity and comfort. The hard work paid off, shame its not occupied often as its just a dream place to dream big.

I used to think he was a pompous ass but boy I have changed my mind in the last few years. Now I think he is a down to earth gentleman!

Michael brought world focus and wonder about the great Irish nation - of which I am a proud member - with dance music and drama, and great story telling woven into it. But when you look at the wonderful dancers who carry on the stage productions that Michael started, as great as they undoubtably are, they're not Michael. It's his quiet confidence and vision and passion, and of course his amazing talent and skill that has enabled him to become the world renowned figiure he is. I raise a glass of the good stuff to ya my friend, and a wee snifter to follow. God love you and all who know you and love you...love and luck to you and family for the rest of your days.

Michael certainly seems to be a man with great instinct, respect, and humility. Whatever he does - he does with passion and perfection. His is a great talent, that he loves to share with others, and many times, gives the credit back to God for many things, he realizes his blessings, and is truly a grateful man. Any time I have heard him speak, he has always been gracious, polite and dignified. Such a far cry from the uncouth swearing and hateful rhetoric out of too may "celebrities" nowadays.
