Oscars 2024: Limerick hairstylist parties with pal Cillian Murphy at after party

Cillian Murphy won the Oscar for Best Actor

Limerick hairstylist, Gareth Bromell, partied with Cillian Murphy at the Oscars' after-party. 

Gareth helped his pal 'Cil' get ready for the Oscars' red carpet, which took place on Sunday.

Gareth prepped both Cillian's hair and his skin. 

The Castleconnell native became a household name after styling Taylor Swift’s hair. Since then, he has worked with A-list celebrities such as Phoebe-Waller Bridge, Lily Allen, Claire Foy, as well as Geri Halliwell.

The hairstylist attended the local primary school in Castleconnell and is the son of Lily Bromell and former rugby winger Mick Bromell, who played with Thomond RFC, Bohemians, as well as Munster in the late 70s.

Sharing a few snaps of himself and Cillian after the ceremony, he said: "What a beautiful night full of joy with lots of tears ♥️☘️ love you Cill. Congratulations ♥️♥️♥️♥️"

Cillian Murphy won Best Actor for his role in Oppenheimer. 

Oppenheimer swept the Oscars, winning seven prizes, including Best Actor for Cillian Murphy and Best Director for Christopher Nolan.

In his acceptance speech, an overwhelmed Cillian Murphy said: "I want to thank my incredible team.... Yvonne McGuinness, my partner in life and art, my two boys, Malachy and Aran, who are sitting up there. I love you so much. I'm a very proud Irishman standing here tonight."
